Nokia Lumia 800 – coming soon to Three.
The eagerly awaited Nokia Lumia 800, with Windows Phone 7.5 (Mango) is coming soon to Three.
The first device to result from the Nokia Microsoft partnership, this phone features an 8MP camera with Carl Zeiss optics for crisp high quality photos and HD video, a 3.7’’ curved OLED display and 16GB of onboard memory, all brought to life by the intuitive Windows Phone 7.5 (Mango) operating system.
With the recently released Mango software, the Nokia Lumia 800 fully integrates social features so friends, family and groups are easily accessible through the trademark, and pinnable, live tiles.
