Nokia 8800 Arte

Despite the expense (and the odd sapphire thrown in), is Nokia's 8800 Arte actually worth it?

Nokia 8800

Nokia's 8800 sells itself on its sleek lines and shiny exterior, but can the phone live up to its glamorous marketing campaign or is it a case of style over substance. We take a closer look.

Feels like it's worth a mint, bomb-proof casing, scratch-free screen

Tiny buttons, limited memory, cost

There really is no getting away from the glare factor, which follows you around when addictively sliding the case open and shut at a restaurant table.

Nokia 8800

The premium segment always lacked the offer from the main manufacturers, since that is not enough just to announce the device as status; it has to prove this name. Due to that plenty of status devices by unknown manufacturers using technological...
