Nokia is biggest brand in INDIA but LUMIA 800 does not support HINDI Language. So we can't read Hindi SITE or Hindi dictionary with this phone

Camera phones are important .. they help people trade and are useful for other stuff too (for example send a pic of a wound to a doctor so they can tell whether it's infected and worth coming to the hospital for). In order of importance .. for the developing world .. phones should have .. 1) call ability 2) texting ability 3) Camera -cheap phone camera systems cost 50 cents from OEM 4) flashlight 5) GPS -GPS chip is $1

It's white dude and it will be arcvattite when you hold it in public. You're brown right(not stereotype) ? so people will see the phone twinkling in your hands.White is not a gayish or a lame color. White ruled the MAN for hundreds of years i.e. white tshirts and Nokia is just so smart to start the trend of multicolor variants for a flagship phone. =)

I wouldn't buy this phone for the simple reason that the battery can't be changed

It is worrying to see HTC, Sony and now Nokia following the bad example of Apple in making sure you throw away your expensive smartphone after 18/24 months because the battery has worn-out and replacement requires an uneconomic service fee

Maybe we should also start making cars that need to be scrapped when the tyres or brake pads wear out?

> In reply to geeksquad @ 2012-04-09 01:06 from xZwK - click to readIt's not true that latest software release 1600.2487.8107.12070 has completely corrected problems with sound in music player in Lumia 800. I've got it from my employer a week ago with this release preinstalled. The headset which came with the phone (WH-902 or -901 series?) works fine - it's true. I can even say that sound is one of the the bests I ever had in mobile phones. I was very surprised especially after all those infinite discussions about bad quality of music player in Lumia. I presume this headset is simply optimized for Lumia. But unfortunately it has so big speakers (why so basic and obsolete design anyway???) that I cannot use it, it simply don't fit my ears. I also need the microphone. So I ended up buying Purify Monster Nokia headset claimed to been designed especially for the Lumia and presenting the best quality. But it was a disaster! No low frequencies at all and powerless volume control. Also the stop-button didn't work. I returned this and got another one for trying - there was the same issue again with bass and volume. After that have also tryed WH-701 (claimed to be compatible with Lumia 800) - this didn't work at all! Buttons didn't respond and sound... well it was next to nothing. I have emailed to the Nokia and they suggested bluetooth BH-214 and BH-505. Does anyone have some experience of using those devices? Needless to say I have no enthusiasm to by some expencive hi-fi headsets without microphone and especially without any certainty about how they works with Lumia.
