PC Magazine has posted a review of the Nokia 8801 so called luxury phone. Although they liked some of the features and were impressed with the looks, they were not thrilled with the device. Check out the review for yourself.
"Made from top-quality materials, the Nokia 8801 feels like a luxury item. But its high price and relatively thin set of features (groundbreaking stereo Bluetooth music playback notwithstanding) prevent it from being the RAZR-killer it could be.
Shimmering, warm, and almost like liquid metal, the stainless-steel 8801 is luscious to the touch. At 4.8 ounces, it's heavy enough to feel solid, and it slides into a pocket easily. The glass-covered 1.7-inch, 208-by-208 screen has rich colors and looks great in sunlight. Pressing just below the bottom center of the screen snaps the keypad up out of the casing decisively. A set of soothing, rich, Asia-inspired ringtones is also included. The phone comes with an elegant charging stand that glows softly blue and displays your phone as if it were a work of art."
