The Nokia Lumia 900 is now on sale in the UK at Phones 4U – four days ahead of its rescheduled release date.
The Nokia device was originally meant to debut on 27 April but was put back by two weeks to 14 May following “overwhelming demand” across the pond after the US launch.
Phones4U confirmed to TechWeekEurope last month that the phone’s release would be delayed, but said those who had pre-ordered the device would be compensated with a pair of Nokia Purity by Monster in-ear headphones, in addition to their free Nokia Play 360 speaker.
The Lumia 900 was first announced at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas and features a 4.3-inch AMOLED Clearback display, a front-facing one megapixel high definition camera and 4G Long Term Evolution (LTE) connectivity, if such a network is available.
Its US launch was marred by a software glitch that prevented some users from connecting to networks. By way of apology, Nokia offered users a $100 credit to their phone bill and promised a fix to the bug.
The Lumia 900 is the successor to the Lumia 800, which was unveiled along with the Lumia 710 last October. These were the first products of a strategic partnership signed between Nokia and Microsoft for the Finnish manufacturer to use the Windows Phone OS on its smartphones.
