[Request] Nokia Lumia 800 fora - Nokia Lumia 800

The Nokia Lumia 800 is more or less the flagship windows phone device and 25,000 of them will be given to developers to spark some real developer interest. Some of these very developers are likely XDA members and with some devices shipping soon there's no time like the present to add a forum. I'll be getting mine in a week or so and would love to have a place to post a video of the phone, unboxing, comparison, breakdown, whatever.

I know my limits
I like WP7 and Android , it's just that my heartless phone shop sold out all its WP7 phones so I went with the Galaxy Ace (instead of the Desire HD for an unknown and stupid reason , what was I thinking ?)

What are the specs ?
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA App

Wp7 isn't all about specs like android. That's something using an android trains you to ask. That said, 1.4 GHz snapdragon, 3.7 inch screen, Carl Zeiss lens on an 8 megapixel camera. Amoled clear black display, polycarbonate unibody, pure sexiness.

Btw, 1.4GHz is unusual for WP7 devices, they usually run on 1GHz processors so this is welcome. For more details check out http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_lumia_800-4240.php for a full specs sheet, although keep in mind numbers don't tell the whole story.
Also 512MB of RAM, seems low compared to Tegra 2 devices and such but it is more than enough for a WP7 device.
If I had the money, I'd either go for an N9 or this for a phone and get a 7" Android tablet. Anyway, looking forward to watching the Lumia, it's time Nokia gets some love after all these years rofl.

Sorry bro, but I find it hard to believe that there is a "super phone" coming this fall that this one guy at the store knows about but the rumors aren't all over the internet...
I realize you are just saying what you heard, but I wouldn't trust too much to one person's opinion.
p.s. even if such super phone comes, featuring let's say "a quad core processor" i would still stick with the Atrix for a year or two, because:
1. there's no Android OS or software that requires that much resources right now, Tegra 2 maxes out everything currently available in terms of software
2. after the phone comes out, it will be at least a couple of months before it has CM7, custom roms and all the goodies. the Atrix has that right now.
Cheerz.

I would agree with your statement, i love my atrix! i can't wait for ICS to come out for us, also for CM7 to get out of beta. its jus this isn't some guy who works with me, this is my DOS, who talks to my Vice Pres who gets all the info about phone, he told me about the atrix when it was Prototype, after he made that statement few months later, boom all over engadget/ gizmodo. so i'm not saying he is right, just wondering if anyone know about this. I know how this hole info over pulse/ engadget rumors, i'm the goto guy for android for my market, but they wont share info with me, which is lame!!!! but you never know it might something they are keeping under raps

New phone Sony xperia chaos with Quad core 2.5GHz Krait processor

Just a new xperia , its a new concept from sony ....
2.5ghz quadcore processor , 12 mp camera , etc
see the below link for more details
http://writehow.net/mobile/sony/475...quad-core-phone-with-a-2-5ghz-krait-processor
I love camera and display thing.
Also design is awesome.
Sent from my LT26i using XDA
I stopped reading at "quad core 2.5GHz"
Let's see, the newest announced quad-core Snapdragon with Krait APQ8064 is clocked around 1.5~1.7GHz.
And it is supposed to be available within 2012 (not available yet).
So when you think this 2.5GHz quad-core will be available?
I just hate these rumors that treat general consumers like idiots. And what I hate more is many consumers actually believe in this ****.
i dont worry so much how many % it is truth
for ex, xperia SX is expected to have GPU Adreno 320, and when it is uncovered, it is GPU Adreno 225.

Well i dont believe into rumours much but lately alot of rumors about few devices have became real like on the new lg phone it wasnt even rumoured few weeks ago and already accessories for it are available for rogers and fido..
But i doubt the clock speed would be that high tho...
But in someway it might make sense it could be quad core as the competition is tight between these 2 other companys : samsung and htc both offering quad core if im not wrong ..
Only one left out is sony ...

