Key Features of the Nokia Lumia 800
The Nokia Lumia 800 is Nokia’s first venture into the Windows Phone market, and it comes packed with a variety of features that make it a compelling choice for smartphone users. The 3.7 inch AMOLED display ensures vibrant colors and deep blacks, making it ideal for media consumption and gaming. The resolution of 800 x 480 pixels provides a clear and sharp display, suitable for browsing the web, watching videos, and viewing photos.
Under the hood, the Lumia 800 is powered by a single core 1.4GHz processor, which, while not the most powerful by today’s standards, is more than capable of handling everyday tasks such as browsing, social media, and light gaming. The 8 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics and an LED flash ensures that you can capture high-quality photos even in low light conditions. The camera also supports 720p HD video recording, allowing you to capture your favorite moments in high definition.
Additional Features and Software
The Nokia Lumia 800 runs on Windows Phone 7.5 Mango, which offers a unique and user-friendly interface. The operating system is known for its smooth performance and integration with Microsoft services such as Office, OneDrive, and Xbox Live. This makes the Lumia 800 an excellent choice for users who are already invested in the Microsoft ecosystem.
One of the standout features of the Lumia 800 is its design. The device features a unibody polycarbonate shell that not only looks sleek but also feels premium in hand. The curved glass display seamlessly blends into the body, giving it a modern and elegant look. The device is also available in a variety of colors, although Vodafone appears to be offering the black version.
In terms of connectivity, the Lumia 800 supports 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS. It also comes with 16GB of internal storage, which should be sufficient for most users. However, it is worth noting that the device does not support expandable storage via microSD cards, so users will need to manage their storage accordingly.
Battery life is another important aspect of any smartphone, and the Lumia 800 does not disappoint. The device is equipped with a 1450mAh battery, which should provide enough power to get through a full day of moderate usage. This includes activities such as browsing the web, checking emails, and using social media apps.
For those interested in multimedia, the Lumia 800 comes with Nokia Music, which offers a wide range of music streaming options. The device also supports various audio and video formats, ensuring that you can enjoy your favorite media without any compatibility issues.
