Nokia's Lumia 900 represents their first big push back into the US smartphone market. The device runs Windows Phone 7.5 and includes a 1.4GHz CPU, 512MB RAM, a Carl Zeiss rear camera, and a 4.3-inch AMOLED display — an improvement over the Lumia 800 screen.

Description

The Lumia 800 is Nokia's first Windows Phone handsets. The Lumia 800 is very similar to the Finnish company's N9 smartphone. Changes include a different processor, a smaller screen, the removal of NFC, and the change from the MeeGo OS. The Lumia 800 also has an added physical camera button. This phone is the flagship device of Nokia's first Windows Phone lineup.

The HTC One X represents the flagship model of the One series of Android smartphones from the company. It's powered by a quad-core Tegra 3 SoC clocked at 1.5GHz and feature a 4.7-inch 720p display protected by Corning's 2.5D Gorilla Glass. It has a new 8-megapixel dual-shutter camera that allows the user to take photos and video simultaneously, with an f2.0 aperture, 28mm wide angle lens, and back-side-illuminated sensor.

The iPhone 4S features the same design as the iPhone 4 and is the first device to support Apple’s new Siri “intelligent assistant” and dictation system. The 4S supports both CDMA and GSM, allowing global roaming. It has an updated camera with a 8-megapixel sensor that offers improved low-light performance and 1080p video recording.
