Due to the battery not being removable, the phone didn't require a huge amount of setting up besides inserting the micro-sim into the roof of the device.
The device greets you first once you open the box and after pulling it out you're free to look underneath its bed where you find two boxes – one with documentation and the other with a free silicone case (I have to say I was happy when I saw that). You're then left with a mains charger, headphones and USB that's used for both data and power.Īssembly out of the box is next to none. Unboxing it was very typical of any smartphone.
The packaging is very much what you would expect from Nokia, eco-friendly and inevitably 100% recyclable. As the device was actually set to be my personal device I was anxious to open it (I had prolonged it so I could get a camera to take pictures for Neowin) but when it came to it I removed the casing to reveal the actual box. Regardless the Lumia comes in a plain blue outer box which typically lists such information as the IMEI and several other bar codes. The device I received was unlocked and therefore was free from network branding. Sadly it seems Nokia has removed some of the features from the N9 such as the front facing camera, but as Windows Phone doesn't have many applications for it this isn't such a big deal. The Lumia 800 is based on the design of the N9 and specification wise it's very similar too. Due to the 'Amazing Everyday' campaign, Windows Phone awareness seems to have risen, at least the statistics seem to suggest so. It appears that the company knew this too as they progressed to launch one of the biggest Windows Phone based campaigns that the operating system has ever seen (in Europe anyway). When the device was launched, it was not just another device from Nokia, it was a look into the future of Nokia. The main question we have on our hands is: is the Nokia Lumia 800 worthy of being a good Christmas present?įrom the early leaks of the Nokia “Sea-Ray” it was clear that the phone itself was going to be a very good looking phone, however the question of specifications and how Nokia would put its own spin on Windows Phone had journalists across the Internet pondering. Although we've seen this news there hasn't been much information about what the phone's actually like it's about time that happened. In the past few weeks Neowin has seen numerous bits of news about Nokia's flagship Windows Phone: the Lumia 800.
