телефон для тех, кому нужен именно телефон, а не понты. Единственный минус - маленький заряд аккумулятора (3 дня)

Заказывали в подарок ребенку 13 лет,он доволен, телефон не тупит, много приложений, но без излишних заморочек, нам понравился.

нормальный

Здравствуйте.Решил приобрести мобильный телефон Nokia 206. В описании сказано, что поддерживает карту памяти до 32 Гб.На сайте MobiSet предоставлены результаты тестирования этого телефона (рассматривал также модель Nokia 203) - описано, что проверялась совместимость этих телефонов с картами памяти объёмом 16Гб и 32 Гб. В обоих случаях телефоны работали корректно, без нареканий.Стоит ли приобретать к телефону Nokia 206 карту памяти объёмом 32 Гб, или же он не сможет и 16 Гб потянуть?Заранее премного благодарен!

Отличная звонилка с дополнительными функциями вроде инструментов для работы в сети (браузер, почта, твиттер - но я этим не пользуюсь, конкретного ничего сказать не могу) и фотоаппаратом. Последний довольно слабый, но для снимков из серии "сфотографировать товар для продажи или афишу" сгодится вполне, а большего и не надо. Кнопки туговатые, крепкие. Из недостатков могу ответить очень тугую заднюю крышку, которую не с первого раза можно поддеть. Также держалка сим-карты довольно странная, зачем было делать защёлку, не очень ясно.За свои деньги и функционал просто прекрасная вещь.

Я не думаю, что этот телефон актуален в 2018 году, и тоже по такой высокой цене.<БР />
и даже запись бюджетные телефоны предлагают лучшие характеристики, чем этот телефон.

This is my second attempt to get to grips with a smartphone - the first a Sony Android device two years ago lasted less than a month before I went back to a proper phone.
I chose the 1320 specifically because of its larger screen area so that I could do some blogging and facebooking on a cycling trip as well as use it in place of having to carry my kindle as well. Fortunately I did decide to take my proper camera.
The worst thing is the battery life - if you leave it on it will need recharging after 2 days whereas my proper phone (a Nokia 2720, 6 years old) would last well over a week. However I gather this is normal (or even quite good) for smartphones.
Windows on a phone is certainly a lot more usable than Android (my proper computer is a Macbook not Windows) however there are many compromises. I can't get the calendar to sync 2 ways with either the Mac or a Google calendar. You don't seem to be able to set the default calendar to add events to - it is locked to the Outlook calendar. The camera is pretty rubbish - difficult to use and you can't upload hotos to Wordpress (there isn't an app for that apparently, there used to be but it not longer exists) which made it impossible to put pictures in the blog till I could get to a proper computer. The Facebook app works ok but is quirky so sometimes it is better to use the browser directly.
As a phone it works surprisingly well - voice quality is ok, speakerphone function is good, controls are well laid out. It is really difficult to look something up while you are on the phone though - for example to look up a phone number to tell to the person you are talking to, surely a very common function. To be fair this is not easy on ANY phone I have used and frequently results in having to hang up, look up the number, write it down on paper, and call the original person back - it should be a simple intuitive function.
The gps and map function works well, although the routing does not include a cycle option like google maps or velomaps and you can't edit the route once it has set it. You also cant set preferences (eg avoid main roads) for routing. I have a Garmin Edge on the handlebars for riding, although its small screen is not good for seeing an overview map but fine for routefinding within a city. The 1320 works ok as a replacement for carrying a paper map to use alongside the garmin - so long as it is not raining and you are not wearing gloves (the recent trip was both wet and cold)
There are three dedicated hard buttons along the bottom - back, home and search. Unfortunately the search button brings up something called Cortana which doesn't work. It would be more useful to make the third button configurable to give quick access to a specific app or function.
Email app is basic but works. You can easily set up multiple accounts or combine them. One black mark is that when replying to an email it always includes the original text and you cant edit it or get rid of it.
The Kindle app is rubbish, but works enough to be able to read a book. No search, dictionary, etc functions available.
Text messages are arranged in conversations per person which is good, but you can't delete individual messages in a conversation which is bad.
Despite its size it will fit in a trouser or coat pocket. You need to buy a flip case for it like this one Nokia Lumia 1320 Black Leather Wallet Flip Case Cover Pouch + Free Screen Protector & Touch Stylus Pen + Polishing Cloth
Overall I prefer the 2720 as a phone but will probably stick with this 1320 for occasions when I don't want to carry a laptop. I would still carry a proper camera and a proper kindle if I had space and weight wasn't a consideration though.
When fitting the sim make sure you hang on to the standard sized frame so that you can revert to a proper phone if you need to.

