We’ve had tons mail and comments from over a week old now saying there’s an update to Nokia Maps available. I’ve not posted to inform on this update as there is some conflicting reports that users’ Maps apps are breaking. Also I meant to write it up on the weekend but things were a little [...]
For those with leaked Symbian Belle on their Nokia N8′s, apparently there is a new version. The last version we posted here was 111-020-0203. This is 111.030.06.07. Taylor writes that, “Java fixed and EQ fixed” I’m a wait-for-official-update guy and unless you know what you’re doing, I would recommend waiting for the official Belle too. Otherwise, if [...]
L. O. L. After famously proclaiming that he would NOT review the Nokia N9, even he has gone back on his own word and has tweeted that he’s writing a review for it. I can’t find the exact tweet anymore but we have some quotes, replies when asking if he would review the N9: dont [...]
Whilst the N9 update PR1.1 was available OTA and later via NSU for many, some still didn’t have it – with no option yet on navifirm to manually flash. Our Michael FT tweeted over that it’s there if you want to pop PR1.1 onto your N9. Give a search engine a go if you’re not [...]
India is a huge market for Nokia, though slipping slightly in high end, Nokia have today launched part of their fightback, the Nokia Lumia 800 and 710. The times of India suggest prices of 29,000INR (about 360GBP) and 19,000INR (237GBP) for the 800 and 710 respectively. Pretty decently priced for first launched mid-high range phones. The Nokia [...]
Saw this story last night RT’d by @troughtonsmith. It’s an article with a very provocative and Nokia positive title: Nokia Lumia 800: The first device that would make me give up the iPhone http://thenextweb.com/microsoft/2011/11/13/nokia-lumia-800-the-first-device-that-would-make-me-give-up-the-iphone/ They cover many topics that we’ve been looking at here such as – what was designed first, summing up though [...]
Just a very quick heads up, there’s a countdown going on at the Nokia facebook page where apparently you might get to win a Nokia Lumia 800. https://www.facebook.com/nokia?sk=app_279021082121305 Just watch out for the tile that’s counting down (I think to 9PM GMT?). I guess instructions on how to win one will appear then. Good [...]
In October, GSM Arena posted an article mentioning the impressive video playback time of the Nokia N9 There was another recent article that detailed a full battery test for the N9, saying it does quite decently. Very close to Nokia’s 7h (very nice that a manufacturer produces as advertised battery life, eh 7h macbook air [...]
I love a good rant about product names. In particular, my favourite thing to rant about has been Nokia product names – especially since it’s something Nokia just doesn’t get. I got an opportunity to rant again about this since Engadget brought up the topic, discussing all the dreadful product names, as well as [...]
