Advertisements Viipottaja and Arsalan noticed than in Nokia’s 1520 tile video, in the app list, you could see both Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel as separate apps. Could they be coming with an improved version in an update? Viipottaja even mused as to whether it might be the full suite. At the moment, […]
Brad Molen from Engadget takes an in depth look at Cortana, Microsoft’s Voice Assistant for Windows Phone that seeks to be almost human. http://www.engadget.com/2014/06/04/cortana-microsoft-windows-phone/ Microsoft found that people are more likely to interact with something if it feels more human (also if it can actually do what you expect it to do). To personify something like […]
This video shows the tiles on the homescreen having a bit of fun with each other. At the start, it does indicate that these screens are simulated (remember the ruckus after Nokia left this out in their first OIS demo despite the OIS actually being awesome?). What I don’t like is that the sequence of […]
This is a walkthrough of the camera on the Nokia Lumia 630. This features Nokia Camera and the newly updated WP8.1 Camera UI. Quality wise, the 630 takes some great photos, especially for this price segment. http://bit.ly/lumia630cam PhoneBunch
Check out this video unboxing of that custom built Nokia Lumia 1020 underwater housing! This isn’t simply about putting the 1020 in a pool but diving into quite some depths that would otherwise break smartphones without a special external housing. It’s a beefy unit indeed, almost looking like a DSLR sans lens. There are mounts […]
This video is going around the different Nokia channels on Youtube. It features an old Qualcomm video but it’s attached to the Nokia XL. The intro video bit attempts to be something epic, and it does look that way. I guess that whilst a lot of smartphones use Snapdragon, it’s good to point out the […]
Steve Litchfield is back with a comparison of the Nokia Lumia 1020 and the Samsung Galaxy K Zoom video recording. The zoom on the 1020 is remarkable given it is lossless digital and not optical. Though credit on the K Zoom, that OIS does finally help a bit at the telephoto end. Steve Litchfield
This is the second update pushed out to the Dev Preview for WP8.1, v8.10.12393.890. Go to settings>update if your phone hasn’t automatically downloaded it. The only change noticed so far seems to be the boot logo. According to commenters at WPC, quiet hours is now global and not a Cortana thing (thus requiring US region […]
A scientific paper has been published which features the Nokia Lumia 1020. John P Graff and Mark Li-cheng Wu used the Nokia Lumia 1020 as a 41MP photomicroscope. They picked the 1020 due to the huge megapixel count as well as having optical image stabilisation. This kind of set up means high quality but having […]
