Mobile phone carrier AT&T is gearing up for the release of Nokia Windows Phone on its airwaves, none other than the long rumored Nokia Lumia 900, which has just got detailed.

The handset should become available for purchase via the United States wireless carrier in the next few months. At the same time, it should be released in other markets around the world, though no specific info on the matter has emerged so far.

In the US, the handset sports the codename of Eloko and includes LTE connectivity capabilities, Pocketnow reports. Internationally, it is known as the Nokia Ace and lacks the feature.


When launched, the Lumia 900 will become the flagship Windows Phone from Nokia, and its hardware specifications say nothing different.

The handset will pack a 4.3-inch WVGA touchscreen display, along with a fast application processor, 512MB of RAM and the same amount of internal storage as Lumia 800, namely 16GB (hopefully, Nokia will included more memory inside it).

The new smartphone should hit shelves with an 1830mAh battery inside, as well as with an 8-megapixel photo snapper with support for HD video recording.

When released, the Lumia 900 is expected to run under the latest flavor of Windows Phone, Mango. Previous rumors suggested that it could run under the next Windows Phone iteration, Tango.

At launch, the new Windows Phone will sport 3G connectivity in the 1700MHz bands (making it fit for T-Mobile’s network), and will weigh 160 grams. It will be larger and heavier than Lumia 800, but will maintain the same thickness as the predecessor. It might keep the same outer design as well.

The Nokia Lumia 900 is said to make an official appearance as soon as next week during the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. Moreover, it appears that Nokia will make it official along with another new Windows Phone, the Lumia 719.

Android allows users to install applications on the microSD. Doing so on HTC Sensation should not be a problem.

Windows Phone devices do not offer support for memory cards yet (at least not for replaceable ones), but pack enough internal memory to allow for a great deal of apps to be installed.
