Nokia Lumia 800 video demo

FINNISH PHONE FIRM Nokia's scientists are hard at work on making smartphones more durable and adding a raft of interactive capabilities.

Nokia showed off the Kinetic Concept device for the first time today. Users will be able to twist the device to flick through lists, bend the device to activate a selected option and even squeeze the handset to answer phone calls. The applications for gaming purposes are also endless.

Nokia remained tight-lipped about software and specifications, but did say that it has been working on such concepts since 2008. It remains to be seen whether this device will actually make it to market, but the possibilities are intriguing, especially with Windows 8 on the horizon. µ

This phone is very good and i have a iphone 4s and i think this nokia is better in more ways than one . You guys need to have a go on one and you be surprised how good this phone is

that one should be N9, another potential device from nokia that failed to catch deep attention from its maker

tech has always been superior at nokia but same time they have been lacking the user interface to use it completely... im pretty sure with windows the phones will be really awesome...

Nice! I'm pretty sure it equals the iPhone qualitywise. Just needs a front facing camera, 1080p recording and nfc.
