Nokia Lumia 900 Review

How I marveled at his elegant and stylish touch. How I'm glad you’re tile-based interface and how you brought me updates of my friends and family without having to leave the main screen.

But came less than three weeks after the first Nokia Lumia 900 reviews of, potential buyers need to address the difficult issues that the critics could not have seen it coming.

First came the news that a software error was to avoid phone's data connection to work properly, because any application that requires access to the Internet would not work.

To their credit, Nokia issued a quick fix - and a $ 100 credit to anyone who buys the phone before Sunday. But Nokia was not fast enough to stop an unfortunate marketing campaign proclaiming that "the smartphone beta testing is over." Not really.

Nokia Lumia 900 later learned that  probably will not be upgraded to the next version of Microsoft's mobile operating system, Windows Phone 8, when it becomes available this fall. There is much to like in the current version, Windows Phone 7, but by that time next year there will be a museum piece.

A data connection is clumsy and upgrade path, probably died within a few months. Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how about the new smartphone?

Too bad, because the highly anticipated Nokia re-entry into the U.S. smart phone market began with the promise.

First, the industrial design right. Smart phones from other companies like Apple tend to feel cheap and plastic, but 900 is fixed to the touch. The 4.3-inch high-resolution lacks the iPhone 4S, but I've been using Windows Phone beautiful.

Not as many apps

Then it's own Windows Phone, an operating system that strives to make the phone more effectively. Connect a Facebook account, for example, and you can "fix" profile someone in your home screen as a pawn - a great way to keep track of a close friend or loved one, updated the post.

Windows Phone application is not nearly as much as its competitors, but Microsoft puts them in a fast pace. Applications for Facebook, Twitter and Foursquare to all the great advantages of tile-based interface.

It also has a set of programs that you cannot find anywhere else: Microsoft Office Productivity Center, which pays the bills. Office for Windows Phone you can create and edit Office documents and save them in the cloud, a nice touch that will benefit all who rely on the program.

It is true that an advanced user would not be happy with the options of various applications. But for most casual users of social media and mobile games, Windows Phone an attractive system.

Despite its drawbacks, it seems Nokia Lumia 900 and sells well. The phone is sold in some places, including some AT & T stores and on Amazon.

Interestingly, the system it is an encouraging sign. Millions of Americans are taking a chance on a promising new operating system that could eventually challenge the primacy of IOS and Android. Along the way, Microsoft can have a real innovation in the market, and ensure that their competitors do not have peace.

In the meantime, however, is difficult to recommend a phone that was so hard out of the door. It's probably nothing in a Windows phone that will not get better in six months. And given the disappointing uptake of Lumia, smart buyers of new Windows Phone is better to wait.
