Videos: “Lumia In Action” Ads from Nokia UK

| January 16, 2013 | Reply

Advertisements Here are a bunch of promotional videos from Nokia UK, each one showing off a specific Lumia feature (City lens, Nokia Music, Cinemagraph, LiveTiles) in detail.

With Nokia’s latest strategies I get the feeling that they’re […]

| January 14, 2013 | 10 Replies

Nokia Jordan just posted this picture on their Facebook page accompanied with the caption “they’ll be here soon”….are you ready?”.

My Issues With Windows Phone 8- One Month On

| January 11, 2013 | 227 Replies

I’ve just realized that today marks exactly one month with my Lumia 920, happy anniversary.  With the time I’ve spent with my 920 I completely love it, the design is beautiful (as always), the minor build quality issues that were present in previous version have been rethought (specifically the metal plating around the camera on the back of the phone). But on a software […]
