As we mentioned earlier Lumia 800 takes its design inspiration from the Nokia n9, the outer casing of the device is made from machined polycarbonate, and it looks very slick and stylish, definitely one of the best looking smartphones Nokia has produced for some time, aside for the N9.
The Nokia Lumia 800 features a 3.7 inch ClearBlack AMOLED display, which is encased in Gorilla Glass, and the display is very good, everything looks clear and sharp, and it works pretty well outside in direct sunlight.
Th3 3.7 inch display on the Lumia 800 features an 800 x 480 pixel resolution, text and websites don’t look as good on the Lumia 800 as other devices with a higher resolution display and text on some website can be a little hard to read at times, and text also looks slightly pixelated, although overall the display on the Lumia 800 is pretty good, photos and video look great on the handsets screen.
Nokia Lumia 800 And Windows Phone 7
The Lumia 800 features the latest version of Microsoft’s mobile OS, Windows Phone 7.5 Mango, which we really liked, the user interface is great, a refreshing change form the UI’s of Apple’s iOS and Google’s Android OS.
Everything fells really fast on the Lumia 800 and Windows Phone Mango, we were expecting things to feel a little slow compared to other devices considering the single core processor, but it doesn’t.
Microsoft’s Windows Phone Marketplace seems to be growing steadily, and whilst it doesn’t have anywhere near as many apps as Apple’s iOS or Google’s Android there are still some pretty cool apps available for Windows Phone handsets.
The Lumia 800 comes with a number of different Nokia Apps for Windows Phone built in, like their free navigation app, Nokia Drive and also Nokia Nokia Maps and Nokia Music.
Overall I really enjoyed using Windows Phone 7 on the Nokia Lumia 800, and the built in Nokia apps are great, the Nokia Drive is probably one of the best navigation apps we have seen on a smartphone, and it comes bundled with the device.
