Along with Lumia 810 and 928, this model will not get the FM Radio support upon updating to Windows Phone "Amber".[9] Reasons range from the model not having the FM radio chip[10] to the design of the casing (and earphone plug) not supporting the connection for the antenna required.[11]

Reception

Engadget reviewed the phone very positively. It praised its battery life, performance, and value for money. It noted that the camera was not very good, but okay considering that the 620 is a budget phone.[13]

James Rogerson of TechRadar in his review wrote: "There's not a whole lot that the Nokia Lumia 620 does wrong. As an all-round, jack of all trades budget handset it does a great job. We'd love it if the screen was slightly bigger or it had a little bit more RAM, but for the price we can't really complain. The only real issue is the battery, and that's an issue to some extent with every Windows Phone 8 right now."[14]
