Nokia and T-Mobile have announced the Lumia 810 which will be an exclusive device to the carrier. The phone will sport a 4.3in OLED display, exchangeable shells in cyan and black, 8 MP camera, 1.2-megapixel Skype HD certified front-facing camera and all of your other standard Nokia software options.
The phone will be exclusive to T-Mobile in the US and will be the follow-up device to the Lumia 710 that T-Mobile had previously been selling. For Nokia, they want to win at the entry level as well as the high end market to claw back the market-share that they have been bleeding for the past few years.
Like all of the other devices that have been announced, we do not know a pricing or launch date at this time.
