During they kenyote address at Nokia World 2011 on Wednesday, Nokia finally took the covers off of one of its first Windows Phone 7.5 Mango handsets-the Nokia Lumia 800.
Available in several different colors, the Luma 800 is packs an 8-megapixel camera based on superb Carl Zeiss camera optics. As expected, the Lumia 800 also has 16GB of storage, a 3.7-inch AMOLED curved display, a 1.4GHz Qualcomm processor, and 25GB of SkyDrive cloud storage for photos and tunes.
From the looks of it, the Lumia 800 is quite similar to the Nokia N9. Dubbed the "first real Windows Phone," this Lumia 800 or is built from the same 12.1mm thick of piece of polycarbonate plastic too.
If that wasn't enough, the Lumia 800 also supports Nokia Drive, the company’s free turn-by-turn navigation software, as well as Nokia Music. Should compete quite nicely with Google Maps navigation when and where it lands.
Nokia said the Lumia 800 is available for pre-order in select countries and will land in Europe in November. It will then arrive in Asia in early 2012.
Unfortunately, Nokia has confirmed the Lumia 800 will not launch in the U.S. this year, but might come next year. Check out the neat promo below to get a better idea of what the Lumia 800 has to offer.
