update firmware Nokia Lumia 800

Nokia’s first Windows Phone handset , the Lumia 800 has received its 3rd major update since launch. The update reportedly fixes the fairly average battery life of the handset. Initial reports estimate upto triple the battery life compared to the previous update.
 Earlier this week in Refresh Roundup, we wrote of a Vodafone-branded update for the Lumia 800 with a designation of 1600.2487.8107.12070. Among the enhancements, the new software version was said to provide longer battery life -- a welcome improvement, no doubt -- but we could've never guessed the significance of the gain. The folks at WPCentral recently forced the update onto their own phones and, get this, they assert the new software has nearly tripled(!) their battery life. While our heads are still spinning at the assertion, they claim the improvements are in part due to better management of the screen's brightness and cite an approximate discharge of 70mA when idle. Meanwhile, reports in the forums of xda-developers claim that battery drain is in the neighborhood of 80mA and 90mA when idle -- not quite as stunning, but still a huge improvement in comparison to the approximate 150mA discharge with the previous version. While your mileage may vary, this latest update could prove to be a true godsend for Lumia 800 owners.

T-Mobile : Nokia Lumia 710 is being made as a $349 prepaid option

At $49.99 with a 2-year contract, the Nokia Lumia 710 seemed quite tempting right out of the gates when it was launched, but then its price was slowly chomped down to $39.99, and eventually to that lovable free price point. Naturally, postpaid customers have been relishing in the love of being able to check out the first Nokia Windows Phone in the US, but it appears as though it’s making its way to the carrier’s prepaid lineup as well.

For a brief moment in time, T-Mobile had the Nokia Lumia 710 selling for $200 no-contract with free shipping online, but it seems that the deal has expired and the smartphone has been pushed back to its normal $349.99 pricing. Nevertheless, it might still prove to be big savings for those individuals that don’t want to be a slave to a contract of some kind.

Considering that most smartphones sell outright for $500 and above, this $349.99 pricing isn’t bad at all – though, we have to admit it’s still a tossup. Specifically, it’s either this or forking out nothing to pick it up with a contract, which would mean paying T-Mobile either way for service.

Whichever way you go, it’s worth noting that it’s not every day we find a Windows Phone gracing a carrier’s prepaid lineup, especially when most of the ones we’ve seen thus far have been offered as postpaid devices and nothing else. If you’re not one-hundred percent sold by it just yet, simply wait a bit of time, and it’ll eventually receive some additional price cuts to make it a no-brainer decision. Any takers now it’s being offered as a prepaid option?

Nokia Lumia 800 in a MACH 5 Wind Tunnel Test

Lumia 800, Nokia’s first Windows Phone device is a tough little guy. We already saw it  enduring scratch and drop tests, but it can do much more than that, it seems.  Nokia has tested it to the full, and even put it inside a MACH 5 wind tunnel to see if it could withstand the test. And it did.  As you can see in the video embedded above, the Nokia Lumia 800 smartphone continues to work  even after being subjected to the extreme pressures in MACH 5 wind tunnel.  MACH 5 is classed as 'hypersonic,' though Nokia Lumia 800 might not be able to deliver such fast  speeds when it comes to browsing the Internet or downloading files.  Of course, it still has a lot to offer, and can certainly outperform many of its rivals, as other Windows  Phone devices already managed to

The Nokia Lumia 719 has just passed it’s bluetooth certification. The phone’s features are:

• 3.7″ Clear Black Display
• 5 Megapixel Camera with Autofocus and HD Video Recording
• Turn by Turn Navigation etc

The handset regions include Asia and both North and South America. The features seem quite similar to the Lumia 710 and so this could very well be a region specific version of the Lumia 710. But since we have not much other information regarding the handset, we cannot confirm this for now.
