Nokia may have just announced its first serious competitor to the Apple iPhone and many current high-end Android devices available in the market today in the form of the Nokia Lumia 800, but it's not about to leave the rest of us gadget-hungry consumers behind. In true Nokia fashion, the recently concluded Nokia World Expo in London also saw the launch of the Nokia Lumia 710, sort of a Nokia Lumia 800 for the rest of us. It features the same Qualcomm Snapdragon SoC (1.4GHz processor, Adreno 205 GPU, etc.) and even the same 3.7-inch 800x480 curved ClearBlack touchscreen display. It also has a very minimalist design, much like most of what's been coming out of Finland recently.
What's interesting about the Nokia Lumia 710 is that it's going to be available for only €270 or $375 USD (about 16,000 Pesos). It's scheduled to become available around the same places and at the same time as the Nokia Lumia 800, which means it probably won't be in the Philippines until early 2012. But don't fret, 2012 is only a couple of months away now, and once these new Lumia smartphones from Nokia become available in Taiwan and Singapore before the year ends, it shouldn't be hard to get a unit or two imported over the usual channels. That is of course if you feel that these handsets are actually worth waiting for.