If you're looking at this phone then you must be looking for a) A Windows Phone handset and b) A large screen device. This is my third venture into Windows Phones, previous incranatione being the Lumia 820 which I owned for almost 2 years and a Lumia 625 which i owned for a year. The phone itself is typical Nokia/Microsoft build quality and that is to say its excellent and very well thought out. It looks just like a Lumia 625 but with a bigger screen and clear black display which is a treat. It also supports 'Glance' screen, which I find extremely helpful as it displays all your user selected important information feeds, the time and date without actually turning the display on thus saving battery. The phone is huge, and takes you a little by surprise when you first clap eyes on it. If you have the phone in a bright colour then it will look even worse. |It will only take a day or two to get used to the size and then you will wonder how you ever managed to survuive without a phone this size before! The battery is amazing, normally lasting an average of 1 2/3rd days. I can sometimes eek out 2 full days if im not heavily using it, but the phone is normally in constant use.
The big differences between this handset and the new 640XL which is supposed to replace it are minimal, but the 1320 has certain things going for it over the 640XL. They are: Office 2013 is preinstalled on this phone (no need for an Office 365 subscription), the dedicated camera button and the marginally bigger screen.Everything else is as said before trivial or minimal (1.2ghz quad-core vs 1.7ghz dual-core, thats pretty much it). I have successfully written documents, spreadsheets made notes using one note, constructed and sent e-mails from this device with ease due to the office apps, the big screen and the microsoft service integration. (I must point out that ALL Windows Phones have the office apps and service integration, its not just limited to this phone). The back snap on back covers are a delight, just like Nokia's of old. My phone was originally bought in white but my dad dropped it and damaged the case so I bought a black one from China for less than half the cost of an official one. Then I dropped it and chipped it so now im on my third 'Bright Red' case - Also from China. The phone has never suffered any damage, just the replaceable back covers so thats testament to the build quality.
The App gap for me is nothing of note. All the apps I use are there. But I should point out that if no official app exsists, there will be a third party app which fills the gap. So dont be put off by it! Sometimes the titles of these apps bear no reference to the official app they are trying to replace, so that can be a little akward trying to find one - but hit the search engine or forums to find them.
Cortana is a god send, 'She' learned where my home is, and where my work is. Then 'She' learned the times I leave work on different days and reminds me when its time to leave and adjusts the timings dependent on traffic and notify's me with the option to 'take me home' using the inbuilt HERE drive app (free, offline voice guided satellite navigation).
The OS, as you can probably guess, is one which I find very easy to use. Its intuitive. Android is not so, and neither is Apple products (based on personal opinion from extensive use). Windows Phone is fluid, and if you think a setting, toggle, check box should be somewhere then it generally is. But be warned - it is different to the other two OS's, so dont expect it to work the same as Android or iOS because it is neither of them. But this review isnt about the OS its about the phone, so thats enough about that.
Thats all I can think of right now, but if anyone has questions I will be happy to answer them. Just leave them in the comments section below!

