But will it blend?

Pretty sure it will.

Nice looking phones... Not so much on the Lumina 700 series as they look rather budget like.

These videos are made two months ago. Better late than never Tom's.

Such a beautiful phone. And I have fallen in love with Nokia all over again after those two videos.

I am still on the "dumb-phone" bandwagon, and I should be able to jump on a smartphone soon, and this phone will be it. I have been keeping an eye on the N9 and 800 for a while now, and after watching the manufacturing process, it makes me want it even more.

I want one in my hands NOW!!!

And as for the Lumina 700, they are specifically marketing it as a "budget smartphone".

i just want to see the intergreation between win8 and the windows mobile. simple integration can be a huge advantage.

and they still manage to turn out to be piles of crap

SMEH

After having used this phone, I can certainly say it is worth the effort. The look, the feel and everything else is just pure perfection. Now what it needs is a less internet dependent OS.

My HTC Desire HD still better, Nokia N9 still lagging here and there
I Had used nokia for 5 years, know I will not use it again, why? I just feel disappointed, N95, 5800, X7, enough of them! They're all ALWAYS crash, restart, have touch screen defect, battery defect, bla bla bla...
They didn't last more than 4 months T.T
Now my HTC far more better, almost no problem in software (yeah, sometimes laggy), but sure it doesn't have any hardware defect, and until more than 1 year it still gets latest update, the HTC sense 3.0

But will it blend?

it sure will! the better question will it work? Nokia if they reverted to there old style would survive nuclear war then some... but most likely they will find a base in wp 7.. i would puffer Android ill be ok tho don't worry

 

[quanta08]

Can i run Android on it? It will much better with it.

 

[kikireeki]

We worked passionately on Lumia 800 design and decided to recycle N9's.

 

[feeddagoat]

Why did the lumia remove the front facing cam from the N9? The last thing it needs is HDMI out and I would of been sold but alas I was forced to go to android.

 

[nebun]

i wished the top and bottom had a smooth edge like the sides...nice phones though...nokia needs to make more CDMA units for Verizon

We are all quick to criticize our high tech gadgets for missing features, high prices or what have you. But seeing what is involved in actually making them is putting things in perspective.
The investment in machinery and people; and the detail that goes into every part of each device.

Nobody goes thru all this to purposely build 'bad' products; but this being a rather complex process gremlins will find their way in and it can take a while -even after a lot of testing- to discover some of them.

 

[NightLight]

you know what would be cool? constructing a phone that breaks the blender

 

[captaincharisma]

the nexus S still looks way better than these phones. and a better OS to boot

 

[cookoy]

i'm very impressed how nokia worked really hard in collaboration with MS to get things right from the start. A lot of great products from different companies will only benefit us consumers.

[belardo]

Er... Why do you think Nokia dropped Symbian ? Problems... Hence they went with ms.
