Nokia's partnership with Microsoft

After Microsoft came into partnership with Nokia, Nokia came out with the Lumia 800 that is powered by Microsoft's Windows Phone 7 Operating System. I wasn't really anticipated about Nokia phones at the beginning during their announcement, but shortly after, when I got my hands on with the Lumia 800, it changed by perspective towards how Nokia engineered their phones. Nokia is a great company that produces creative and beautiful hardware, but they couldn't find the recipe for a proper software to suit the phone. But after collaborating with Microsoft to use their software for their own hardware, it was a life-changing moment for Nokia. I strongly believe that more users would be choosing Nokia phones than Android phones in the near future. This partnership with Microsoft definitely benefits Nokia in the long term in the mobile industry. The Lumia 800 should be the foundation of the quality Nokia phones should be as I was impressed by both the hardware and software.
