Awesome design - looks so sleek. Screen is robust. Performance and interface are really good. If you're looking for a first smartphone or a mid-range Windows phone, the Lumia 800 strikes the perfect balance. Both Nokia and Microsoft will be pretty pleased with the first fruits of their partnership.

All style with no subsctance! Unfortunately, having owned a Windows Phone for almost a year, there is a lot lacking in the OS, not to mention the lack of good apps (even the YouTube app by Microsoft is only a link to the mobile YouYube site!).
Mobile Office is nigh on unusable, the phone back button is badly thought out, and multi-tasking is a joke. Apps take an age to start each time, and Bing Maps and search are useless. I have to use Google maps without GPS in the browser to get round London!
Let's hope Nokia wise up and start making Android phones too, otherwise they'll soon be consigned to the same historical dustbin as Ericsson, Alcatel, Sagem, Sendo...
