Nokia Lumia 900 slated for a mid-March launch

16 Jan, 2012 | by Aaron Almeida |

The Nokia Lumia 900 was officially unveiled at CES last week after months of speculations and rumours regarding the upcoming flagship handset from the Finnish manufacturer. At the time of the announcement, this handset was set to be the first LTE capable smartphone from the brand that was announced for the US’s AT&T network. However, at the time of the unveiling, there was no launch date specified. But this has changed to a degree as a report by WMPoweruser states that in a Nokia Developer Newsletter, the handset is slated for a March release in the US.

We’ve already established that the Lumia 720 is Nokia’s best effort as far as Windows Phone 8 handsets go. This could soon change once the Lumia 925 hits markets, but as it stands now, the Lumia 720 offers the best blend of features and performance, wrapped in a beautiful package that’s quite affordable.
