Nokia Lumia 800 is the most prominent smartphone that was revealed at Nokia World 2011. At first sight, most of us couldn’t distinguish the Lumia 800 from its predecessor, the Nokia N9. However, the Lumia 800 brings some important improvements in tech specs over N9, including a faster processor and this is also the first Windows Phone from Nokia. Nokia continuously announces a lot of new phones recently, if you have already owned a Nokia N9, is the Lumia 800 worth upgrading?

    Wow! I have always loved the Nokia brand. I didn’t even know they had a smartphone. That’s because I haven’t been in the market for a smartphone. Next July, I think I see a new Nokia in my hands. Thanks for the info. Sally

      Actually Nokia has produced smartphones for a few years. This is really a good brand especially if you are finding a durable smartphone with long battery life. :)

      Thanks a lot for your nice words, Tram. You are always welcome to TechWalls. :)
      You will become a tech expert soon if it is really your passion. Actually I love your writing style at the moment as it is very natural and doesn’t target search engines like most of us are doing.
      Btw, I even didn’t know how to create a self-hosted WordPress blog at your age, so you don’t have to worry much.

      Yeah sure I want to write a post about keyword research but there are a lot of them out there and I haven’t got a good idea yet. Maybe I’ll just sum up some important points to help you.
      I am a fan of your FB page as well, I hope you won’t give up blogging like many other Viet bloggers did.
      Btw, have a great weekend, Tram. :)

    Nokia 800 does look nice but wouldn’t 512mb ram be a bit less, I like the N9 but with little manufacturer support for Meego its not gonna develop as big as Android, sadly although it has potential to be much more.

      Hi Selurus. How are you?
      Meego had a lot of potential when it was first announced last year, however, I see people start forgetting about the Linux based OS. That’s why I prefer the Lumia 800 over N9.

    I have used both the phones and both are good and provide the best user experience. Now Android has dominated the ecosystem but I still respect these handsets as it were the best in their segment when we didn’t have much developed OS.
