No sooner has the Nokia Lumia 900 been announced and it has already won four awards! Scooping up some great accolades since it was unveiled at CES 2012 in Las Vegas last week, the new Nokia Windows Phone joins the Nokia Lumia 800 as one of the most instantly celebrated Windows Phones we've seen to date.

For starters it picked up the Best Smartphone award in the CNET Best of CES Awards 2012, blowing the competition out of the water to be the clear winner at this year’s CES show. Then the Nokia Lumia 900 went on to win an editor’s choice award for CES 2012 from the renowned Popular Mechanics magazine.
Next up was Popular Science’s The Best of CES 2012: PopSci's Products of the Future award, where PopSci called the Nokia Lumia 900, “the follow up to the best Windows Phone on the market.” And finally, the Lumia 900 then also nabbed a spot in LAPTOP magazine’s Best of CES awards.
Racking up such outstanding acclaim just a few days after its announcement, the Nokia Lumia 900 is following firmly in the footsteps of the Nokia Lumia 800, winning praise right out of the gate. We can’t wait to see what other awards it will now go on to win over the coming months, as we’re sure this is just the beginning.
