Reviews are coming in of the Nokia Lumia 710, a low-end smartphone and Nokia’s first to run Windows Phone 7.5 Mango. The L.A. Times, for instance, gives it a nice little review, saying, “Is the Lumia 710 a good smartphone or not? Simply put, it is.” At $49.99 on a two-year T-Mobile contract, the phone is not hugely ambitious, but the specs are all there: a 3.7-inch touchscreen, a single-core 1.4-gigahertz Snapdragon processor from Qualcomm, 512 MB of RAM, 8 GB of storage, a 5-megapixel camera with flash. The whole thing performs well, per the Times; and the reviewer was especially impressed with Nokia Drive, a turn-by-turn voice navigation app.
