Hello All, In this day and age of superphones, HD screens, Quad and Dual-Core CPUs, millions of polygons per second GPUs, unibody construction, 5+inch screens and 41MP monster cameras and nearly a million apps across OSes, I almost wonder how did we make it in the “dark ages” of mobile technology a few years ago. While [...]
There are various drawing type games available in Marketplace at the moment. The first I wanted to share is possible the most straight forward out of all of them, Let’s Draw. You either draw a word from a set of categories (that random people will guess) or you will be given at random a [...]
A couple months back we posted about a homebrew hack that enables “widgets” on your WP’s lockscreen; that same hack has recently been upgraded to v 2 bringing some more functionality and clean-ups; unfortunately this sort of hack still requires a fully hacked (interop unlocked) WP; which is pretty hard to come by, as far as I know [...]
It’s no secret that the official Twitter app for WP kinda sucked, now that’s not strictly a bad thing since it has lead to a HUGE number of great alternatives to pick up the slack (they’re aren’t as many FB WP apps since the FB app si really good, also look at Gravity for Symbian the reason [...]
Here is Sven Fielitz, a football freestyler that Nokia got to do his thing whilst playing around with a Nokia Lumia 900. Yeah I don’t get it either. Nokia challenged freestyle footballer Sven Fielitz to try out the Lumia 900http://nokia.ly/MFH9o5 in and around the streets of London. By doing what he loves most Sven was able [...]
Not sure what this is about, but it got uploaded to Nokia Finland. Club Lumian vieraana lauantaina 26.5. vieraili klubimusiikin kansainvälinen supertähti Diplo. Diplo kertaa oheisella videolla kuulumisiaan sekä tunnelmia Nokia Factorysta. Illan muita vieraita olivat kotimaiset Top Billin ja Clap Dance by nokiasuomi

Remember those screenshots of Belle FP2? http://mynokiablog.com/2012/06/07/screenshots-nokia-belle-fp2/ This is supposedly a video leaked on a Remote Device Access. I think Accenture is doing a great job on prettifying up Symbian, cleaning it up here and there and making it more streamlined and consistent. What do you reckon? by jorgepiunch Thanks for the tip, Han!
GSM Arena have published their battery tests for the Nokia 808 PureView. It scores quite well, 3G talk time, web browsing and video playback. This is helped both by having Symbian, a relatively less power hungry processor and less pixels to process on screen. Video playback is super high at 9h and 53 minutes! http://blog.gsmarena.com/nokia-808-pureview-takes-part-in-our-battery-triathlon/ [...]
BlackBerry makers RIM wanted to go it alone with QNX and BB10. However, today we hear that they’ve met yet another delay and are pushing back BB10 for ‘Early’ 2013 (Remember what ‘early 2011′ was for PR2?. Yikes. Well, that’s better for WP8 for two reasons. It’s already hard enough with the current competitors [...]
Here is an example where the ‘lossless’ digital zoom comes into great use with the Nokia 808 PureView. Like with the N8, when taking close up video, you don’t have to physically get closer. Just use that zoom in video. No worries about loss in detail. Compare post production zoom and zoom in video with [...]
I got tipped this nearly two weeks ago now but I didn’t want to post it because we’re not condoning this type of activity. @Jenjeman tweeted me a similar video today of someone else giving this a go. I thought it might be worth sharing at least to show the quality of both video [...]
Francesco from NokioTeca has tweeted me to let me know his 65minute video review is up. I’ve had a quick glance of the video and it is very in depth. They explore things such as USB OTG, HDMI ouptut, the browser, video, NFC etc. I don’t have enough time at the moment to write up [...]
As always, take these with pinches of salt. So Nokia Philippines tweeted that the N9 will get PR 1.3 soon. We knew it was coming, with rumours suggesting end of May. Its now July (almost) and the only info we have had, that it still is in the works despite all the job cuts, was [...]
Mikey Bee shared this ‘quirky’ hands on of a batman Nokia Lumia 900 hands on. Quirky huh? Well it turns out it’s a hands on from, Batman. LOL. He’s going about his daily normal every day tasks, playing with the new Batman app http://mynokiablog.com/2012/06/05/lumiappaday-203-the-dark-knight-rises-demoed-on-the-nokia-lumia-800/ …checking out DVDs haha (DC)…chatting on Whatsapp…hahaha by NokNokTV Cheers Mikey [...]
According to the Windows Phone blog, more than 180 countries will have access to WP marketplace at launch. Finally! WP shot itself in the foot with the limited availability of marketplace (and language support). It currently stands at 63 and was even less than that when the first Lumias were launched. Nokia may have helped [...]
Flickr have put out a post on their official blog about ways in which they’re improving the Mapping experience associated with their site. First, we’ve partnered with Nokia to bring you their map style and satellite images. Whether you’re geotagging one of your photos, discovering places, or simply want to see where other people’s amazing [...]
Hello MNB Readers! Our friend Clinton Jeff (CJ) over at Unleash The Phones has posted his excellent Nokia 808 PureView review aptly titled “Ye Giant Nokia 808 Pureview Review”. He covers the software and hardware ins and outs of the 808 PureView, a host of UI screenshots and provides picture and video samples from the groundbreaking, make you [...]
Here’s a look at the Flickr App for your Lumia. I’ve only been using Flickr recently and so I’ve only just been using the app (though it was on my 800 pretty much since I’ve had it). It’s quite well made and works pretty decently over 3G connection (though snappier on WiFi). BTW we have [...]
New on Navifirm are devices whose codes are RM-839/840/841. These might be symbian devices. The core platform is BB5 for the RM-840/841 and it’s saying unknown for RM-839. We may get to see these devices announced at the summer Nokia event, Nokia Connection. Regards: Prashant.
Joni has been most kind again and sent us some more snippets from key Nokia personnel recently interviewed. This first part is from the new Chairman at Nokia, Risto Siilasmaa who says the board are fully behind the current strategy. Elop has been partly criticized too heavily. It is totally impossible to measure CEO´s success [...]
