The Lumia 800 was a quick and dirty job to get a mainstream WP 7 phone on the market FAST.

My eyes don't care about the tech behind Pentile. It just looks rubbish and the colour inconsistencies and dancing and glowing text characters were the primary reason for me to ditch the N9 in disgust a couple of weeks after I got it. Yes I have checked other N9's.. Same or worse problems.

Nokia is infamous for insulting customers with bad screen tech. Try to find an N8 with a good (non purple tinted screen)

They just count on the majority of their users to not notice or be undemanding.
