It was something I’ve been fearing and has been reported through a lot of sources now (from IDC numbers). Nokia’s home market share is less than half what it was this time last year. What are the new competition beating phones in the Nokia portfolio? E7? X7? C7? Hello? What did we have against [...]
Some more cool goings on at Hong Kong for Nokia Lumia Launch. Here’s a giant Nokia Lumia 800 (Pink) made up of several Lumia 800s and some 710s(600). Very awesome stuff. They’ve even got lumia like Rubik cube. Hold on a second there. What’s up with the back? That’s not where the flash should be. [...]
Folks like to tinker with the possible animations on the N8. Here’s a video that Orlando (I think that might be Deep Space Bar here) posted on the N8 facebook group. https://www.facebook.com/NokiaN8 Anyway the video is below. The effects look pretty impressive though some are quite jarring. Video by jinhao1211
I don’t have the actual translation so just going on google translate which might skew some details. Apparently: “RBS estimates that Lumioita sold during the fourth quarter, a total of 850 000 to million pieces.” RBS arvioi, että Lumioita myytäisiin vuoden viimeisellä neljänneksellä yhteensä 850 000:sta miljoonaan kappaletta. Update: Thanks for the translation guys, it [...]
In what seems to be a new campaign promoting the awareness of “Apps” on Nokia smart phones, a bunch of Nokia FB pages (Mainly Nokia Mea= Jordan, Lebanon, Syria…) have been take over by Nokia App Patrol. Nokia Jordan: There have been reports of crimes against Nokia phones, with many of you failing to upgrade your [...]
Whoever said that the Lumia 800 is made of cheap plastic should get his head checked. Undoubtedly, this gorgeous beast is made of plastic but the grade of the polycarbonate used is comparable to those found in ice hockey helmets. It is no Kevlar; however neither is it a push-over. For those who have watched [...]
Since I unfortunately do not speak Mandarin nor Cantonese (Yes I looked up languages spoken in Hong Kong before posting- I can’t understand how my 5th grade teacher called me lazy.) I have no idea what on earth is going on in this Lumia 800 advertisement from what I assume is a Hong Kong carrier “Bee”. One [...]
Afraid that Big Brother is watching? Vlad Savov from The Verge reports that none of Nokia’s devices have ever used CarrierIQ. A statement from Nokia has been issued in response to allegations of the software being sold with support for Nokia devices. “Nokia is aware of inaccurate reports which state that software from CarrierIQ has [...]
Just a note – this is just a fun app, just something I liked and that my friends – who are mostly UK Uni students – also found particularly entertaining. As most Uni students will at one time get a really bad hangover, they can empathise with what this app is doing. Again, note, it’s [...]
Listen up Nokia fans in Singapore, in collaboration with Nokia Singapore, Lester Chan is giving away a pair of Nokia Purity HD Stereo Headset worth €200 (SGD$346) to 2 lucky winners. 2 is a little bit stingy, don’t you think? But anyway, for those who are vying for this good-looking headset, all you have to [...]
Something many N9 users have wanted, is MSN on their device. Well now they can! There are other tutorials out already that are quite long and involve extensive terminal work. This is by far the simplest. For starters download the MSN_N9 zip file to your pc. Connect the N9 in mass storage mode. Extract the [...]
A video from TechnoBuffalo has sparked some controversy – stirring up a lot of whiny Apple fans. There are various funny comments such as “Compare the design of the Lumia with the iPhone 4S not iPhone 4″ to which leaves me baffled as to what are the drastic design changes that would have mattered [...]
Here’s an unboxing of the Blue/Cyan Nokia Lumia 800. Pretty much every unboxing so far has been the black one. The Blue/Cyan 800 has only just recently been available on sale. You can see in the package, a case that matches the colour of the Lumia 800 included. Seems a good reaction to the [...]
If you downloaded Lumiappaday #14) Super Mario Ringtones for your Nokia Lumia, it has received an update whereby you now have shorter tones for message alerts. However you would need an unlocked device. I missed the little warning/disclaimer page that appeared and gave instructions. I think the Chevron unlock – equivalent to a jailbreak though [...]
PhoneArena have published their video and written review of the Symbian Belle packing Nokia 700. Overall they’re pretty pleased with the compact, slim design of the Nokia 700 – very easy to hold and pleasure to look at Clear black display very nice saturated colours, great contrast and very decent viewing angles. PPI of 220 [...]
This has been making the rounds on the blogs having impressed the folks from TheVerge and Engadget. A developer by the name of keyboardp has been tinkering around with voice controls on the Nokia Lumia 800 and has allowed it to control music and videos on his PC. It’s an interesting video to watch to [...]
