Info about Nokia Lumia 800
Nokia Lumia 800Hardware and styling
The phone comes packed in a small gift like box which includes
the standard contents - a handset, charger, USB cable, an earphone, and
paper manuals.
One look and you know that Nokia didn't bother too much in
investing on a new design. The Lumia 800 looks like a N9 clone, albeit
with a different soul.
The phone is sleek and looks handsome. My review unit was a matt
black. The left side is completely expanse, while the right side is
loaded and includes lock/power on and off button, volume rocker and a
capture button.
On the bottom is the cleanly drilled speaker. Yes, only one. The
top includes a 3.5mm socket, a flap for the micro USB port and a SIM
card tray that accepts only micro SIM card (this means that you may need
to ask your mobile service provider for a new SIM as your existing one
may be incompatible, or if you are more adventurous you can chop your
SIM to convert it into a micro SIM).
The micro USB flap opens when it is pressed from the one side and
the SIM card tray can be taken out only when the flap for the micro USB
port is open. It might sound a bit troublesome, but given that I don't
swap SIM cards every day, this doesn't seem to be too much of a hassle.
However, the flap that covers the micro USB part looks delicate and
chances are you may accidentally break it.
For a phone of its segment, I was disappointed by the absence of a
front-facing camera. Also, as I love notification LEDs, not finding one
on the Lumia 800 was a minor disappointment.
On the back is an 8 megapixel auto focus camera with Carl Zeiss
optics and dual LED flash. Weighing 142g, the phone is slightly heavier
than Nokia N9 that weighs 135g. But in terms of thickness, both are
equally thick at 12.1mm. However the HTC Radar, which also runs the same
OS, is both lighter and thinner than the Nokia Lumia 800.
Something else that was annoying was that when I plugged in a
totally drained out Lumia 800, it just didn't display whether it was
charging itself or not. Users shouldn't be left guessing.
DisplayThe cellphone has a rounded 3.7-inch AMOLED ClearBlack cup touchscreen display display screen with 800x480 p picture resolution. The ClearBlack display does reduce insights on the display and helps graphic picture excellent, especially exterior. The shades of black are fully black and it also becomes challenging to tell apart where the display comes to an end.And the rounded display gives a pleasurable touching experience. Using left to right is actually very simple on the rounded display. The cellphone also has a Gorilla cup front that helps secure the display from marks, comes, and lumps, thereby giving a sense of security.Though the cellphone has obtained its looks from Htc N9, but the display size deviates. A 3.9-inch section on the Htc N9 has been decreased to 3.7-inch on the Lumia 800 to provide Enthusiasm windows Phone important factors.Even though the cell phone's display is razor-sharp, razor-sharp and specific, but it does not go with the picture of Samsung's HD Extremely AMOLED and Apple's Retina display. But the lack of representation is an benefits for the Lumia 800.Operating method and UIThe N9 is the one and only MeeGo cellphone, but the Htc Lumia 800 is one of the many Enthusiasm windows cellular phones that you can buy. Htc is checking on its components difference to keep itself prior to other Enthusiasm windows Phone competition.The cellphone offers an eye-catching and user-friendly program and the touching is quite sensitive. The person interface is quite eye-catching, yet easy. In the first look, the person interface appeals to you a lot, but over some time period, you might start finding it a bit tedious. I have knowledgeable the HTC mouth, New samsung Omnia W and Htc Lumia 800, and now it no longer appeals to me in the way it did at first. But a first cooking timer will be satisfied.My co-worker Soumyadip Choudhury had published a evaluation of the Enthusiasm windows Phone 7.5 Apple company OS and I don't think I have to recurring the same things over in my own terms. Excerpts:"The first thing that hits the person on a Apple company method is the beauty of its City program. Flooring are indeed an eye-catching and a welcome break from the icon-based displays. It is also fast and sensitive. There are hardly and lags and stutters.The Stay Flooring is recognized as one of the most improvements of the OS. The tiles on the desltop have a life of their own and are not merely techniques to release applications. A wonderful idea, but unfortunately, I am yet to see an app use it in a way that could create me go "Wow!". I still like the notice bar on Os (It also influenced Apple company enough to include a replicated in the iOS 5). The notice bar attracts my attention in a way the Stay Flooring hasn't yet been able to, even though they are more eye-catching. The style in which some designers are using Stay Flooring end up complicated the person, particularly when the marketing vanishes to only display modified content.Windows Phone 7.5 incorporates your Tweets, Facebook or myspace and Linkedin records to give a more public experience at one position, but to practical see the wealth of the web sites you cannot depend only on the ancient OS intergrated,. This means that you need to set up individual applications. Failures a part of the objective, doesn't it?The person interface is user-friendly and easy to use. Not too many levels to explore. It also should not take most customers very extensive to get used to. This simpleness can be a big benefits, especially in gaining new cellular phone customers.Windows Phone Apple company comes loaded with all the functions that we anticipate a