Speaker Output Test: Lumia 920 vs. Lumia 900 vs. 808 PureView

Advertisements In my opinion the N8 was one of the last Nokia phones to have a decent speaker; but of course the awkward placement on the back of the phone didn’t help. After that the Lumia 800 has a pitiful excuse of a speaker, and the Lumia 900 although better still wasn’t up to par with the […]

Sprint Finally Joins the Windows Phone Train; Lists WP8 As “Coming Soon”

With Verizon’s adoption of the Lumia 820 and the HTC 8X a couple months back that left Sprint as the only one of the large 4 carriers that didn’t have a Windows Phone device on sale. Apparently that is changing soon, seeing how Sprint have put up a page titles “Learn more About Windows Phone 8″ with the simple […]

At first when I saw this picture I thought “who on earth tried photoshopping MacOS onto one of our DreamNokia designs , turns out this is one designers concept of what the iPhone 6 should look like (stress on the fact that it’s a fan made design and probably not official).

Rant: How Microsoft Are Killing Themselves (and Me) With Regional Restrictions

| January 6, 2013 | 51 Replies

Before I start allow me to make one thing absolutely clear; I HATE regional restrictions with a passion that burns hotter than the sun. I understand that in some instances it’s a must (such as Music streaming apps due to licensing issues, i.e. Nokia Music or Video streaming such as Netflix etc.), but it still gets on my nerves […]
