Nokia revealed their first Windows Phone devices today at an event at
the Excel Center in London, UK. The two new devices named Lumia 800 and
Lumia 710 are result of the $1 billion deal between Nokia and Microsoft
that took place earlier this year.
Nokia Lumia 800:
The stunningly social Nokia Lumia 800 features head-turning design,
vivid colors (cyan, magenta and black) and the best social and Internet
performance, with one-touch social network access, easy grouping of
contacts, integrated communication threads and Internet Explorer 9. It
features a 3.7 inch AMOLED ClearBlack curved display blending seamlessly
into the reduced body design, and a 1.4 GHz processor with hardware
acceleration and a graphics processor. The Nokia Lumia 800 contains an
instant-share camera experience based on leading Carl Zeiss optics, HD
video playback, 16GB of internal user memory and 25GB of free SkyDrive
storage for storing images and music. The estimated retail price for the
Nokia Lumia 800 will be approximately 420 EUR, excluding taxes and
subsidies.
Nokia Lumia 710:
The purposely built, no-nonsense Nokia Lumia 710 can be personalized
with exchangeable back covers and thousands of apps to bring the Lumia
experience to more people around the world. The Nokia Lumia 710 is
designed for instant social & image sharing, and the best browsing
experience with IE9. It is available in black and white with black,
white, cyan, fuchsia and yellow back covers. With the same 1.4 GHz
processor, hardware acceleration and graphics processor as the Nokia
Lumia 800, the Nokia Lumia 710 delivers high performance at an
affordable price. The estimated retail price for the Nokia Lumia 710
will be approximately 270 EUR, excluding taxes and subsidies.

Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain and the UK in November, with 31
leading operators and retailers providing unprecedented marketing
support in those first six countries. It is scheduled to be available in
Hong Kong, India, Russia, Singapore and Taiwan before the end of the
year, and in further markets in early 2012. The Nokia Lumia 710 is
