subject: Upgrade Time? [print this page] If its time for you to upgrade your Smartphone, by all means run, dont walk, run to get a Lumia 900 phone from Nokia. Weve reviewed the phone here before, but with the new Windows interface, and now with Nokia offering a $100 bill credit for AT&T, its quite possibly the easiest decision youve ever made. Sure, AT&T sucks and is known for being slow to send out updates for devices, but Nokia was so forward thinking they sent out an update ahead of schedule. And of course, Nokia is known for kick-ass cell reception, something that AT&T (especially with the iPhone) isnt known for.
Jordan Crook on Tech Crunch writes two versions of a review, a short version and a long one. But he says its a no brainer. The short version he writes is as follows:
Guys, this ones such a no brainer that I shouldnt even have to lay it all out. But I will.
The Nokia Lumia 900 is an excellent handset, comes packed with a fresh new operating system in the form of Windows Phone 7.5 Mango, and thanks to a nifty AT&T bill credit from Nokia, you can essentially get this $100 LTE-equipped phone for free until the 21st. Repeat: for free.
Like I said, this ones a no brainer.
Features:
4.3-inch 480800 AMOLED display
AT&T 4G LTE
Windows Phone 7.5 Mango
1.4GHz single-core processor
8MP rear camera (720p video capture)
1MP front camera
MSRP: $100 on-contract (or free through April 21)
Pros:
Beautiful unibody polycarbonate casing (matte)
Well-built and premium feeling in the hand
Windows Phone is a refreshing joy to use
Cons:
Poor color reproduction on the camera
The display is a bit pixelated
If thin and light is your thing, this may feel clunky
His long version is very in depth and really digs in to what is done well and what doesnt quite work. With the camera being a little shoddy and the display not being uber crisp, it keeps the phone from being an iPhone killer. But rest assured when Nokia continues to make this phone even more bad-ass without sacrificing what makes it great, the phone will be at the top of a lot of peoples charts. So, to echo Jordan, it doesnt take a rocket scientist to figure this one out. Please go upgrade to this cool phone. Thank me later.
