There are plenty of running style games at Marketplace, but my favourite was the one we demoed on the Nokia N9 first, Dalton The Awesome. This app is free (no ads) and plays the same as the N9 version. Press the screen to jump. Long press to jump longer/higher. Get hearts to improve lives and [...]
Last night I joined the UnleashThePhones team in a videocast all about the 808, we were also joined by @MsJen who is completely in love with her 808 (at one point she started kissing it); there’re alot of great points made about the 808 from all prescriptives, plus I get a chance to clarify my stance on [...]
Jo Harlow is interviewed on the BGR show and talks about Windows Phone strategy, Asha and PureView. Asha will continue to be a competitor to lowest end Android. Harlow mentions PureView all about quality – Nokia’s INTENTION is to bring that to the WP platform too but go further in solving consumer problems when taking [...]
I posted this over at MobilePhoneInnovation, so I figured I should post it here as well, since it is something a few readers may be interested in taking a look at. I’ve been doing some digging and have come across an interesting quote by somebody that was a part of getting MeeGo-Harmattan to where it [...]
Here’s a video showing “A day in London with Nokia’s location based apps”. Pinning locations to homescreen is really useful for me. Saves having to open up the app and search. You know what, it’s great to go around London on foot, travelling the underground to zip from one exciting place to another. [...]
DailyMobile reports that around 500 Nokia patents have been bought by Vringo for a sum of about $22 million, of which Nokia gets 35% of any royalties should Vringo exceed a $22m revenue. I am not even going to try and pretend I understand the significance of which patents are up for sale, but [...]
WMPU noticed some BT Certification by Bluetooth SIG for something from Nokia called an Alpha Engine subcontroller system. https://www.bluetooth.org/tpg/QLI_viewQDL.cfm?qid=19734 This states that it has BT4.0, a very optimised low energy bluetooth which will become very useful for small devices that need to transfer information over BT (e.g. small health/fitness sensors). N9 has BT4.0 right? I [...]
I’m guessing this is an advert from Nokia Pakistan given that the ad features Ali Zafar, a celebrity in Pakistan. This is a TV commercial for the Nokia 110, a very basic but oddly feature packed Nokia. by Beats24x7
I can’t find anything on Nokia Press releases at the moment but Kauppalehti.fi reports this has already taken place. Original text in Finnish. The acquisition includes 125 employees from Nokia, as well as Qt technology-related intellectual property rights, Trademarks and aforementioned Qt-business people. So Digia has now acquired the rest of Qt (the rest being that [...]
For some reason, I thought I already posted this but it seems it was another female CNet presenter dying to talk about the Nokia 808 PureView. They ask why would anyone want to spend $700 on this phone? The big seller is of course the camera. Incorrectly off the bat, we are told it can [...]
These videos were uploaded a couple of days ago but seem to have been buried in stupid unlock-nokia spam videos that youtube refuses to remove as mass advertising because they suck. Anyway, minirant over, back to the video. This is a video unboxing the nicer of the full touch S40 experiences, the Nokia Asha [...]
Another post from NokConv who reports that Nokia Suite 3.5Beta for Windows adds support for Nokia N9. http://conversations.nokia.com/2012/08/08/nokia-suite-3-5-beta-for-windows-adds-n9-support/ Nokia Suite 3.5 Beta for Windows is a useful tool that is used to perform a variety of tasks, including: Backing up your contacts to the PC Saving your text messages Transferring multimedia items, such as music, photos [...]
I’m surprised this didn’t happen much earlier, but one of my favourite Nokia developers, Offscreen has now also reached 100m downloads. I’ve been enjoying their stuff since S60 5th and I’m glad to see their content move over to Lumia too. Offscreen is based in Helsinki, started in 2005 and consists of about 20 employees. [...]