cellular phone to have and suits the rivalry on efficiency. It also allows easy Wi-Fi tethering that allows you to reveal your Also with other gadgets.The Apple company comes with Web Internet explorer 9 as the standard internet browser. One issue there is that many websites do not acknowledge IE9 on Apple company as a cellular internet browser and provide the esteem computer edition instead. No mistake of Windows though.Something that I found enjoyable was the Apple company needs a cellphone reboot when I tried to create certain changes. A Enthusiasm windows esteem computer OS hangover maybe? Also was a wee bit annoyed when the cellphone requested for a Enthusiasm windows Stay ID. I had to the begining my head a few times to remember the experience.If Apple company (and its successors) grow to be the success that Enthusiasm (and Nokia) wish it to be, it may as a get down effect increase some of Windows dropping userbase on its online resources.The largest disadvantage is the option applications on the Industry and also the madness that the position seems to be in. With so many unofficial applications, especially news applications, it becomes very challenging to individual the rice from the chaff. Maybe not Apple-strict but Enthusiasm should ensure some basic gatekeeping and cleaning to keep the position in order. It will benefit them a lot in the extensive run. I couldn't find a easy screen-capture app in there and had to set up one personally.Also am not sure if designers are taking the foundation very seriously. For example, the Ereader app for Enthusiasm windows Mobile does not have many functions that are available on the Ereader Os app. I am not quite sure whom to position the responsibility on.Microsoft has made it challenging (and expensive) to set up non-Marketplace applications, even though they have given ChevronWP7's Enthusiasm windows Phone fitness center device their delights it still isn't as easy as on Os.For me, Apple company became rewarding than predicted. I too was at first amazed at Nokia's plans to bet its cellular phone future on Enthusiasm application. But now on suffering from the Apple company practical has it seems to be the best bet both for Htc as well as us customers. It provides more reliable rivalry to the industry and will therefore power the current industry management to be more revolutionary. We love being ruined for alternatives.There is no questioning that Enthusiasm windows Phone Apple company is eye-catching to the face, but as in romantic interactions, looks matter only at first. Soon the other primary attributes take over. In marketplaces such as Indian the Apple company isn't contending with the iOS but with Os. The feature-rich Ice Treatment Meal may create it a little challenging for Enthusiasm and Htc to create a hole or dimple in the growing Os industry in Indian. But I am sure that Enthusiasm will not let go of this opportunity and will soon reach back with Enthusiasm windows 8, the managing method may meet Windows PC, cellular phones, and supplement systems."Besides when the cellphone was synced with Zune, I couldn't access advertising information and neither could visit the Industry (even after the synchronisation was complete). It was a turn-off for me. To look through advertising on the cellphone, I had to close the Zune application on the PC.The Htc Lumia 800 (along with other Enthusiasm windows Phone devices), can handle only choose few Wireless person information. The Lumia 800 does not support computer file transactions over Wireless. I tried to couple it with other gadgets via Wireless, but all in useless.With the Htc Lumia 800, the company provides some specific applications like Htc Generate and Htc Charts on it. The Htc Generate app changes your mobile into a sat nav method and provides routing services such as speech aided turn-by-turn guidelines.
Camera:
The cellphone is designed with an 8 mega-pixel digicam with f/2.2 Carl Zeiss Tessar contact, auto-focus, dual-LED display and 3x zoom lens. It is the same contact that the company had used in its Htc N8 cellphone, whose digicam is still regarded as the best digicam on a cell cellphone in the market.
Undoubtedly, the Lumia 800's digicam creates fantastic and razor-sharp pictures, but in low-light circumstances, the digicam isn't able to enlighten. The Lumia 800's macro setting also didn't produce sufficient outcomes. Also the cellphone does not assistance driving while documenting movie.
A person can long click the side-mounted digicam option to get into the digicam app. As the person shoes anywhere on the display, the digicam gets prepared to concentrate and auto-expose the picture based on the information in a particular world.
It provides various alternatives to personalise pictures such as moments (backlight, seaside, candlelight, and so on), visibility value, results (normal, monochrome, adverse and sepia), sparkle decrease and more.
In movie setting, the digicam conducted quite well and taken razor-sharp 720 HD movie at 30 supports per second, but in low lumination circumstances, it did not stay up to my objectives. Also the cellphone cannot history video clips at 1080p. This is a Catch-22 scenario for Htc. Individual core-phones cannot photograph 1080p movie and the Windows Phone OS does not assistance dual-core processor chips.
While the lack of 1080p documenting is not the loss of life knell, it just give competition an benefits.
It seems that an 8 mega-pixel digicam is becoming a typical for higher-end cellular phones. We in comparison the outcomes from a New samsung Universe Be aware, Apple company iPhone 4S with that of the Htc Lumia 800 and discovered that the Lumia 800's digicam is far from the best in city.
