hey there this is Adam Lane Pocono calm and in this video we're gonna do a hardware tour of the Nokia Lumia 900 for 18 t let's check it out so here we are with these Lumia 900 now let's take a quick look around the device let's start up here there's your Nokia logo a front-facing camera some light sensors there's your speaker grille 18 t logo at the bottom we have our capacitive buttons back Start screen search over here are all of our hardware buttons volume up and down power is right there in the middle camera button now the camera button is very flush it doesn't stick out that much and it's a little bit hard to tell what is a half press and what is a full press but it works pretty well actually now at the top you have your micro USB port a headphone jack and this is the SIM card slot but we need the special key to pop it open so it comes out like that and you want to hold it this way and your SIM card and what what is that a QR code not sure why that's there or what that does but okay let's put it back together and on this side it's just straight polycarbonate pretty nice and smooth on the bottom we have a speaker and on the back we have your eight megapixel Carl Zeiss lens and camera with an F 2.2 Apter and the 28 millimeter equivalent wide-angle field of view with a dual LED flash and the back is really nice very smooth now the texture the way to the I would describe the texture is it feels kinda like paper I mean you know it's plastic it's very sturdy but that it's a very matte texture mm-hmm seems to get a little bit of fingerprints there now something else about the screen that it's it's different than the 800 it's very flat and there's a little Ridge around the edges the lumen 800 was very smooth very contoured with the shape of the polycarbonate body this one you you have a very noticeable edge you can see it over here too now I think the advantage that is that it might protect the screen a little bit better if you drop it like that now our review unit is in the black on April 8th this will be available in the black and the cyan blue color so that you can get a version in this color this is the Lumia 710 but that's a good example of what your color options are going to be so you can imagine this in this color and that'll be one of your choices 20 second a white version of this will also be available in the 18 t stores not online however the black and the cyan versions will be available online as well as the stores so one of the special things about this is that it has 18 t 4G LTE so let's do a little speed test the speed will depend on your location of course so over here we're getting about eight and we're getting about nine point three download speeds over here we're getting two points eight upload but only a very slow upload on the 18 TLT now for benchmarks we're getting some pretty decent scores you see the Lumia 900 about 89 or so so it's a little faster than a lot of devices but not as fast as some likely tightened now let's look at the display so here's the Lumia 900 right next to the Samsung Focus s with their Super AMOLED display and let's add check out let's comparison of course we're looking pretty close let's look at the blacks very close again both of these are on their highest brightness level so we see a little bit of difference in the whites color ramp very close slightly different white levels here tor seems pretty consistent now let's see it compared to the Lumia 710 on t-mobile this is not an AMOLED display so we should see some differences here you can see this one is a bit blacker the better blacks on this one colors green ice now again both of these are highest brightness and we see much brighter whites over here now let's do the and you can see quite a color shift with the Lumia 710 the camera so far I've only done a few little tests be sure to check out the review the full review for some more in-depth comparisons but it seems pretty much the same as the Lumia 800 which is good I have a front-facing camera as a this includes a wide-angle camera on the front so instead of just getting a video call of up your nose you can you'll probably be able to see you know the whole person space and maybe two people so overall I'm really enjoying the feel of this device I really like the ergonomics if you hold it with your left hand you can touch all the buttons with your fingers over here and it's really well designed so that's it for our hardware tour of the Nokia Lumia 900 I'm sure to check out our full review and that's it for now
