14 DAY TRIAL // It comes to no surprise that Nokia Lumia 900 is the best Windows Phone device now available on the market. However, the Finnish company likes to brag about it every time someone else says it openly.
This time it was “Consumer Reports,” which apparently has a great reputation in the US for its objective recommendations when it comes to various products found on the marketplace.
The non-profit organization recently included the Nokia Lumia 900 in the “Top 7 electronics gifts for dads and grads.” According to Consumer Reports’ electronics experts, the Lumia 900 is the perfect smartphone choice when it comes to making gifts.
“The Nokia Lumia 900, which runs on AT&T’s high-speed 4G LTE network as well as its HSPA+ 4G network, is the best Windows phone we’ve tried so far. It also has some stunning features: a 4.3-inch AMOLED display and an 8-megapixel camera with a wide-angle (28mm), large-aperture (F2.2) Carl Zeiss optics, for starters. It’s $100 with a two-year contract,” – Consumer Reports.
Although Nokia Lumia 900 is certainly the best smartphone powered by Windows Phone operating system, it can barely go against top tier Android phones.
Still, the fact that the Finnish handset manufacturer was willing to offer the Lumia 900 for such a low price in the United States proves once again that the company bets everything on Windows Phone platform.
Affordability aside, Nokia Lumia 900 offers LTE support, which is a mandatory feature in North America where most major carriers provide 4G LTE services.
The 8-megapixel rear photo snapper comes packed with Carl Zeiss optics, dual-LED flash, autofocus and HD (720p) video recording. There’s also a 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera for video calls.
The phone’s 4.3-inch AMOLED capacitive touchscreen display is based on Nokia’s ClearBlack technology, but, sadly, it is limited by the mobile platform to only 480 x 800 pixels resolution.