Windows 8 apps are a welcome change from iOS. Among the three ecosystems, I prefer Android, Windows 8, and iOS in that order. Blackberry, what ?! For ease of use, Windows phone is really easy to use. Lumia 900 has been succeeded by Nokia Lumia 920. For someone interested in a first smartphone which doesn't break the purse, Lumia 900 is an excellent choice. User interface in Windows 8 is very pleasing and this is one of best phones with awesome user experience. If you prefer great user experience over infinite hackability, aka Android, then Windows 8 phones are great choice.Lumia 900 has 4.3" (109 mm) 800x480 resolution 217 ppi 16m compared to the Lumia 920 which has a 4.5" IPS LCD, 1280x768 resolution, 332 ppi display. This phone has up to 16 GB storage and 512 MB RAM compared to Lumia 920 which has 32 GB storage and 1 GB RAM. Lumia 900 has 8 MP camera and 720 p video compared to Lumia 920 which has a 8.7 MP camera and a 1080p HD Video. 1.4 GHz Qualcomm Scorpion processor compared to Lumia 920 which has a 1.5 GHz dual core processor. I have extensively used in the past HTC Titan I and II which is pre Windows 8 (7.5) and I was surprised it has become more buttery smooth now. This phone has Gorilla Glass compared to Lumia 920 which has Gorilla Glass 2. Glass 3 is in the making and supposed to be even better. Stating following because this is highly underrated in reviews. From Corning's Gorilla Glass specs; WHAT MAKES GORILLA GLASS SO DAMAGE RESISTANT? The unique composition of Gorilla Glass allows for a deep layer of high compressive stress (created through an ion-exchange process). This compression acts as a sort of "armor," making the glass exceptionally tough and damage resistant. Ion exchange is a chemical strengthening process where large ions are "stuffed" into the glass surface, creating a state of compression. Gorilla Glass is specially designed to maximize this behavior.As you can see Lumia 920 has, what I would say incremental upgrades over 900 but nothing earth shattering. Lumia 900 as well as 920 does not support microSD expansion. I always feel this is a bummer. But with 32GB it is plenty with current app ecosystem. These phones seem to be copying iPhone philosophy. Battery 1830 mAh Lithium polymer battery (Compared to a high end Android Galaxy Note II, which has a battery of 3100 mAh Battery.) Unlike the Nokia Lumia 820, the Lumia 900 as well as 920 doesn't have a removable battery cover, which means you can't access or replace your battery. __Not having a storage expansion slot is a bummer for lot of people! Not being able to remove battery is a double bummer.__ For me, storage expansion and removal of battery is very important, so I was disappointed. This is the downside the unibody design.Phone quality was excellent and speakerphone was awesome. Nice to see built in active noise cancellation with a dedicated mic. Lumia 900 has Bluetooth 2.1, whereas Lumia 920 has Bluetooth 4.0. I was able to get excellent reception with Bluetooth headset, Jaybird Sportsband Stereo Bluetooth Headphone - Bulk Packaging - Midnight Black and JayBird BlueBuds X Sport Bluetooth Headphones - Midnight Black All the usual smartphone stuff, facebook, twitter, music, emails etc are all excellent. It is only the third party apps that are lacking in some arenas. If you are Microsoft heavy like Office suites, Lumia phone are awesome!Lumia 900 has the diagnostic tool. It can be obtained by pressing ##634# on the dial keypad, which should initiate the download after the last # is pressed. The diagnostic tool should appear on the app list under Diagnostics.On this diagnostic tool one can run tests on the following: Accelerometer, ALS, audio loopback, camera, battery status, DTMF, gyroscope, hardware buttons, headset detection, LCD white, lights, life timer, magnetometer, power source, proximity, speaker, touch and vibration. It's also possible to perform all the tests in one run. This is really cool to have this power at the user's hand!Apps are limited in Windows 8 marketplace. Yes, we have heard this a gazillion times. Lumia has GPS receiver with A-GPS and GLONASS support. I tried with Garmin Navigon app which turned out to be great in giving voice directions. App ecosystem is a chicken and egg situation. Unless more phones are sold, developers don't have incentives to write apps. Apps are less now, because people are not buying in big droves. Windows Phone is now (early-mid 2013) the third-leading mobile phone platform, more than tripling its market share year-over-year. One recent report I read Android and iOS are ahead in games with 162.1 and 37.4 million shipments in 1Q13 and Windows phone came in 7 million. This is more than double from previous year. I really hope for Windows 8 platform to surge ahead because having a 3 way competition with iOS and Android is good for the ecosystem.ONE LINE SUMMARY: The Nokia Lumia 900 is certainly the best and cheapest Windows Phone 8 smartphone on the market, it was reall

