PocketNow: “You Think Nokia Uses Deceptive Advertising? Have You Heard of Apple?”

PocketNow: “You Think Nokia Uses Deceptive Advertising? Have You Heard of Apple?”

| September 11, 2012 | 72 Replies

  It was not something I wanted to revisit out of the blue, but someone named ‘Tech’ left a link to an article over at PocketNow comparing the ‘false’ advertising between Nokia and Apple. The trend seems to be, it’s OK if Apple does it. It’s not even perceived as anything done wrong. It’s a [...]

Another low-end WP8, Nokia Lumia Flame?

Another low-end WP8, Nokia Lumia Flame?

| September 11, 2012 | 15 Replies

  I thought I had already written about this but I mistook the mid Nokia Zeal for the Nokia Flame. http://mynokiablog.com/2012/09/05/nokia-zeal-wp8-zune-like-midrange-dual-core-lumia-for-early-2013/ The Nokia Lumia Flame appears to a low end phone, something TheVerge suspects to be a replacement for the Nokia Lumia 710. http://www.theverge.com/2012/9/7/3301529/nokia-flame-windows-phone-8-specs The Flame is said to have 1GHz Dual Core, 5MP camera, [...]

Nokia N8, Asha 305, 311 and Nokia Lumia 920 top 10 GSM Arena daily interest.

Nokia N8, Asha 305, 311 and Nokia Lumia 920 top 10 GSM Arena daily interest.

I don’t really follow the GSM Arena phone rankings much. I think the last time I mentioned it was because a reader said in the comments that the Asha 311 was there (at the time the only Nokia I think). The Asha 305 is there too. That’s great stuff. Asha has been receiving a lot [...]

Bluetooth File transfer confirmed for Lumia, as well as ringtone maker in more in WP7.8

Bluetooth File transfer confirmed for Lumia, as well as ringtone maker in more in WP7.8

| September 11, 2012 | 60 Replies

  First and foremost, we’re noting BT file transfers more so for the whingers that keep complaining that it’s not there and for those who are genuinely interested in it. Not ground breaking of course, but it’s there. It was much rumoured  (as something Nokia would bring to the table) but since there was no [...]

Opinion: Nokia should push getting “big name” apps on ALL platforms, not just WP

Opinion: Nokia should push getting “big name” apps on ALL platforms, not just WP

| September 11, 2012 | 60 Replies

Something that has been annoying me for a while, is the fact that Nokia has pushed getting partnerships for “big name” apps, like Draw Something, Words with Friends, Viber, CNN, Groupon etc, for WP, and forgetting about their other users. Yes, Symbian & MeeGo are dead. However, Symbian still has a larger user base, as [...]

Do you remember that post back in August 30th saying that a parcel would be sent that had something to do with the Nokia World 2012 event? http://mynokiablog.com/2012/08/30/www-nokia-comwebcast-september-5th-10am-edt2pm-gmt-are-you-ready/ Those packages were sent out and had been arriving today. I missed mine since I was at the Hospital (I’m pretty much living there now :p) but [...]

Video: #N9Hacks: GUI for Multiboot

| September 11, 2012 | 9 Replies

This is something I had been waiting for since the N9 got dual-booting abilities (and then multi-boot). It is still an early version, but the GUI is apparently easily customisable. We may see some amazing and polished dual/multi-boot solutions. I preferred having a boot image for NitDroid, let alone an actual GUI where you can [...]

Viber: Voice Calls Exclusive to Lumia Phones; Also comes to Nokia S40, Symbian

Viber: Voice Calls Exclusive to Lumia Phones; Also comes to Nokia S40, Symbian

| September 11, 2012 | 35 Replies

WPCentral have posted up that Viber has announced they will bring Voice Calling to Windows Phone, exclusive to the Lumia range. This is another prime example of Nokia improving the WP experience for Lumia users. Although, I do think that having such exclusive apps and services does indeed cause fragmentation, but let’s not discuss that. [...]

Image stabilisation. It’s a hot topic what with the Nokia Lumia 920 providing floating lens technology, which sadly does work very well but has been tainted yet again by incompetent marketing/PR peeps at Nokia. But this is not what I’m going to talk about in this post. I’ve actually been meaning to write this post [...]

You may have seen the image above over a week or so so and concluded it might have just been a fake image of a new Symbian device (or some other fake Nokia). Janne however reckons it’s possibly a new Asha phone.   I think something got lost in all the excitement over the Lumia [...]

General The Destroyer is at once again, posting a new video about the scandal where the Lumia 920 video was “faked”. Haven’t had a chance to watch it as I am at uni, but going off his other videos, you will want to watch it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXArraEidi8&feature=youtu.be   Cheers General for the tip!
