Nokia has been producing solid, reliable hardware but has lacked engaging software in the recent years. In efforts to recapture its former glories, Nokia partnered with Microsoft to enable its phones to be shipped with Windows Phone. Nokia unveiled the new Nokia Lumia 900 Windows Phone available exclusively on the AT&T network in the US and is Nokia’s first 4G LTE handset. Lumia 900 brings Windows Mobile 7.5 a.k.a Mango with 250 new features including IE9, threaded messages, improved Xbox LIVE integration, multi-tasking and improved live tiles allowing more information to be displayed on the homescreen. The Windows Phone user interface comes with bold graphics, clear typography, and fast navigation, the phone allows people to spend less time figuring out what to do with it, and more time using it.
Nokia’s third Lumia smartphone, the Lumia 900 sports appealing design on the outside and rich social and Internet experience on the inside, delivering a rich content experience from a phone that still fits easily in your hand. Being the first of Nokia’s Windows Phone based range to feature high-speed LTE connectivity, Nokia Lumia 900 churns out incredibly fast connection speeds while on the move. Available in cyan and black matte, the Nokia Lumia 900 integrates well an attractive polycarbonate unibody with the
Gorilla Glass display. Similar like Lumia 800, there is a unobtrusive hard camera and volume keys at the right edge of the device and the microUSB charging port and headphone jack at the bottom of the device. Under the hood, Lumia 900 boasts a 1.4 GHz Qualcomm CPU, 512 MB of RAM, and 16 GB of on-board storage
The Nokia Lumia 900′s 4.3 inch AMOLED screen is an absolute joy to behold. Featuring ClearBlack technology, the display not only delivers superior viewing and touch experiences, but is also designed to reduce reflections for crystal clear images indoors and outdoors. The colourful Windows Phone OS Live Tiles interface really shines through and practically beams from the device. The capacitive touchscreen was responsive and we had no problems typing on the Gorilla Glass display. Camera-wise, there’s an 8-megapixel camera at the rear with a 28mm f/2.2 Carl Zeiss lens with a dual-LED flash and a front-facing f/2.4 wide-angle lens that’s great for wide angle shots. Lumia 900 comes with longer lasting 1830 mAH battery so that people can do more without worrying about recharging. Our verdict, Nokia has definitely stepped into the right direction with Windows Phone, offering great powerful hardware combined with user friendly operating system making it one of the most promising phones of 2012.