Come on people, the guy's a designer, not an engineer. If he doesn't know much about chipsets, don't blame him. When that design gets into right hands (if ever), we'll see a better matching hardware.
Some people just can't help themselves it seems.
Sent from my LT26i using XDA
2,5GHz Quadcore? 1,8GHz Quad is still possible but 2,5GHz seems take a long gap from the highest chipset now available
i think its just some concept by fans.
imho if it happen, the device must be overheated and battery is draining so fast. so its impossible for our technologies now.
That whole site reads like bull****. The language is broken English and childlike "Lot of memory for sure" and "processor which we see in most of the laptops". If you don't have fluent English writers, don't make your site in English.
The specs are just what we have now with higher numbers! Any idiot could guess those. The design is just a white Xperia S with the black bottom part!
More importantly, there is absolutely no substantiated evidence. No sources, no links, nothing.
Utter crap
I like the name of the device, it reminds me of something that like a 40 year old man living in his mothers basement playing World of Warcraft would make up. It sounds like it should come with a "Speed charger of 1000 truths" and NFC tags that double as action-figures.
The "Specs" are the icing on the cake...
Totally made up, probably some fan made wet-dream, or maybe even a troll to try and get hits on the site? I found it amusing though .

I don't know i was kinda shock its like the shelf life of high end phones around 6 to 7 months then wham a new version. Now I did read that the slll will have only a duel core due to the quad doesn't play well with lte. Maybe that's why a duel core. Idk. One thing I've noticed is the phones are never complete to me. The one x has the quad core great camera but then no sd card. The note great but doesn't have the s4 chip. It's like all the phones have one major features lacking just so u may have to upgrade or move on to the next one.
What about a phone that has
Quad core
Sd card
2gb of ram
Super almoled screen
Lte
Lastest os
Thin
Great camera
Great processor
The ultimate phone all the best of the recent phones. Now that would be hot.
Sent from my Xoom using xda premium
It won't be much longer and this phone will have been out for a year. My next Note will be an international one since LTE is not appealing to me. Bring it!
"Due to its incredible success Samsung has started to work on its predecessor the Galaxy Note 2."
Who writes these things? I doubt predecessor is the word they wanted to use.
Successor must have confused them
I don't buy it, the specs just don't add up. .2" bigger is quite bigger even though it doesn't seen so, only 1.5gb of ram whb the s3 has 2? The processor? Nah its a fake
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
Of course it's fake. Samsung has never stated that they intend to make another Note. It is pure conjecture.
Look what happened when they dropped the screen size half an inch with the S3. All of a sudden it is cool to have a ginormous screen. Hopefully it won't dissuade them to keep it above five inches.
The S3 is getting an SPen (called a CPen) very soon as well. Maybe the next Note will be one of the five Nexus phones dropping this year.
Who knows. Hell the one true fact of technology is you can't really keep up. There will always be the next hotness around the bend. Wow I didn't relize the note had been out so long I guess cuz Att just got it in March/April but i guess it has been out longer internationally.

That's how it usually works. International first and then the Americas. I am surprised the S3 is being released this quickly in the U.S. to be honest. Maybe they are trying to soak up some of the 'would be' iPhone 5 buyers although it is probably more along the lines of supply and demand.
Yea...I agree with you!

To many little things in this article don't add up fire me to believe any more than maybe the timing.
First, it's either written by someone whose native tongue is not English or something... And why would the SG3 get quad core and the revised note be dual core? Just because if the lte thing? Makes no sense.
And why would they repeat the crap about over 300 dpi again as they do.
The while thing: Smells funny to this kid and when it smells like poop, it usually is.

Will You Upgrade In The Future?

So, I have been using my SGS3 for about 6 weeks and I am loving it. This phone is loaded with so much technology that I can not really see what more I would need in a phone.
1.4 dual core CPU
2GB memory
LTE
GPS
Music and video player
Gorgeous 4.8" screen
Will this not last me a few years? This phone will not be obsolete any time soon.
What more would I really need in a phone? I know in the future phones will have more stuff built into them, but to what end? I can actually see myself using this phone until it is dead.
I know there are people who upgrade to the latest and greatest every time something new comes out, but the average person does not. So, will you upgrade to what ever comes out next , and if so, why? Or will you keep your phone for a while?
For those who will upgrade, what would you like to see in the next phone that the S3 does not already have? Coffee maker? Juice squeezer? Clothes Iron? Hamburger maker? Nail polish applier?

