Lumia 800 Benchmarked

Oh dear what's going on here ?

Nokia Lumia 800 gets benchmarked, rasies many questions - Neowin.net

Thoughts ?

I dont see a problem. These tests are designed to benchmark raw power, and in that areas WP7 devices will be slower than others. But as we all know real life use is another matter entirely, and crucially in comparison to the Titan its pretty much even and if this comparison is accurate HTC Titan Software Review - YouTube! it will hold up well in real life tests to the best of the rest.

However this is to be expected, seems there are people out there just looking to find fault with Nokia's first WP7 handset and are going to try and spread as much FUD as they can.

 

[TheWeeBear]

Well on that benchmarking note i'm off to bed as i have to be refreshed for my 9.00 AM Nokia World live stream event in the morning. It's 10.10 PM here you know! LOL

Yawn!

Hope to see you there for all the goodies that we already know about and hopefully some
surprises.

See You There !

Also the browser benchmark is just that, a browser benchmark. It speaks to how poorly IE is done more so than any hardware shortcomings of phone.

 

[cj-m]

Well, so far it is the 710, the 800 and the 900? I am interested in seeing the one with a hardware keyboard. that should be pretty interesting.

 

[justop26]

It's getting closer!

 

[HeyCori]

Yeah, closer to getting my heart broken when they don't announce any US phones for 2011.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nokia 900 Specs Sheet Leaked

A spec sheet summary for the Nokia 900 just landed in our inbox. I?m not sure if it?s real, but we?ll find out soon enough. According to this leak, the Nokia 900 has Windows Phone 7.5, 1.4GHz processor, 1GB RAM, 32 GB inbuilt memory, Bluetooth 4.0, and 1800 mAh battery. Take a look at the photo the tipster sent us.

I pray to God the Nokia 900 is not fake!!! or at the very least, that Nokia may have something WAY BETTER than it.

Lumias are now on the WP website.

Compare and buy | Windows Phone 7

Oh dear i feel so empty. Looks like the Titan or Focus S is still top of my want list.

 

[jdevenberg]

So underwhelmed. I was hoping for more. Apparently there will be a whole "portfolio" of products in the US, but not till 2012... I don't know if I should wait or just get the Focus S...

No, I still love the Lumia 800.

They didn't actually say how you buy it in the UK; there is no Nokia online store.

 

[Judge_Daniel]

Looks like I'm getting a month-to-month contract for my Focus next month until Nokia hits the US. I feel like I would kick myself if I go with a non-Nokia phone now. The apps it comes with just seem amazing compared to the Samsung or HTC apps.

 

[starblade876]

Yeah, I hope "portfolio" for the US in early 2012 isn't an exaggeration of the 2 colors of the 710 and the 3 colors of the 800 and/or different storage capacities for them. Of course, I'm very curious about this "future tech" area the moderator mentioned that people there get to see...

Here you go Stig, I like the phone too but i don't want a smaller screen than I have now.

What I mean is you can't buy from Nokia UK direct.

There are a few enterprising sites who already show the phone as a pre-order, but that's on contract with Vodafone or Orange.

I'm sure the unlocked phones will be listed soon.

 

[TheWeeBear]

Yes probably Stig.

 

[BlazeGaj]

Love the phone going to to buy it this week.

Thanks for the welcome.

I just need to decide on what colour to get. I want to see them in my hands before deciding that.

 

[TheWeeBear]

You're welcome, yes well i always like black, i always think coloured phones look tacky, but that's just a me thing LOL.