Ever since Nokia announced the 808 PureView at MWC last year, I've been like a moth drawn to candlelight. Throughout most of 2012, while loving my MeeGo powered N9, I was been utterly intrigued by the 808, watching hours of YouTube videos, reading every brilliant word of Steve Litchfield's 808 PureView reviews and positively drooling over the incredible photos it has produced that are now peppered all over the internet.The 808?s huge camera sensor is obviously the main point of interest, but the list of specs also seems to be something that every Nokia fan dreamed of - in a Symbian phone that is. Because of course by the time the 808 was launched, Nokia was already shifting Windows Phones, namely the Lumias 800 and 710. But as someone who has enjoyed using Symbian phones for a long time, it was the fact Nokia had put every last goodie under the hood of the 808, and had crafted a solid device made from top-end materials, and I was drawn to it. I was very pleased to learn that it had a removable battery, a microSD slot, HDMI out port, Gorilla Glass screen (curving at the edges in a similar fashion to my much-loved N9), a radio transmitter, a Xenon flash and LED for a torch... the long list continues. There seemed to be no compromise this time, no skimping on the internals or externals. It was as if Nokia development and management had sat around a table together and decided that, seeing as this was going to be Symbian's swan-song, it was going to be the best they could produce.And it is.I've had my Nokia 808 PureView for a few days now, so here is a quick summary of how I have found it as my daily device.Nokia Belle Feature Pack 2 is without a doubt the very best Symbian has had to offer, and I have had no problem navigating around the menus and homescreens within this last iteration of the much-loved OS. The software has given me a few tiny headaches though, which I'll go into later. But on-the-whole it has been just great, and of course, the OS has benefited immensely from the extra horse-power; the 1.3GHz processor moves things along with zero lag, and it makes you wish that Nokia had been this generous in the previous run of S^3 phones. Going back to the N8 with its 680MHz chip just simply doesn't do things the way it should. So yes, I think it's almost easy to forget you're using a Symbian phone because the lag and stuttering you're expecting doesn't happen. It's smooth and whizzy, and I like that a lot.But the software is only half the attraction. For me, the actual physical build, design and feel of the 808 draws my hand toward it when I haven't used it for a while. I bought the red version, (from an online retailer called R&D Marketing,a lot cheaper than Amazon)and I'm so glad I did, because it just oozes fun and is certainly unique in the ocean of black slabs. Was I a little worried about weight and thickness? Sure. But when I first held it in my hand I was shocked at how light it actually is, and the camera bulge actually makes the phone really easy to hold in the hand; it's perfectly balanced for one-handed use and feels 100% natural in landscape orientation. Actually in landscape, you can't think of holding anything but a camera, it's really well designed and made.So overall, I am extremely pleased with the 808 in terms of general experience with Belle FP2 and also the wonderful physical design and feel of it.The camera is, of course, a monster of a camera. I haven't taken a million photos with it yet, but I have taken a few, played with some of the settings, and every time I've been immensely impressed with the results. Over time, I will learn a bit more about the many options and settings the 808 gives you, and I'm sure my Flickr account will soon fill up with great shots.Here is a list of likes and dislikes that I've experienced/found in these first few days:LIKES:* The FP2 keyboard is amazing, even better in many ways than the great keyboard of my N9. It has already learned some of my most commonly-used words, including my email address name, and tapping on the suggestions has really sped up my messaging. The new staggered layout is a breath of fresh air on a Symbian phone too; why has this taken so long?* I love activating the camera straight from locked. Simply pressing the shutter button instantly brings up the viewfinder, and if you keep the finger depressed (cheer up!) on the button it will actually take a photo. So from locked to photo in about 2-3 seconds. Very cool.* Swiping to unlock the phone is wonderful, especially for someone like me who has been swiping the lockscreen of an N9 for over a year. There's no double-tap here, but pressing the home button is fine as even that has been really well made. It's reminiscent of the button-strip on the Nokia 603 and Lumia 710, but it's much less stiff and really seems to glide almost seamlessly into the screen.* The battery has been great so far, but it's early days.* The speaker is excellent; listening to some podcasts while doing the housew

