Nokia Lumia 800

So the good folks at the Verge just alerted everyone to the fact that you can pick up a Nokia Lumia 800 phone at select Microsoft Stores in the US.

What caught my eye was the price - $899!

The unsubsidized handset — along with the Nokia Play 360 speaker, Purity HD headset, and a Bluetooth earpiece is now available at stores.

So here's my question

    I'd buy a $900 phone for sure, but I'd only pay 200 for it.

  • Lugo531

    900.00 is it like magic jack you know free for 5 years

  • Chuckweld

    Pay $900 for a mobile !!!  It would have to have a 5 year unlimited use contract and make the coffee as well  :-)

  • Jhmcmurry

    for 900 it better come with a gold plated 1st aid kit, and onsite repair free of charge next day and same day service

    listem im getting sick of microsoft there making it harder for people who have already payed good money for thier os systems includeing my self all the way from 95 to vista ultimate, and then they pull a fast one on thier customers with win 7 leaveing all the people that have spent god knows how much on keeping up with thier os the only thing that would convince me that microsoft is worth staying with is at least provide win 7 to customers who have keep up and are useing vista ultimate when are they gonna learn that a good customer is always right and a good customer that sticks with them from 95 up should at least at least be offered win seven free convince me microsoft has its customers at heart

    900.00 does it never need to be recharged and works without a celltower??????

  • Lugo531

    If microsoft is so good why do they have so many updates or is that like getting married but keeping a  lawyers number on your speed dail

    • Alexander_rogers

      totally agree with you... i bought a macbook pro for 1100 dollars but i tell you what .. their customer service is waaay less bitchy, no product keys to fuck with, and he ones you do have are only to verify that particular app and u can use it as many times as u want with that copy....plus for $300 more i can run NATIVE windows....also lets not forget .. more durable materials , epic  9 hour battery life on low settings and not so many friggin updates.. at least when apple does updates they are major... i mean vista has how many now.. smdh,,,,,, lol

      • Alexander_rogers

        correction $200 lol

  • Meltonrj

    That is way too expensive for a phone. If it was like 200 maybe but not 900

  • Happyhaweater

  • Amd4me

    No phone is worth 899.00

  • Me

    WHAT ARE YOU KIDDIN !!!!!! All of Microsoft isnt worth $900.00

  • Gatorer

    i find my 20 dollar phone to be enough of a pain to run, i think if i spend 900 dollar on that phone i must sign my self in to the nut house because im nuts! 

  • Mr Underhill

    My cell provider would like me to get an iphone, even subsidized, it ain't happening. I won't pay the fee for web access on my cell I have now. I've been buying my phones from Wallyworld any way.

  • Propilot74

    Thats why we all sign up for 2 year contracts with major carriers.  This $899 phone will then cost us around $200.

    First of all, it's unlocked, part of the reason the price is so high. Second, the phone is part of a bundle with speakers, Bluetooth headset, and headphones.

    And by the way, if it was just the phone for $900, no one would buy it.

    Dear Onuora,

    Well it's only US$ 899! If by using that handphone maybe it'll bring you happiness and joy, and the mechanism of the lucky charm on business works, why not. Today many kinds of handphone are spread in the market showing it's unique fuctions, it'll fade away as time goes by, new model will be emerging to replace the old, at least we have taste the luxury and enjoy the call of the new tech world. Thank you.