For me, is simply depends on my budget. If I got the money, I just change whatever best phone comes out

this ^ plus there's bound to be a whole host of features... Soon (well I'm hoping) phones will be completely voice controlled. although I quite like the gesture control (someone over in the apps forum has developed something)
There are never "needs" to upgrade just "desires". I will be upgrading if the next phone has HD Super Amoled Plus.
I've had all iphones ... then changed to android with the S2 and now the S3, i'm prepare for iphone 5 or Galaxy S4 ...

Depending on the design of the next Google Nexus phone, I'll be getting that.
Most likely it will be a Motorola product
It will be obsolete in 15 months. Trust me.
When the S2 was released, about 1 and a half years ago, people said the same thing: it'd the "the phone" for years to come. Now that I've had my S3 for about the same time as you, I look at my old S2 (that I gave to my wife) and think how was I able to use such a tiny screen!
The thing is: our expectations will shift upwards, new technologies will emerge and things we don't even know that exist today are things that a couple years from now we won't be able to live without.
I refrain my self from saying "this will be my phone for xx years", because I am a tech addict, a gadget junkie! I remember clearly that a couple weeks before the release of the S3 I wrote in the XDA S2 forums that I wouldn't spend a dime on moving from my S2 to the S3... until I held it in my hands! I wrote that there is nothing in the S3 that I couldn't have from the S2.... how wrong was I ?

Exactly the same with me
If they make a phone with
- no wake up lag
- no physical home key
- 2 GB RAM
and leave everything else the same as SGS3, I'll buy it immediately.
Galaxy nexus would be a perfect phone for me if it has sd card slot and better SoC at least like s2, now when google put tegra 3 in nexus 7 which performs really well it's obvious that next nexus phone will be equipped like this or even better . So i'm 95% sure Nexus 4 or whatever it's called, will bey next one

Agreed. Look at the activity on this forum. Doesn't seem to be a lot of us.
This phone will never get the respect it deserves because of the mid-range specs. People will never know until they actually play with one :/

Agreed. Look at the activity on this forum. Doesn't seem to be a lot of us.

Exactly. Probably the first smartphone which disproves how specs on paper can be misleading and not tell the whole story about actual, discernable performance.
My Mega is just as snappy as my former S4.
Sadly, we may or may not ever see another here in the US. However, I'm sure that in a year or so, we will be talking about flexible displays anyway so...

This phone is a sleeper hit. I think there will be a Mega 2 next year.
I think there would likely be a mega 2. Samsung has to keep producing not only high end but also midrange phones to remain competitive.

I hope so, but then we also have to hope that it comes again to AT&T. I'm just afraid that AT&T may not be selling enough of them to warrant a second one in their lineup.
Again, this is just speculative paranoia, but you never know and we know how much is going to change in a year or more.

Lets remember whilst we know the specs and what they me average joe doesent know the diff between snapdragon this or exynos that. 8t wont sell well compared to the others purely because its too big for the majority of users most people have called it a tablet when they seen it. So anyone walking into the shop and see this next to normal phones they will probably stray away from it. Unlike peeps like us who do believe bigger is better

i think yes, we will see but not better than what we have already now. Samsung released this mega in rush without big announcement before, it was in exact time when Huawei released their ascend mate. also the development for this device i don't think it will run good since Samsung don't want that.
Samsung releasing some hybrid devices only to exam the market from our pockets and to say we are here then they kill these devices and kill the people who screwed and owned them. exactly as same what happened for Galaxy tab 7.7 which did not repeated and did not get any update or custom roms for more than a year.
Their loss, my gain. Maybe I should buy 2 for when this one dies. Although that doesn't look like any time soon AT ALL. lol

VERY true, up here in BC, Canada, I have only seen one person throughout my university campus with a Mega, everyone else is rocking a stupid iphone (dont understand the sillyness of one), I've seen only a handful of windows phones, and 2 Bberry's
Still saving up my pennies so I can get a Mega, the bad thing is the limited dual-core inside of it. It isn't BAD but a quad-core would make the phone way better. I love large phones.
