As well as Nokia France (via PhoneHouse), Rogers Canada will be having the Nokia Lumia 920 on sale today. It’s noted only black will be available AT LAUNCH. I’m not sure if this will be the same arrangement as Nokia France who mentions the other colours coming next week. Source: MobileSyrup Cheers Stylinred for the [...]

Now that the Embargo on Windows Phone 8 has been lifted blogs are free to post their reviews of the OS itself, since we don’t have any WP8 devices to share with you read what TheVerge, Engadget, Pocketnow and Slashgear have to say: PocketNow: Score: 9/10 http://pocketnow.com/2012/10/29/windows-phone-8-review While there are many new features that have [...]
Here’s Joe Belfiore explaining what’s new in Windows Phone 8, as seen in the new Nokia Lumia 820, 920, (810/822) which Ali explained here: http://mynokiablog.com/2012/10/29/microsoft-unveils-rooms-data-sense-and-kids-corner-for-wp8/ Here’s their video blurb. I’m a little bit ‘meh’ about it. See some of the most exciting new features in Windows Phone 8, including Kid’s Corner, Rooms, Live Apps, and [...]
Data sense is one of the features we’ve seen leaked in the SDK before, it brings the user the ability to track his data usage, and compresses webpages to help save on data charges and keep you from rising above your data cap (think of a mix between Nokia counters and Nokia Xpress browser. Data-sense also automatically [...]
Steve Ballmer is on stage giving the details on when Nokia’s Windows Phone will be available. Apparently, for Europe, it’s this weekend. I think I had an email saying some retailers were shipping Nokia Lumia 920 pre-orders but I wasn’t able to verify. I can’t wait to upgrade! Well, the weekend is November anyway (start [...]
So I just tuned in to the liveblog at engadget (seeing as I’m over my monthly data limit and can’t watch the video stream) and I’ve seen that Microsoft have announced partnerships to bring top tier apps to WP8. Including the super popular Temple run, Asphalt 7 (which I have on my iPad and is AMAZING), Pandora Radio, Urban spoon, Where’s my [...]
Quick heads up on the livestream (kudos incognito). It’s been going for a bit but there might still be some stuff to watch. http://a342.l12501350341.c125013.g.lm.akamaistream.net/D/342/125013/v0001/reflector:50341 Jessica Alba is on stage. No wonder she’s been rocking the super Nokia Lumia 920 (and 900) Live blog at Engadget: http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/29/windows-phone-8-event-liveblog/ Ha, and we thought Jess just happened to have [...]

The artist of the viral hit, Call Me Maybe, has a new video uploaded yesterday for her new song, “The Kiss”. Carly Rae Jepsen is her name, introduced to the world as someone being founded by Justin Bieber (thus instantly getting the support of his billions of teeny bopper Belieber fans). On that note, it’s [...]
Well I just had to stop in my tracks when I saw a new video with Marko Ahtisaari – a sort of hero person for many Nokia fans thanks to his (and his team’s) work on the amazing Nokia N9. I like Marko because he’s a visionary. I also like him because he hints [...]
In anticipation of today’s Windows Phone 8 launch, Microsoft have released the official Windows Phone connector app in the Windows 8 store.

Last week we heard about the WP8 launch event in London which Nokia Connects has invited several bloggers, many Nokia related to come down. http://mynokiablog.com/2012/10/22/nokia-connects-wp8-launch-event-on-october-29-london-nokia-lumia-920s-present/ I won’t be able to make it down there myself due to uni commitments, but we’ll sure report on whatever happens down in London, which takes place this evening at [...]
Perhaps not the most inspiring of colour choices but they might be to Verizon’s taste. On Evleaks, there’s a rendered pic of the three colour options for the Nokia Lumia 822 headed for Verizon. I’m finding the middle black colour especially off because it looks like it’s got an extra white bezel around it for [...]
Here is a 12 minute presentation of the Nokia Lumia 920 (in Russian). Even if you can’t understand Russian, you can see them running through things like the screen sensitivity tests. by iontelevision Cheers viktor von d. for the tip!
Just now as I was watching the Bears game on Fox this popped up during the commercial break. It’s the first ever commercial starring the Lumia 920 (in White, Cyan and Black); interestingly there is no actual mention of the device itself, just an ad for At&ts 4G network. Either way the 920 is looking gorgeous as always, [...]
We’ve known for a while now that Nokia Maps will power all the upcoming Windows Phone 8 devices, replacing Microsoft’s severely lacking Bing maps with what is possibly one of the best services out there. What I personally had never realized was that all of Microsoft’s mapping services are now powered by Nokia, most importantly the new Maps app in Windows [...]
What you’re looking at above is the new Windows Phone 8 lockscreen (ignore the old Windows button); previously when the SDK was leaked we found the option to set custom 3rd party app notifications on the locks screen (bottom right corner is facebook in the image above). We’ve also heard rumors of a live Bing wallpaper, [...]
Following with Nokia’s strategy of cutting costs and moving manufacturing factories to Europe and South America, the Salo factory in Finland (announced to be shut down earlier this year) has now been officially sold to a drug manufacturing company. With it ends the era of Nokia phones stamped “made in Finland”; moving on to phones [...]