** Dear Amazon/TABLET DISTRIBUTORS, you sent me the wrong phone. This one does not have a US Warranty.**It cannot be overstated how good the camera is on this phone. I have had great fun playing with it and it worked so well that I was leaving my SLR at home more and more. But I have no choice but to return it.For the record, I am among the last die-hard Nokia/Symbian fans having used Nokias almost exclusively since the days of pre-Cingular AT&T wireless and the Nokia 2160. I have so many retired Nokias (and chargers) it's pathetic. I (predictably) moved to the 808 from the brilliant Nokia N8 which I absolutely loved.So it is with a heavy heart that I send my 808 Pureview back to Amazon. Here is a short list of what has gone wrong:- Utterly unstable. Unlike with my N8, Spotify and SportsTracker cause the phone to restart constantly. I have not been able to record a single workout and I celebrate when I can listen to more than 20 minutes of music without a reboot. Google Maps for Symbian, though unsupported for years by Google, worked well on my N8 but crashes unpredictably on the 808. Nokia Maps, for me, is not a reliable substitute for Google Maps.- Loss of tethering: apparently, due to FCC rule changes, using JoikuSpot Premium (which cost me $10) to tether via adhoc WiFi is no longer possible on the 808. Infrastructure mode has never been supported by Symbian. So Bluetooth/USB tethering is the only option which is highly inconvenient and not an option on my tablet.- I have been suffering from the 3G drop-out issue, where, for no reason, the phone drops off AT&T's 3G network and I am unable to receive calls or texts. I thought Amazon temporarily pulled the phone until this was corrected so this is a big disappointment. This means I also have to find an adapter or get a new SIM to use a backup phone while waiting for a replacement which leads me to my biggest problem.- Despite "U.S. Warranty" in the description, what I received from Tablet Distributors is not a US phone. I entered the IMEI into Nokia's support page hoping for warranty replacement only to receive the error, "Out of Warranty in the U.S.A."So the phone is going back and I am writing this review, not sure what to do next. I still need a new phone. Do I risk getting another 808 (I love the camera that much) or finally abandon the Nokia ship and get a Nexus 4 and separate camera (Canon's S110 comes to mind)? I may update this when I make a decision.Hopefully this helps someone.Update - 3/10/2013I ordered another 808, this time directly from Amazon and for more money. The first thing I did on receiving it was to verify the warranty. I was relived to see that it had one, so I proceeded to re-install all my apps, setup my email, re-install Spotify and Maps, etc.. The same problems resurfaced almost immediately. Falling off the network, rebooting at random whether I was using it or not. I wear a Bluetooth headset throughout the day and I could hear the headset disconnect and reconnect while it was rebooting in my pocket. So I called Nokia and spoke to a service representative hoping for a little empathy and a quick replacement. At first I was told to RMA with the vendor. When I mentioned that I had already done that, I got barely restrained contempt as I was instructed to type in the address for Nokia support and fill in their form for a service request.Turnaround on the service request was quick though, 5 days instead or the 7-10 days I was promised. I got a different (rebuilt) replacement. It had a different IMEI number, MAC address, etc.. and, curiously, the MAC address seemed to be older (at least numerically earlier) than the one I sent.After leaving AT&T with my fifth new SIM card in two months, the phone rebooted, without prompting, three times before I could leave the parking lot. I quietly hoped that it was just the new phone installing updates (though no firmware updates were needed, just bundled software). I set about installing updates, re-installing my apps, setting up my GMail account (which I now have to use via IMAP as Google has disabled Mail for Exchange support), re-syncing Spotify, setting up Maps. The phone is STILL as unreliable and unpredictable as ever. I spent nearly 12 hours before realizing I had no phone service and no data the following day, because this phone, my third 808, had dropped off the network. Then it frustrated me ever more later that same day, while driving, for 10 minutes straight while I had to pull over to wait for multiple reboots to get it to work long enough to use the map for directions. I have only had phone number three for two days as I write this.I am officially over it. I cannot in good conscience recommend this to anyone. I am about to send it back to Amazon for a second refund, which may be tricky because it is not the one I purchased.In conclusion, do not buy a Nokia 808. If the camera is what you're after, and it remains excellent, get a small point-and-shoot and a real phone from anyone else.

Nokia Lumia 900 wp7, a set back in evolutionBase on price and moment in cellular evolution I would expect this expensive beautiful designed smart phone to work at least as easy and practical as any basic cell... Well this is not the case with this toy..THIS IS A VERY COMPLICATED PHONE!! - FORGET PRACTICAL USE WITH THIS GADGETSimple, practical and easy is not part of the philosophy in this phone..Things you might be used to do on a couple of clicks, here they take 5 to 6 actions away (or more) and time consuming and frustrating results in many cases.. Understanding and finding your way around with Nokia Lumia 900 wp7 is a very high time consuming effort .. So if you are a busy person and like technology to improve your timing working routing, this is not a phone I would recommend.. Because many "Basic" cell functions are missing in the software wp7, and the only option you'll find is to search endlessly the "market place" to find app that may or may not suit your needs, download them, install them and use them for a while to see if they really work for you..

Well there is no way to copy the whole thing and paste it, you got to re-write it all on each day independently on the calendar.-No tile color and/or size customize by user (a Tile is like a icon for shortcuts to a desired function or application)-What happened to saving contacts on the phone??

