On Nokia Lumia 800 there’s 512MB RAM as opposed to a full 1GB in the N9. Built-in storage is 16GB, next to the N9’s 64GB. Nevertheless, the Lumia 800 does feature many of the best bits of the N9 – the same professional finesse of a tough polycarbonate shell and a convex Gorilla Glass display. The volume rocker, powerlock and camera buttons on the right side are all metal, and there’s a trim speaker grill on the bottom edge. Up top a 3.5mm jack sits next to a dustflap-protected MicroUSB port and microSIM slot. It’s quite a chunky gadget at 12.1mm thick; it’s a squat Wholesale MLB Hoodies , angular design, yet there’s no excuse for the Lumia bulk – the HTC Titan contoured 9.9mm-thick chassis crams in a larger 4.7″ display.
Inside the oversized casing the Lumia 800 sports a 1.4GHz Qualcomm processor, a slower-clocked version of the same 1.5GHz CPU found in the Titan.

Neither camera handles autofocus well during video capture. The iPhone 4S, Galaxy SII and Galaxy Note all have better cameras.
Windows Phone Mango OS is fast and visually satisfying, as well as easy to use, be it social networking Wholesale Hats , maps, search, cloud storage, folder syncing, or anything else.
