I was sceptical about this phone at first .... iPhones are so numerous! I shouldn't have been worried. The phone is indeed 'smart' and easy to use .... interfaces with email well. Fast reliable and well made. I just love the design. Cant wait to upgrade to the 920! (read more)

The phone is fantastic in every way. It is easy to use, and the windows running program is second to none. I have had a HTC windows phone previous and this Nokia is miles better. Battery lifer isnt the best, but what smart phone is?? The screen is clear and gives great detail in oictures, games etc. I have dropped mine a few times and it still works, fantasticly. Highly recocmened (read more)

The Nokia Lumia 800 is the first phone that has been released by the collaboration of Nokia and Windows. I am a fan of Nokia phones and had heard a lot about the Windows phone system from xbox live marketing, and i was pleasantly surprised with how well this phone works! The OS is simple and easy to use but looks really nice, using big blocks of colour to make it stand out. The integration of Xbox live has added some really fun and clever games to the system, however there are not as many... (read more)

As a business phone, the Nokia Lumia is rubbish. It was purchased on the strength of the previous Windows mobile software which used MS ActiveSync. I cannot believe that Microsoft Windows Phone 7 can no longer synchronise with Microsoft Outlook. As a pretty toy that allows Microsoft to access and control your communications it's probably pretty cool. Mine sits in it's box in the cupboard and I continue to use my old HTC HD2 running Windows Mobile 6.5 professional (read more)

The Nokia Lumia 800 is a very good attempt at Windows phone, firstly the design. The 800 is very sleek and nice to hold, it feels ok when making calls which is a plus, the phone itself is very well made, and doesn't feel like its going to fall apart. The screen is 3.7" which isn't bad, it could be bigger but they need the extra space for the windows keys. The colours that this screen can make and the sharpness of the colours (i must add, when brightness is set to high)are amazing, when added... (read more)

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. (read more)

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...

I agree, complete toy, lots of functionality for playing games and ckecking facebook but nothing actually useful. No USB functionality, no WiFi tethering, can't name radio stations??? No music/videos/podcasts except via Zune. Very few options for customisation. Privacy - many applications need access to phone/social media data to work. The only good feature is the screen
