Nokia's Lumia 900 reviewed: big, shiny, and very sturdy

Nokia's Lumia 800 has barely had enough time to sit on store shelves, but the company is already improving upon it, adding a bigger version of the handset designed to compete with the big screen phones like the Samsung Galaxy S3 and HTC One X . Is this the biggest and best Windows phone yet?
Pros:
  • Excellent voice quality
  • Very speedy
  • Solid build
Cons:
  • Could be a heavy phone for many
  • Screen resolution is relatively low and poor quality in comparison to competition
  • Limited upgrade path

Nokia Lumia 900 review

The Lumia 900 is a great smartphone that will be welcomed by existing Windows Phone users. However a lack of real changes means that the device is unlikely to entice iOS and Android users to move platforms.
Pros:
  • Solid and attractive design
  • good overall performance
  • reasonable battery life
  • decent camera
  • shows off the best Windows Phone has to offer
Cons:
  • Windows Phone's app offering is still trailing behind iOS and Android's
  • needs Zune to connect the device to a PC

Nokia Lumia 900 review

If the Lumia 900 fails to gain traction in the U.S. market, it will pose a huge problem for Nokia and for Microsoft. It won't signal the immediate end for either company in America, of course, but will leave both companies in a very difficult spot.
Pros:
  • The overall user experience offered by the Nokia Lumia 900 is fantastic
  • This stems from Microsoft's mobile platform which, despite being praised regularly by gadget reviewers, has failed to gain widespread adoption.
Cons:
  • Considering Nokia's pedigree, I was absolutely shocked the first time I used the camera on the Lumia 900
  • To put it plainly, as good as the hardware design is on the Lumia 900 is as bad as I found the camera to be.
