  Nokia have shared a video about 3D printing, but this time in Chocolate. Oddly, they’re just printing the Nokia Logo. I’d rather they print out a whole Nokia phone in chocolate.

Whilst this isn’t the ‘final form’ or even, the Nokia Cyan goodness of the rumoured gallery changes, I’m a lot happier with WP8.1 vanilla’s implementation than WP8. 1) When you click on the photos tile, you are shown ALL the photos instantly. No more albums and fancy background.  Just straight in to all your pictures […]

This is Nokia’s new take on images – Living Images. A little bit like cinemagraph but shorter and autoplayed. It makes it feel much more like a static image with a twist rather than an animated .gif or a sound free video. Being a picture, you get to zoom into the image. What’s even better […]

Here’s an interesting look for the home screen that Keith tweeted. If your wallpaper is just completely black, then the transparency will look like this. That’s if the tiles you have are transparent. I like the mix of the full coloured tiles. Initially I didn’t like the look of the first wallpaper I chose but […]

Here’s a quick video showing the comparison between the Nokia Lumia at the centre with Cortana, iPhone on the right with Siri and Android on the left with Google Now. Now I’m sure there’s a few things the others do that Cortana might not and vice versa, things Cortana can do that the others can’t […]