So you'll end up searching the "free" category (which have advertising on them)-No smart dialing (while you type a number does not display contacts that match the number)-No possibility to customize font size-No "select or select all" option when typing-No "one space back/forward" buttons option when typing and/or correcting, editing-No undo-No cut-No possibility to see or view the date when typing a note or mgs doc-No return or back to previous task-No easy friendly connection, transfer of data through USB and PC-No contacts transfer, share, backup, update, save, import, export through USB or Bluetooth to your PC or other services-No Bluetooth connection to other phones or PC for picture, music or file transfer-Forget about Bluetooth services with this device (only a handful services incorporated) e.i. hands free and speakers it's about it..-No message (SMS) save or export to PC..-SMS threads font very small size-For a pretty big screen, contact's info (phone numbers, address, e-mail, notes, etc) are ridiculously small font size!!!-What happened to font selection "Small, Medium, Large"?-No compatibility to PC Suite-No ringtone selection as desire by user from own music files-No volume set up by user for default ringtones-Volume adjust same for every sound (lets say I just want to set up SMS sound louder but only that, it can't it wont let you)-No sound selection as desire for "new sms" or "new email" or "reminder" you are obliged to use its small library of boring sounds-the sounds options for "new sms", "new email" or "reminder" doesn't let you customize its loudness or volume independently.-No option in selecting any song from your library as ringtone, message, sms, alarms sounds-When playing a song from my Lumia's phone library it doesn't have a possible way for moving ahead or scroll through the song (forward or rewind)-No phone book option on "people" (only internet accounts or all mixed)-Contacts have a Fixed platform that does not let you customize the Titles for Phone numbers-On Contacts the list of options for labeling Phone Numbers is short!!-If a Contact's name is longer than the space on screen, it wont let you see the complete name, it wont show it even if you place it horizontal view..-The Export/Import option (that you have to download)for getting my Phone contacts from my older Nokia or iPhone to my Lumia, works mediocrely and poor, many details were left out...-No "draft" folder for SMS-No "recent" option for choosing contacts on sending SMS-No multiple selection of contacts on one step procedure for sending sms (as on "Android")-No possibility to create custom SMS folders, i.e. saving moms sms-Calendar "Month" view too small, unreasonable unreadable, no visible marks, tags, color or water marker for events-No scrolling day by day on calendar "month view", neither on "calendar day view".-Confusing calendar day view (looks like an endless list)-Only hourly settings on calendar day view (No minutes settings i.e. 2:30, 4:45, 10:15 or whatever) it is set up by default as a unnecessary long list even if empty..-No summary view of daily set events when day selected on "calendar month view" (without having to go or redirected to day view)-No tile color and/or size customize by user-What happened to saving contacts on the phone?? Only on a E-mail account??-No adding feature of related apps to a single "tile" to group them (as on iPhone)-Sometimes people can get dizzy scrolling all the way down (or through) the endless "tile" collection set up you might end up having, trying to make short cuts to phone functions.-They claim Zune (the connection app for PC and Lumia phones) is the ultimate software, but then again a set back in evolution.. Is quite a drag having to connect and disconnec

I don't know where to start in singing the praises of this phone. I am NOT a TECHI so wasnt looking forward to trying to get used to a new phone. I have been searching for something that I can use to replace the need for carrying around my small laptop/notebook. I tried a couple of other 'smart phones' but found the screens too small and just found them difficult to use in general. I also didn't want to spend over £200 on a phone. I thought I as being too picky and unrealistic. Then I saw this phone and it seemed to tick all the boxes!

It took me very little time to set it up and start using it. I love the Windows system. It is much better than the Android system on my other phone. The battery lasts much longer too. The screen size is just right for me as I can see things clearly and the touch screen control makes it really easy to use.

I would really recommend this for anyone who is looking for a high quality smart-phone at a reasonable price.

