Nokia Lumia 900

Thanks to Nokia and Microsoft's partnership, we seem to be getting lots of new Windows Phone devices.  The most recent release was the Nokia Lumia 900, which was just released a few days ago.  The Lumia 900 is the most high-end phone in the Lumia series.  The Lumia 900 runs the Windows Phone 7.5 Mango mobile operating system powered by a 1.4GHz Qualcomm processor.  The phone comes with a 4.3" ClearBlack AMOLED screen and an 8-megapixel camera with a 1-megapixel front-facing camera for video calling.  A feature that stands out from the rest of the smartphones is that the display is much more visible in direct sunlight than any other smartphone around.

Back when Apple released the iPhone 4 in 2010 with the stunning Retina Display, Apple boasted that because of the high pixel density, the screen would still be legible in direct sunlight; and it is.  However, the Nokia Lumia 900 has an even higher percentage of screen visibility even with low brightness (many users opt to keep the brightness low to conserve battery life).

As with all other Nokia Lumia devices, it will be available in several colours including cyan, black and white within a few weeks.
