Video: Nokia Belle Update – same phone, new experience (sorry, no laser guns :p)

| February 7, 2012 | 33 Replies

Here’s a great video from Nokia to tell their users about the Nokia Belle update. With the same phone you get a totally new experience with Belle. I have it, and I totally agree. Gone are most of the annoyances from S^3/Anna, for the most part, it’s really great to use.

I’ll give mine a day or two to settle in to give a full verdict.

Congrats to the team who made this video I like the bold, confident attitude coming across in the video. Clear, engaging, funny and memorable. Great job!

Cheers AmmAR for the tip!

    @Jay don’t forget to set “Touch screen vibration: Level 1″ , it offer a good UX in Nokia N8 Symbian Belle ;)

    Nokia support Symbian indefinitely! Haha come on. You guys are made for each other!

  7. Heron says:

    If one can find an used N8 for cheap. This is looking increasingly attractive with the Belle update, apps notwithstanding.

    It looks pretty cool, but I have a question.

    How do I put a calendar widget with the next 3 or more meetings/reminders?

    It seems to be missing from my update.

    Happy birthday to me! Awesome, here in North America, and update is available to me on my birthday.

    I have an N-8, and so far it looks good. Just spent a few minutes with it so far.

    Anyone else’s battery indicator going haywire? Sometimes full, sometimes half-full.

  18. smithChart says:

    I’m definitely excited to get this! This just confirms how I wished Nokia had kept pushing for the development of symbian and meego…

    But who knows, maybe this update was released on time cause Nokia isn’t programming the software. And, they definitely handled the release in a much better fashion(aka, getting it out to as many users as possible).

    have a real play it has its own
    embedded video player which cannot

    off position, the answer and turn off
    keypad are on ??????

    Just updated to Belle, I have a 701 so I’m used to it but I’m loving it on my N8, feels like a brand new phone had to re-install swype not a fan of the stock portrait QWERTY. Any way kudos to NOKIA and Accenture for such a great job on Belle. Hope they don’t kill Symbian off until after Donna. If the future Symbian updates run smoother and more efficient then this, then the future for Symbian is looking good.

    • flop says:

      GREAT!!
      Anyway tell me the FREE RAM ON BOOT IN 701 and THE STABLE VALUE after running the phone for few minutes?

      DO you able to play NFS smoothly as it usually hangs in N8?

      Do 1ghz CPU and 128MB GPU really make a significant change in general swiping from heavy app and games as compare to N8?
      How about the handling of Opera mobile in 701? How much RAM does it take?

      REGARDS
