Nokia Lumia 900 Confirmed By NYT, Introduction On Monday

January 8, 2012 | By Liwen Guo

The New York Times has all but confirmed the Nokia Lumia 900 through two unnamed sources. The “sleek and metallic” Lumia 900 will be headed to AT&T in the US and be introduced on Monday at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.

The Lumia 900, also known as the Ace, is expected to feature a 4.3″ AMOLED display, 512MB RAM, an eight-megapixel camera, and an LTE radio. The only thing that’s potentially unclear at this point is where the “sleek and metallic” design, as mentioned by the NYT, should fit in, as the Lumia 800 is manufactured out of polycarbonate, a high-quality plastic. Whether the industrial design of the Lumia 900 will be different, or whether the polycarbonate was just mistakenly described as metallic, our own Andrew Bares will hopefully find out tomorrow.

We recommend you to read the full article on the New York Times, as it goes into quite some detail about the history of Windows Phone.

I cannot wait to see what it’s like and I really hope that Swisscom wasn’t mistaken when they said it would come end of February. if it does end up coming to Switzerland, and looks as great as the 800, I’m definitely buying one.

If this is ture why hasnt it passed through FCC?
Hasnt the 800 with 4g passed through FCC though?

Same expectations happened at the UK nokia event, and we got no 4.3″. Dont be disappointed though, I have the Lumia 800 and it is a beautiful phone, and I couldnt be more in love with it

It should have, I think it was mentioned somewhere. Besides, the leaked shots show one.

I love the fact it has 512MB of RAM, it means that current devices have a long life in coming updates

I dom’t like the look of the 900 (from the pic you have above) it looks like the screen part and the shell part are seperate. On the 800 everything looks like it is together.

I’m pretty sure it will have the build of the 800 with just a bigger screen.

That NYT article was a great read. Thanks for that.

It’s really sad to see so many root against this OS. It truly is exactly the kind of thing that pushes tech forward. To have a previously cumbersome behemoth like MS actually behind it makes me more excited for the future of tech than I’ve been in a long time.
