Bangalore: Nokia and AT&T announced the first LTE (Long-Term Evolution) enabled Windows Phone, Nokia Lumia 900 for the U.S. market. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer who made a surprise appearance at AT&T developer summit in CES 2012 said that AT&T would be the first to offer LTE with Windows Phones.

Lumia 900 looks very similar to Lumia 800 and has 4.3 inch touchscreen AMOLED ClearBlack display at 800×480 pixels of resolution. Lumia 900 is powered by 1.4 GHz processor and 512 MB RAM. It also has a stunning 8 MP camera rear camera with Carl Zeiss optics, LED flash and a front facing camera.

Along with Nokia Lumia 900, AT&T announced HTC Titan II to have LTE network with Windows Phone OS for the U.S. market. HTC Titan II features 16 MP rear camera with dual flash and 1.3 MP front facing camera for video chat. It’s powered by 1.5 GHz Snapdragon processor and 4.7 inch touchscreen display. This phone also features HSPA+, Wi-Fi. Bluetooth and more detail specifications are not yet revealed by HTC. It is expected HTC Titan II will hit the market before Nokia 900.

AT&T has also announced other six new Android devices with LTE network including Samsung Galaxy Note and waterproof tablet from Pantech.

Nokia’s Lumia 800 (29,999) has already reached Indian market and we expect to see Lumia 900 soon, but Indian customers will not able to use the device’s full potential due to the lack to 4G technology in India.