Synopsis:I received the Nokia 808 one week ago (from "Tablet Distributors" an Amazon partner VERY quickly), the week before Thanksgiving. My previous phone was the Nokia N8 which I love. But I'm a sucker for an amazing camera in a phone, thus the new phone.The 808 gives an amazing leap forward with its camera experience, offers some well deserved and performance improvements across the whole phone's operation, and a number of design improvements. Some of the standard and well loved performance features of Symbian are here too, features other phone os users have to pay for. The keyboard, a function which Belle (the Nokia OS at the time) surpasses all other smart device OS keyboards, has had a massive redesign, a move which will irritate and alienate many Symbian defenders, but with a week's use (or maybe two), they will be comfortable with.General speed improvements can be felt throughout all activities with this phone compared with the N8 or E7. No lagging, email hangups, or apps which are not sure if they want to open. Everything is waaay snappier than other smart devices I've had, including the tragic mistake of the Transformer Infinity which I returned.Just so you know, my base of comparisons for smartphones & devices: I have owned several Nokia smartphones (n95 (amazing camera & my first smartphone), E7, N8) and owned Android and iOS devices. I am familiar with all of these. And utterly love my N8. So nice.Camera:Skipping the obvious and amazing 41 mp camera and Pureview tech, the camera offers improvements and corrects annoyances from Nokia's other premium camera phones. It's way faster than other Nokia camera apps, opens faster than my other Nokia phone apps, takes pics faster once started, faster on the next pic. Camera app opens instantly. I mean it. There is ZERO lag. When you want to snap that perfect sneaky picture, the camera is ON and the pic is TAKEN end of story. No waiting. This is a big improvement over the N8, which, though its camera is probably STILL the 2nd best camera in a phone on the market, took awhile both to open the camera app and then had to cogitate over taking the picture. There are more camera options, all of which are more streamlined imho. Changing the options is super fast too. And the pic minimization routine at the end of the pic is quick too. Overall it's super fast and super good.There really is little need to expound on the camera. It is as good as, or likely far better than, most point and shoots and even hangs with DLSR's. Though it is slightly bigger than the N8, it is still not big enough for all the unicorns which obviously power the camera, so, they must be at the end of Bifrost in the galactic black hole. Or something. It's a pretty amazing camera.Key features:Like I said, I tend to go with a great camera phone, regardless the manufacturer. It just so happens the manufacturer is often Nokia. That's nice because I think Nokia phones are in general very well put together, feel solid in the way that closing the door of a high end car sounds solid compared to a very cheap one. Nokia phones feel like quality and the 808 is no exception here.The Map apps included in the phone or downloaded for free from the Store make the 808 equivalent or better than any separately purchased GPS device. Nokia Map related apps are amazing, free for life, and work offline, or via a range of GPS updating methods (3-3.5g, SMS, unassisted). Voice guided directions (walking or driving) everywhere on Earth? Got it. Public transit? Got that too. The GPS can work standalone with zero cell signal just like a separately purchased GPS device, or can work across the network signal (a-GPS), bluetooth, or even via SMS (text message). I like this because it lets me control data usage. A couple of Map apps you might want to try: World Gaze (interesting) and City Lens (love it, somewhat of an unsung hero imho).The 808 also conforms to the typical Nokia design philosophy which gives me control of my device and what is on it, and loads it with tons of codecs. A decent file browser is there. I can see where apps are installed, change the location to a memory card if I like, and the apps go with me to a new Nokia device. I've done it a million times. I love it. Nokia makes transferring everything from an old phone to a new one easy, and gives you several options on how to do it: backup/restore feature, transfer to removable memory, across Nokia servers, or turn on bluetooth and everything transfers locally. Nokia phones also let you toggle all the antennas, and with apps like Situations, you can automate and fine tune it. Also, more functions are supported in bluetooth in Nokia Symbian devices than other smartphones (even compared with Nokia Windows devices). Android devices almost come close to this level of device control, but, just, not quite. I like to control my own device.Other good stuff:The screen is super vivid. It does not have the pixel density of the iPhone or many Android phones out there, b

I have now had 4 Windows/Nokia Lumia phones and I love them all because they are so easy to use. I ended up getting the phone (Lumia 1320)
because my previous phone (Lumia 1520) screen broke.
But onto the review of this phone.
It is nice and big so brilliant for videos, surfing the web, texting and games.
it's great that you can add extra storage space to the phone and most apps can be downloaded to the micro SD card.
the speaker from the phone is good and not flat, so if you are watching a film or listening to radio it can give a good amount of sound off.
The battery life is brilliant, it will last around 2 days with good usage. can not fault it there.
One of two things that lets the phone down are
its very slow to load some apps and I have tried running the app through the SD card and straight from the phone and some games even lag at the start. (comparing to the Lumia 1520 for example)
you can easily accidently press the camera button by accident, Microsoft have now got rid of that button on the New Microsoft phones.
overall I really like this phone but it does not compare to the Lumia 1520 which had a superior camera, it ran much faster and was just better in general. I got it because I could no longer get the 1520

