A couple of WP Tango (The update, not the video calling app) there is going to be a couple of interesting additions: First, support for 120 languages. I’m not sure what the initial launch languages were but I just knew it was laughable, (that and how many, or few I should say, marketplace countries [...]
In this week’s episode of the BBC’s Hustle, there’s more Nokia sightings as usual. This time, with the Nokia E7 up the top there. The Nokia N8 also makes an appearance, but unfortunately, Mickey seems to take the call upside down :S. Holding the right way up first… Now he’s making an upside down phone [...]
Dictionary is must have application for any Lumia phone, considering that Windows phones don’t come with a stock dictionary app as we’ve grown used to on Symbian; but worry not ‘Dictionary’ is more than an ample replacement, seeing as it comes with a great intuitive UI that’s fun and easy to use, as well as the free price-tag. The [...]
Nokia Social app has apparently been updated to v1.5 at Nokia Store and it brings more widgets. Looking for Nokia Social brought me to the ‘Social Networking Client’ which won’t let me download it as I apparently already have it on the N8.

Here’s Adam Giles from Nokia. You might remember him most from his N8 demoes last year, especially that really cool 8 minute feature where he brilliantly clarifies what the features as opposed to just reeling them off. Shame we didn’t see that video on TV. Adam was at Nokia World 2011 demoing the Nokia [...]
I heard about this video but hadn’t watched it yet. Joe was apparently T-Mobile’s most enthusiastic Windows Phone rep. We know how critical these guys are at being at the forefront of consumer sales. They’re knowledge, info and direction can lead to sales going one way or another. There’s been several reports that a [...]

Not sure if this is new, I remember Nokia already mentioning this in December, but apparently it’s something to report on. Perhaps it’s because there’s the other S^3 handsets shipping with Belle in addition to the Nokia N8? http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_now_shipping_symbian3_devices_with_belle_out_the_box-news-3732.php This is Nokia’s twitter account confirming details. Now they have made a couple of error tweets [...]
Yle reported earlier this month that Nokia was possibly looking to F-Secure founder, Risto Siilasmaa to replace Jorma Ollila as their Chairman. Yesterday they said Nokia’s board had officially nominated Siilasmaa for the position, with Dame Marjorie Scardino to stay as Vice Chairman. YLE says Olilla was going to leave in 2010 [was that an 'uh [...]
As promised, after my exams I’d get around to N9 apps Here’s one that I was playing in revision breaks. It’s an awesomely addictive game called ‘Dalton – The Awesome’. This is a simple running and jumping style game where as Dalton you must get away or kill if you can (with powerups) the zombies. [...]
Once the most popular game in the world (not sure if still is or if that’s now Angry Birds), Snake is possibly the most legendary mobile game in the world. Last year we saw an app on iPhone that tried to replicate not just the game, but the phone itself to give that full blown [...]
Here’s an interesting video that perked me up just before my exams yesterday. It’s the Nokia Lumia Launch for Denmark and they did it with Style in Copenhagen. At the Danish National Soccer stadium, the Lumia Tiles literally came to life. THIS is what we need people to see. To be aware of the [...]
Saw this link in one of our reader’s (Mike) comment yesterday. TheVerge reported that Apple CEO, Tim Cook, acknowledged Windows Phone as a legitimate competitor and the third horse in this race. Recently we heard a few Apple fans sharing their praises for Nokia Lumia for focusing on user experience first, in both hardware design [...]
We got sent this a few days ago but I missed it due to the mountain of revision I was under (I missed a lot of the emailed tips, soz guys). My Dream Nokia #40 is by reader, FireDragon. It’s quite a classy design, no? And quite amazing since it’s from the C2-06 range [...]

The awesome Marko Ahtisaari was promoted today to Executive Vice President of Design and is now a member of the Nokia Leadership Team, reporting directly to Stephen Elop. I’m glad that Nokia are recognizing that design is a lot more integral to their phones (given a lot of the praises of their recent handsets have [...]
Hey guys, got an exam to go to right now but this is pretty big news. It’s the Nokia Q4 2011 results. Well over 1 Million lumia devices sold. Not sure I’m reading it right, but it says 884M operating profit? Argh. Update. Looking at the wrong column. 19.6M smartphones, 17% increase over last [...]
Square Off is a nice looking game with some interesting controls. You’ve got your character who has to fight off the enemy by shooting them down with bombs, shotguns and missiles. You push in the direction you want to move on the left. Simple enough perhaps. However, shooting isn’t just a press, you have to [...]
Walt Mossberg, fan of Apple products and the like posted on All Things Digital that he thinks the Lumia 710 is good value for money. That’s great news as that’s precisely the aim of that particular phone and it’s good that someone as influential as Walt and AllThingsD would agree (and something to take on [...]
