It is Official that T-Mobile USA will come with the First Windows Phone Lumia 710 from Nokia in the USA by Jan 11 2012. T-Mobile & Nokia Mobiles announced on Dec 14 2011 the Upcoming availability of Nokia Lumia 710.

Nokia Lumia 710 is the first Windows Phone from Nokia in the U.S., and it has been long anticipated since Microsoft Corp. and Nokia signed a partnership deal to have Nokia adopt Windows Phone as its “primary smartphone operating system” in a bid to stay competitive in the mobile industry.

The deal could be a big one for Bellevue-based T-Mobile, which is the only major wireless carrier without an iPhone in its lineup and faces increasing opposition to its proposed $39 billion merger with AT&T.

The Lumia — which has caught some attention not only as the second coming of Nokia, but for the unfortunate coincidence of its name translating as "prostitute" in Spanish — will give first-timers (and more experienced users) a 4G experience at an entry level price of $49 (after a $50 mail-in rebate, with a two-year commitment to the carrier). Unlimited family value plans (which include calls, texts and data) start at about $50.

"Our strategic mission is to bring 4G data and smartphones to mass of 150 million people who have yet to upgrade to a smartphone," said T-Mobile senior product manager Rhone Rarick, in an interview earlier today.

"We've seen from research, with consumers upgrading to smartphones, there is an intimidation factor. Windows Phone is a light touch operating system," Rarick said. "It doesn't require a lot of maintenance. You don't have to download a ton of apps for a great social experience. It's a very intuitive experience from screen to screen."

Nokia unveiled its first Windows Phones -- the Lumia 710 and the Lumia 800 -- back in October, but said they wouldn't be available in the U.S. until 2012. Nokia has been heavily marketing the two devices in Europe.

Nokia is banking on its partnership with Microsoft – on whose operating system Nokia is now mostly dependent – to regain its former dominance in the mobile world. The success of the Nokia partnership is also critical for Microsoft as it looks to boost its smartphone market share beyond 5 percent and compete with the iPhone as well as Google's Android devices.

T-Mobile says it is targeting the nearly 150 million Americans who have yet to purchase their first smartphone.

The device is expected to be available at T-Mobile retail stores, select dealers and retailers nationwide, and online from T-Mobile starting Jan. 11. The Nokia Lumia 710 is expected to be priced at $49.99 after a $50 mail-in-rebate card if buyers sign a two-year service agreement.

Lenovo is known for it's Laptop, Notebook pc & other Computer Accessories. Lenovo also launched three new LePad tablets recently in Beijing and it's now coming three LePhone K2, S2 and S760 Android Smartphones to add the product lineup.

Lenovo LePhone K2

The Lenovo LePhone K2 is the more attractive among of the two andoroid smartphones. The Lenovo LePhone K2 is going to be its flagship Android smartphone & other impressive features like 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, an 8-megapixel camera capable shoot of 1080p video capture, 4.3-inch IPS display, 1GB of RAM and 1GB of storage. The S2 is a lowrange device, with a 3.8-inch 800 x 480 TFT display, single-core 1.4GHz Qualcomm chip, and comes in two variants: a model with 1GB of RAM and 16GB of storage, or a 512MB version with 8GB onboard. Both offer an 8-megapixel CMOS camera for taking stills or 720p video, and weigh in at 4.23 ounces. It runs Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread, just like all the other smartphones announced by Lenovo.

Unfortunately for those looking to jump in with Google's latest and greatest, the K2 and the S2 will both be running a skinned version of Gingerbread, with no word on whether they'll be receiving the upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich. While there's no pricing or availability details on the K2 yet, the WCDMA version of the S2 is on sale starting today for RMB 2,990 ($468), with a TD-SCDMA variant to come in the near future.

Lenovo LePhone S760:

Like its brothers, it runs Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread too, and is embellished (or disfigured, depending on how you look at it) with Lenovo’s custom UI. It will offer a 5 MP camera. As with the K2, there are no prices yet, but it’s expected to ship at the end of December.

LG Mobiles held a Press conference for the New LG Nitro HD 4G LTE Smartphone for AT&t in USA. This conference gave us a chanse to get the first look up & Hands-on of the LG Nitro HD 4G LTE Smartphone.
The LG Nitro HD is certainly a phone worth getting exciting about. The LG Nitro HD 4G comes with Great features like 4.5-inch, 720p display which is really suit to it's name, it is powering wih Dual- Core, 1.5 GHZ Qualcomm Snapdragon processor and running on Android gingerbread 2.3 OS with LG's Cusotm user Interface. But the Main and awesome features of the LG Nitro HD 4G is it's 1280 x 720 pixel True HD AH-IPS display with a 500 nit brightness rating.

The LG Nitro HD feels really light weight on hand & it's rear highly textured cover adds a little grip to the phone. The display of this phone is really a pleaseu to look at, being both bright and Sharp, but does manage to make the phone relatively large. Even if LG Nitro smartphone to be easier to hold than any other of the current large-display smartphone models on the market.

Better yet, the Nitro HD has true 4G LTE on AT&T, and though they don't have many markets covered, they've been expanding aggressively. In fact, New York City just got lit up with LTE on AT&T, and our home market (one of the first) has the Nitro downloads averaging 20Mbps and 9Mbps up. That's particularly heartwarming for those of us who want to use the mobile hotspot feature and turn the phone into a high speed wireless modem for 3G and 4G deprived tablets and laptops.

The phone is surprisingly light and fairly slim, with the 1770 mAh Lithium Ion battery contributing most of the smartphone's scant weight. In terms of speed, the Nitro feels zippy enough and it tears through 1080p high profile MPEG4 video, both to the display and to an HD TV using an MHL adapter (not included). The phone has 4 gigs of storage, with 1.86 gigs available and AT&T includes a 16 gig microSD card to make up for the paltry internal storage. The Nitro manages 2400 on the Quadrant benchmark.
