In a nutshell: It's Nokia's most exclusive phone to date, and you won't see many of these on the street. The 8800 Arte is crafted from premium materials, and should be considered as a luxury item, not a tech gadget or a workhorse phone. Still, it has 3G, a 3 megapixel camera, and a music player, as well as making you look good while you're making calls. But if you have to ask the price, then it's not the right phone for you! Best buy: £319.99 on contract from the Carphone Warehouse; or on Pay as you Go from the Carphone Warehouse at £699.95. The Nokia 8800 Arte is Nokia's latest in its premium range of phones. Following on from the 8800, 8800 Sirocco and 8600 Luna, it seems that the marketing guys at Nokia felt that £400 - £500 for a phone was no way nearly enough, so they have priced the 8800 Arte at close to double that. This is pushing prices towards Vertu levels (Nokia's ultra-exclusive brand), so the chances are you won't see many of these phones on the street. The standard 8800 Arte comes in a black metal and glass finish, but there's also a Sapphire Arte version. The Sapphire Arte looks like bling gone badly wrong. It's a kind of sludge colour with a real leather finish and incorporates a real jewel into the navigation key. Gentle reader, we couldn't bring ourselves to include a photo of this hideous creation on our website, so you'll have to use your imagination. The 8800 Arte is all about premium materials and subtle design details, especially in the way that the phone responds. For instance, if you tap the phone, the time appears on the display. If you want to silence a ring, you just turn the phone face down. The Arte features "living wallpaper" - wallpaper that changes depending on the time of day and the state of the phone, e.g. battery charge level, etc. As with the other premium range phones, the Arte comes with exclusive graphics, themes and ringtones. One of the problems with glossy black phones is that they act as fingerprint magnets, but Nokia have introduced a special anti-fingerprint coating for the Arte, which helps to keep the phone looking at its best. Feature-wise its a 3G mobile with a 3.2 megapixel camera with autofocus (no flash), a high quality display and a music player. Unlike the 8600 and Sirocco there isn't a radio - Nokia's market research probably revealed that a radio wasn't a big deal for the target market. There's no memory card, but it comes with 1 Gbyte of built-in memory, which will probably be enough for the kind of user Nokia has in mind. In other words it does enough but isn't all-singing and all-dancing. It's quite a heavy phone at 150g, due mainly to the use of metal, and its slim but not ultra-slim. It's narrower than Samsung's slide phones, making it nice and easy to hold. The only thing that could be improved physically is the rather small keypad. You get a lot of extras in the sales package (although when you remember the price, you can hardly describe this as "generous"), including a desk stand, a linen-lined pouch and a Bluetooth headset. How to rate such a phone? We have to consider who the Arte is aimed at. Obviously someone with plenty of disposable income who is looking for design and exclusivity ahead of the latest tech gadgets. Someone wanting to create an impression and willing to sacrifice some degree of usability. For this person, the Arte is the perfect phone, but there won't be many such people around. That's the point really. PLEASE VOTE FOR MERead full review
