subject: How To Unlock Any Nokia Lumia 900 [print this page] The Nokia Lumia 900 was launched in April 2012. It's one of the nicest looking cellular phones on the market and provides some awesome features. For starters, it is one of the first 4G LTE Windows Mobile handsets available and the very first Nokia Windows phone offered in the US. It has a strong, attractive design constructed using a unibody polycarbonate frame and is available in black, white and blue. Its measurements are 127.8mm x 68.5mm wide x 11.5mm and has a weight of 160g, making it slightly heavier then the iPhone 4S along with some of its other rivals. The cellphone comes bundled with some excellent applications such as Youtube, Radio Controlled Pandora app, Hey DJ, voice search and voice to launch, in addition to over 100,000 apps offered from the Windows Phone app Marketplace. You will also get not one but two sets of maps, the Microsoft Maps powered by the Bing Maps service, along with Google maps. Another excellent thing about this phone is that the applications that come preinstalled can in fact be erased, allowing you to clear out some of that unwated bloatware.
A few of the other notable features of this mobile phone include a 1.4 GHz Scorpion cpu, Qualcomm APQ8055 Snapdragon chipset, Adreno 205 GPU, 16GB of integrated storage space, 512 RAM, 4.3 inch Corning Gorilla Glass AMOLED capacitive touchscreen display with 16 million colors, 8 Mega pixel autofocus dual-LED flash camera, secondary 1.3 MP camera, 720p@30fps video, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, HSDPA 21 Mbps/HSUPA 5.76 Mbps/LTE/Cat3 50 Mbps DL/25 Mbps UL, Bluetooth v2.1, Gps navigation, and works on the Microsoft Windows Phone 7.5 Mango Os. The Nokia Lumia 900 can function on 2G networks (GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900), 3G networks (HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100), and 4G networks (LTE 700 MHz Class 17 / 1700 / 2100).
