We were absolutely astonished and so proud to see Nokia Maps 3D’s mind blowing photorealistic 3D maps. It was unlike anything we had seen before. We begged for it to appear in mobile devices. Did it? No. Later we heard that the future was rather bleak given that Apple had gone and acquired C3 – [...]
Randomly came across this app from App Highlights (Nokia Collection). It’s TIME Mobile, a pretty decent news app, free for your Lumia. #209) TIME Mobile Price: Free Link: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-GB/apps/6e9f62b3-3a78-4378-9181-cf107753e21e Video: Developer Blurb: Reading TIME’s trusted journalism anytime, anywhere just got easier for Windows Phone users.

Seton Hall University freshmen are all getting Nokia Lumia 900s. Now before we here the whingers cry that Nokia are having to give away phones, it’s not at all a new thing for university students to be getting ‘free’ devices. Leeds Uni gave away free iPhones to Med students, according to my housemate who’s sister [...]
Janne messaged us to say that Finnish folks were getting SMS indicating that their pre-ordered Nokia 808 PureView would be ready for pick up tomorrow. This is confirmed by users on Finnish forum: http://www.matkapuhelinfoorumi.fi/f18/nokia-808-pureview-n8-n-seuraaja-41-mpx-69295/index42.html Cheers Janne for the tip!
I read this post earlier today but I waited around to see if it would be picked up elsewhere and what they’re reaction would be. The take everyone is getting is that Microsoft looked into buying Nokia but walked away. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/06/11/microsoft_nokia_merger/ via slashgear No one seems to want to reiterate the point however that Nokia wasn’t looking [...]
The Nokia Reaction, BH-907 has appeared on navifirm again. http://mynokiablog.com/2012/04/30/navifirm-leaks-nokia-reaction-bt-headset-rm-568/ This time you can see several updates and variants info. As previously suspected, BH-907 are bluetooth headsets, possibly successors to the BH-905 (i). Can any of you make anything else out of this? Cheers Prashant for the tip!
Let’s take a look at the latest ‘tests’ of the Nokia 808 PureView’s rich recording capabilities. Video recording is more than just what you see, it’s about what you hear. Rich recording captures the audio around you so truthfully, when you close your eyes, it’s like you’re there. There are more real life results [...]
In this short video we take a quick look at the lock screen. In particular the N9 like swiping of the notifications. In our other demoes, you saw that you can swipe the whole screen away. But you can also swipe directly to your notification, as shown here we went to a message or missed [...]
Check out this Nokia Asha 302 advert. In promoting the QWERTY candybar they show a fast paced life and how the Asha 302 fits with it. The way the video is shot and put together, it feels a little bit like the N9Seconds ads no? Short clips spliced together. It’s a little too fast for [...]
Windowsteca have done it again, this time bringing us a 30min video review of the Nokia Lumia 900. Like their video of the Lumia 610, it is in Italian and is accompanied with a lengthy write-up. They have also included some sample images. The general gist of if it as follows; very nice smartphone design [...]
The Nokia Lumia 900 seems to have been launched in China, right at the very end of Q2. As to what network it will be available on, I couldn’t find this info from the sources. This was launched by someone called Han Geng. Wikipedia says he is a “Chinese Mandopop singer and actor well known for his [...]
This is a video from the Nokia Support Videos youtube showing Nokia Maps 3.09 on the Nokia 700. I wish this video actually bothered to show you the walk/drive directions in action. Also I wish that all directions can be achieved in the one main Nokia Maps app and if you wanted to just specifically [...]
This is nothing really major, just a heads up on some info that some more Nokia 808 PureView firmware files are available on Navifirm. Scandinavian and Baltian can be seen in these two screenshots. Close up: Cheers Antti for the tip and screenshots!
So this debate is popping up again as to whether multicore processors are actually doing something useful for the end user. Is it making things run faster? Is it making devices run more powerful applications/games? Is it saving battery? Does the presence of multicore produce a positive difference for the end user? Without immediately [...]
