  I am not quite sure if this is as the description claims but it says this is recorded by the Nokia 808 PureView. The sound quality is definitely very good – it’s probably a very difficult clip to get that stereo sound since you don’t have subjects moving from left to right or different [...]

I just posted about the Nokia Lumia 610 being priced at £15: http://wp.me/p1gHxJ-9uc. Very good entry price and already it is possible to find cheaper. However, if you’re interested in the 610, why not go for 800 instead. Currently it can be bought for as little as £15.50 per month and you get a free Monster [...]

Since Nokia refuses to release any exact number of how many 900s have been sold (cross fingers and think multi-millions?) we sort of end up reading a bit more into every “out of stock” notification; the latest item to go out of stock is the Cyan Bumper for the Lumia 900 (of course the Cyan 900 [...]