Let me start by saying, I have been using Nokia Symbian-based phones since they first came on the market, and I was very upset when Nokia dropped Symbian OS for Windows when it offered the Lumia line - WHY, Nokia, WHY????Melodrama aside, even though I was unhappy, I wasn't ready to move to another brand, so grumbling and snarling, I decided to take the plunge and buy a Nokia Lumia 900 when my old E71x started gasping. I'm reviewing the Lumia after having had it for only 48 hours: I got it one evening and almost sent it back the next morning - I was that frustrated - but it has so much potential that I couldn't do it. To some degree I have mixed feelings: it has some cons that try their best to offset its many, many pros, so I've given it a rating of 4 stars.--Pros:I've found that, overall this is a really sweet phone, in spite of its operating system. I say that last, because I have had serious issues migrating from the old Nokia (like, you CAN'T. NOT.AT.ALL.NEVER.). Ah, for the days when one could back up the old Nokia phone and restore to the new one ...If you're used to Windows Mobile or Blackberry OS you'll love this phone out of the box, although it involves a learning curve no matter what. It beats out the iPhone with no problem, in my opinion: it offers a lot more for a lot less money. I had an iPhone for a while, and was, shall we say, 'underwhelmed'.That's not the case for this phone, it can do anything an iPhone can do, and more; and I think it does it much, much better, more reliably. It has some heft - its neither light nor tiny - but it has a metal chassis. Otherwise, it's smooth, sleek, feels good in you hands, and the touch functions have to be experienced to be believed. It is really simple to operate, too.The Lumia 900 has three buttons on the right - okay, four: the volume keys, the on/off button in the middle, and the camera key near the bottom. The home icon also acts as 'back' and 'close'. Get into something you don't like? Hit the Windows 'home' icon. Locking and unlocking the phone originates with the on/off button, and a sliding screen.The high resolution screen produces colors and objects that pop - they are just that crisp and bright. 'Zoom up/Zoom down' are performed using two fingers on the touch screen, and you can view your screen in landscape or portrait orientation. To silence a call, just flip the screen over - flip silence, I think it's called.It has high-end camera optics, and Nokia provides a free app that gives you the ability to take panorama and NICE zoom shots - the camera is almost SLR quality.Nokia provides a free navigational app that's been available on all of its phones the last few years: anywhere you want to go, they can get you there. Mapquest is available as a paid app, and google maps is accessible from the web. My phone can talk to my car (go figure?), so I'm loving Nokia Maps. I need it, because I get lost, a lot.Call quality is consistently clear, sound is free of noise. I don't drop calls, and I live on the Texas coast where cell signal is sometimes non-existent. I wish the volume of the music player was a bit better for use without headphones or speakers, that's the only complaint I have about that.That all said, here are some of the cons:I am not one of those folks puts contacts, etc. online, syncs everything with Outlook, Google, Facebook, and the like, so it was very difficult to even move my contacts. I was able to move them using bluetooth, finally, but even that was a pain. You must download an app to do it, because the lumia won't talk to its Symbian relatives through bluetooth (or anything else) at all without the app. Unfortunately, the app is designed to only move contacts and there are no others.In my experience, this is the first time I've run into a phone that a Symbian OS phone can't communicate with, and that it's from the same manufacturer, is a real shame. I did try to pair them; the Symbian phone thought it was paired, but the Lumia paired, then responded, 'not supported', and closed the connection. A family member has a newer Symbian OS phone than mine, and the Lumia won't talk to that one by bluetooth either.As if this wasn't enough, I found moving my library of .mobi, Kindle, Audible, PDF, Office, and other documents was not fun - I'm still doing it, in fact. That exercise has involved 2- and 3-stage transfers. I've been bluetoothing from the old phone to my PC, then from my PC to my Lumia, then moving them around to where I'd like to have them rather than where Windows wants them. And forget about migrating EMAILS, text and mms - the support pages tell you to back it all up on your PC and use the 'appropriate software' to work with them on it. They will never exist on your phone again, gentle Symbian user.I couldn't send texts or messages either for a couple of days: this phone does not have the AT&T internet settings in it. Normally that isn't a problem: lots of phones ship without the AT&T access point name (APN) settings, but
