Nokia unveiled two new smartphones based on its new operating system, Microsoft's Windows Phone instead of its Symbian or MeetGo software. Children meet the Lumia 800 and 710, two new smartphones that Nokia hopes would help them get back in the mobile phone scene.
Lumia 800 is obviously the high end model between the two. It sports a rather curvy design and based on the picture, its 3.7-inch 800x480 AMOLED screen seem to occupy most of its body. Inside this device is a 1.4 GHz processor, with hardware acceleration and graphics processor. For those who like snapping their photos using their phones, the 800 comes with an 8-megapixel camera. It has a dedicated button to instantly share your photos online. It has a hefty 16GB internal storage for your photos and music.
This baby will come in three colors, cyan, magenta and black. It is now available for pre-order in Europe but will be available in select Asian countries later this year. Don't jump for joy yet because most likely, the Lumia 800 will not reach our shores until early 2012.
Nokia wanted to bring the Lumia experience to more people in the world so they also introduced a more affordable phone, the Nokia Lumia 710. Like its higher end sibling, this model comes with the same 1.4 GHz processor, with hardware acceleration and graphics processor as that of the 800. However, this one comes with 8GB internal storage and a 5-megapixel camera.
Both handsets runs on the lates Windows Phone 7.5 Mango operating system. It will also have apps exclusively available to Nokia Phones and optimized for the Windows Phone operating system. Among these apps are Nokia Drive, which delivers a full-fledged personal navigation device (PND) with free, turn-by-turn navigation and dedicated in-car-user-interface; and Nokia Music introducing MixRadio, a free, global, mobile music-streaming application that delivers hundreds of channels of locally-relevant music.
The Lumia 710 will be released later this year in some Asian countries. Just like the Lumia 800, this device could be available in the local market by early 2012.
