Lumiappdates: Nokia X Interface, PC Remote Pro and UC browser

Advertisements A couple of days ago Michael shared some info about an app that tried to mimic the Nokia X user interface. That got an update today that from what I’ve noticed just refines it a bit more. It is still slightly blurry looking on the 1080p display. It appears to have the ‘glance’ screen […]

Being busy doing something at the front of the wheel, clearly not paying attention to the road is a goal that Nokia HERE Maps reiterates as shown in the picture above. Why? It’s not to break laws, but it’s for their pursuit of Autonomous Driving. Google is famously pioneering self-driving cars. Nokia also sees that […]

Microsoft backing Qi as it joins Wireless Power Consortium

| March 11, 2014 | 30 Replies

Nokia was a staunch proponent of Qi Wireless Charging. It was built in to the new Nokia Lumia WP8 handsets, or it could be achieved via cover (or even USB connector). The point was to make charging even easier. It wasn’t that charging was difficult, no. Wireless charging however did make it super convenient to […]

| March 10, 2014 | 20 Replies

Although all the Nokia X family are Dual SIM, it’s worth pointing out. Here’s one of the first (if not the first) unboxing of the Nokia X. It seems there’s a little green tab that correlates with the green colour of the phone. Is that the case for all the packaging? The battery comes outside […]

Nokia Lumia 1520 tops benchmark for mobile gaming, one ups new Samsung Galaxy S5

| March 10, 2014 | 11 Replies

According to recent benchmarks looking at mobile gaming performance, the Nokia Lumia 1520 is at the top. That’s interesting considering that the new Samsung Galaxy S5 has a slightly higher clocked quadcore CPU (Snapdragon 801 vs 800 in the 1520) indicating that performance improvements may have come from the software efficiencies in Windows Phone vs […]

Check out this Nokia Asha promo which Nokia is targeting towards the young kids and their parents. It’s called, Love at First Swipe, taking a pun on the ‘love at first sight’ saying.

Thanks to @evleaks, now we can see the other side of the Nokia Lumia 630, we can see that the camera button is missing. Moreover, there is no flash on this all touch device. I wonder if there will be a quicker way to start the camera app? Despite Lumia inspiring Apple to introduce colour […]

Supposed Tinier keyboard for WP8.1 shows more screen?

I don’t know about you but on the larger screened Nokia Lumia 1520, I am enjoying that larger keyboard for texting. It makes me wonder how on earth I typed so efficiently on the 3.7″ 800 (though comparing to the 3.5″ N8 did help). As seen above the keyboard appears much smaller. The screenshot above […]
