Major players to stock Nokia Lumia 800

UPDATE: Check out our Hands on: Nokia Lumia 800 review

Major players in the UK phone industry have declared that they will be stocking the Nokia Lumia 800 – the eagerly anticipated handset that sports Windows Phone 7.5.

The smartphone will be available in black on Vodafone from launch, with a cyan version to come 'shortly afterwards'. Three will also 'range' black and Cyan.

The Nokia Lumia 800 UK release date has been set as 16 November, with a UK price without contract at £449.95

Specs

The Nokia Lumia 800 brings a 3.7-inch AMOLED screen, a 1.4 GHz processor and Carl Zeiss optics for the camera.

But it will be the Windows Phone Mango 7.5 integration that marks this out in the Nokia world, with the two companies desperate to see a high-profile partnership bear fruit.

Nokia's decision to go with Windows Phone 7 is hugely significant as the Finnish company has significant good will from a user base that has grown familiar with their handsets in the past.
