Nokia Number 2

  As feared/suspected, Nokia is now second to Samsung as global handset sales leader for Q1 2012. http://mynokiablog.com/2012/04/12/has-samsung-overtaken-nokia-in-handset-sales/ Samsung sold 93.5M vs 82.7M for Nokia. That’s still shy of Nokia’s 123.7M of Q4 2010 though both Samsung and Apple have overtaken Nokia’s records for smartphone sales in one quarter.  http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_q1_results_are_out_takes_top_spot_from_nokia-news-4171.php Samsung had always targeted Nokia’s […]

Lumiappaday #164: Bonnie’s Brunch demoed on the Nokia Lumia 800

This looks like something straight out of the Nintendo DS to me with that anime cartoony child like theme to it, and I thought it would just be a game for kids but when you get into it, it’s quite challenging/fun. The premise is to match the order very quickly (and correctly) for Bonnie’s customers. […]

Nokia KSA Lets Slip- Lumia Windows 8 Device in Oct.

I love a good “leak” especially when it comes directly from Nokia’s Saudi Arabia account- who more or less confirmed that an Arabic Lumia running Windows 8 will be available in October.  It’s worth noting that the original tweet inquiry was asking about when the Lumia 900 would be available; while the reply removed the specific model- which […]

Reader Generated: Nokia N9 overclocking at near 1.4Ghz :)!!! – part 1

lmiked shared these screenshots with us detailing experiences with overclocking the N9. It’s in two parts as this was mailed directly from the N9 and apparently there was a 5MB limit.  1350MHz seems to be the sweet spot, stable and fast. Anything above might cause problems. Note, overclock at your own risk. It is not […]

  Gorgeous set of pictures over at the Nokia Flickr Page. http://www.flickr.com/photos/nokiaofficial/ GSM Arena dubs them as ‘stunning’ calling PureView ‘really impressive’ http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_releases_some_new_808_pureview_samples_photos-news-4165.php They love the shallow depth of field that they say is normally difficult to get on a smartphone. The sharpness on some full sized photos might not be as impressive as the […]
