US carrier AT&T announced on Monday, March 26, 2012 the release date of Nokia Lumia 900 smartphone as well as its price, with pre-orders to start this coming Friday, March 30.

According to a press release by AT&T, Nokia Lumia 900 will be available starting April 8, 2012 for $99.99, with the Nokia Windows phone to run at 4G LTE network. As noted by AT&T, Nokia Lumia 900, which was unveiled during the Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2012) event last January by Nokia CEO Stephen Elop and the third Nokia Lumia smartphone series, will be available with a two-year contract.

“AT&T and Nokia‘s relationship spans many years and we’re thrilled to introduce their first 4G LTE Windows Phone. The Lumia 900 is impeccably designed with clean lines and a camera that rivals stand-alone digital cameras on the market today.” AT&T Mobility Devices SVP Jeff Bradley said.

“Combine that with the people-first Windows Phone experience and our 4G networks – the nations’ largest – and it’s clear that this is one of the best phones customers can find.” Bradley added, with the Nokia Lumia 900 to be available in cyan blue and a matte black on April 8; while the white version will be available starting April 22.

Back in February, Nokia announced that Lumia 900 will be available around the world in a DC-HSPA variant for high speed data connection in countries where LTE is not available, in which Europe and China are being expected to be included later.

Among the key features of the Nokia Lumia 900 includes having a 4.3-inch ClearBlack AMOLED display, an 8-megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics and a 1.4GHz single-core processor.
