We tested the Nokia Lumia 800 with UK mobile carrier Three, and call quality and reception on the device is excellent, and voice calls sounded clear, pretty much what you would expect.
With regards to battery life, the Lumia 800 features a 1,450 mAh battery, and there have been a number of reports of problems with the Nokia Lumia 800 battery.
Nokia has released a statement concerning the battery problems, and they will release a software update that is designed to fix the issue early next year.
Luckily the Nokia Lumia 800 we tested for this review didn’t suffer from the battery problems, and we were able to test it out properly over the last week.
The battery on the Lumia 800 is pretty good, heavy users should get at least a full days usage out of the device, whilst average users would probably only have to charge the handset every other day.
Conclusion
I was quite impressed with the Nokia Lumia 800, the smartphone features an excellent design, probably one of the best looking Windows Phone devices we have tested.
It certainly feels like a quality smartphone, just what you would expect from Nokia in terms of the build quality, the AMOLED display is really nice, and that paired with Windows Phone 7.5 Mango makes the Lumia 800 a great device to use.
My first ever mobile phone was a Nokia handset, and I have had a number of Nokia mobile phones over the years, although I haven’t owned a Nokia handset for quite a few years, probably about 10, the Nokia Lumia 800 is the first Nokia smartphone that would make me consider buying a Nokia phone again.
If you are in the market for a new smartphone or specifically a Windows Phone smartphone, then the Lumia 800 is definitely worth considering, have a look at the photo gallery below.
The handset we tested in this review was from UK mobile carrier Three, the Nokia Lumia 800 is available on Three with a range of different mobile contracts in the UK, it is also available from a number of other mobile operators.
