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.

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.
