  • Features a large, thin display that recognises fingers, hands and other objects placed on the screen – supporting up to 50 points of contact at one time.
  • 40-inch Full HD 1080p (1920×1080) LCD LED panel combined with Gorilla protection glass for optimized screen durability and to protect from external shock and liquid ingress.
  • Offers a rich sound experience that can connect to a wide range of peripherals such as bar code scanners, cameras and printers through WiFi (802.11.n), Bluetooth or Ethernet connections.

On 9 & 10 March, Microsoft took to the streets in Singapore (including at the IT Show) and challenged smartphone users on a series of tasks to see whether their devices were faster than the Windows Phone.

If they won, they got $100. If they lost, they had to tell the world that they got #smokedbywindowsphone.

After 2 days, the results are – 38 wins, 3 draws, 3 losses. The 3 losses were to iPhones, if I’m not wrong.

Does speed of usage really matter to you? If so, maybe a Nokia Lumia 800 Windows Phone 7.5 might be for you.
