As of now, the Windows Phone powered Nokia Lumia 900 can only be availed in the US. But that won’t be long. You see, Nokia has officially announced that the international variant of the said handset will be released sometime within the second quarter of this year. The said statement was made by the Finnish company at the 2012 MWC.
Just like its US variant, the international version will highlight its built-in support for LTE and DC-HSPA. Thus, the smartphone can still offer its high-speed network connection (with speeds that could go as high as 42 Mbps) in countries without 4G LTE. This gives the Lumia 900 the advantage especially when being compared to those variants that can only allow you to surf via 3G.
For the sake of recap, allow us to refresh your memory with the phone’s impressive features and specifications. That being said, the Nokia Lumia 900 flaunts its vivid 4.3 inch AMOLED Nokia ClearBlack capacitive touchscreen with Corning Gorilla Glass and 480 x 800 pixels of full screen resolution. The smartphone can also take pride of its Windows Phone 7.5 Mango operating system that goes alongside with its 1.4GHz Scorpion Qualcomm APQ8055 Snapdragon chipset, Adreno 205 Graphics, 8 mega pixel rear facing camera with Carl Zeiss optics, auto focus and dual LED flash, 720p video recording, 1.3 mega pixel front facing camera, Stereo FM Radio with RDS, 3.5mm headphone jack, active noise cancellation with dedicated mic, 16GB of internal storage, 512MB of memory, Bluetooth 2.1 with A2DP, high-speed micro USB 2.0, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, HTML5 Browser, A-GPS and GLONASS.
