The very colourful Nokia 710 has a range of back covers that are completely interchangeable. Three of chose are seen above (white, yellow, magenta) I think blue and black are also available but not seen here. In addition there are the cases that the whole 710 sits in. Looking at the featured post for today, [...]

James Taylor from EA demoes FIFA 12 on the S40 Touch and Type, Nokia Asha 303. This video was recorded on the Nokia N8. It does focus properly, so don’t worry about watching a completely blurry video. (As you’ve seen and will see in other videos we’ll be uploading, it’s mostly very fast when focusing). [...]

Video: Angry Birds smashes half a billion downloads!

One of Finland’s finest, Angry Birds now has over 500,000 million downloads. Half a Billion downloads of Angry Birds?! Crickey! It’s no surprise really, given that it’s possibly the first “app” anyone thinks of when talking about smartphones. It’s going to reach even further scales now Nokia is pushing it into their s40 mobile phones [...]

Video: 3 minute disassembly of the Nokia N9

| November 2, 2011 | 26 Replies

You might have seen the N9 disassembly pictures from the service manual. Perhaps you saw the internal photos from FCC.  The most gruesome, or tantalising perhaps though is video. Seeing the innards be dissected out, showing for certain where everything goes inside to make the whole thing work. There’s a 3 minute video below (in Russian?) disassembling the N9. [...]

Nokia selects ST-Ericsson’s Dual Core NovaThor for future Windows Phones

| November 2, 2011 | 86 Replies

So this was reported in February that Nokia would be choosing ST-Ericsson chips to go inside their Windows Phone handsets. Significant at the time since WP was pretty much Qualcomm only. This was confirmed in various places by ST Ericsson. Today, MarketWatch posts that Nokia has selected ST-Ericsson as a future supplier for Nokia Windows [...]

Nokia coming back to USA on Multiple Carriers (+7m video with Stephen Elop) [#RIMacquisition?]

| November 2, 2011 | 35 Replies

  Carrier partnerships should never be taken lightly in North America, especially in the US. Essentially, they can make or break you. Going against them, say, by wanting to deliver the full set of features of your product but having to rely on selling them, unsubsidised, unlocked at limited retail stores – well let’s say [...]

MeeGo gets Special “Opera Labs” edition of browser (Update: False Alarm?)

This just cam up on my twitter feed, straight from Opera Mobile. The company behind the favourite browser for Nokia owners has officially released Opera for the N9. This is great news for many. Apparently those of us with an N9 will have a “special Opera Labs edition”. I’m not too sure what this means, [...]

Nokia N9, number 1 selling handset for Elisa, Finland

| November 2, 2011 | 40 Replies

Yes, yes, yes, whilst this is Finland, home of Nokia, that is still no mean feat to be the number 1 best sold handset amongst the strong competition of handsets that has grown in Finland. Whilst the Finns love Nokia, they also are quite adept in choosing the product that might suit them better. Such [...]

Both sharing the same beautiful design, the Nokia 603 packs Symbian Belle whilst the Nokia 710 is powered by Windows Phone Mango. This design was seen back in February, before any glimpses of any Belle or WP device at the time and was met with a lot of compliments. It’s great to see it on [...]

Here’s a gallery of the top-end Nokia Asha, the touch and type portrait QWERTY 1GHz S40 303. It was pretty nice to use, and can run some decent looking games for S40. Here’s the product page for the Nokia Asha 303: http://europe.nokia.com/find-products/devices/nokia-asha-303
