20MP Camera Battle: Nokia Lumia 1520 vs Sony Xperia Z1 Compact

20MP Camera Battle: Nokia Lumia 1520 vs Sony Xperia Z1 Compact

| March 6, 2014 | 5 Replies

Whilst technically a “mini” version, the Z1 compact also houses a 20MP camera like the original Z1. Marc from the PureViewClub has some comparison shots with crops to see the detail. http://pureviewclub.com/2014/21806  The result is quite surprising in that the Sony doesn’t really perform that well. Cheers Alvester for the tip! Advertisements

One take swoop: Nokia Lumia 1320 – See the bigger picture

Here’s a nicely shot promo of the Nokia Lumia 1320. It looks to be done in one sweeping take, moving from one scene to another but still being part of the same shot. The topic is “seeing the bigger picture” and features the 6″ screen rather prominently.  It’s nice to see the focus is just […]

Nokia: How to charge your phone by dancing. Note feature error – taking glove off to use the Lumia.

  This lady is getting a reputation for being a little ‘crazy’ at Nokia. The weird and wacky of the day is charging the phone by dancing. Or kinetic charging. Some watches have this feature. The main aim is really to charge by passive movement. We can actively use movement to charge things with devices […]

It’s often difficult to see screen comparisons from another picture or video. They’re usually best seen in person. Such was the case here when comparing the Nokia Lumia 1520 against the new Sony Xperia Z2 with what Sony calls an improved display. Credit where it’s due, it’s a beautiful and vibrant screen. Where sunlight readability […]

SkyDrive to OneDrive delivering Extra 3GB storage today for Auto-uploads

As previously stated, in the change of branding from SkyDrive to OneDrive (to due BSkyB thinking it would be confused with their products…) MS offered an extra 3GB for those who used the auto upload feature. Something I’ve been a major fan of since first going WP. Today I received my confirmation that I’ve got that […]

    Rudy Huyn tweets that he’s made yet another app, a cloud storage one during MWC. He says this will be available tonight. I’m not quite sure specifically which cloud storage this will be for. Reddit isn’t either and is hoping it might be called 6box (drop box) or even work with all the […]

Cortana trending on Facebook?

First things first, I feel so out of the loop. Facebook trends? I knew facebook had been trying the whole twitter popularised #hashtag, but I didn’t know they had a similar ‘trending’ thing that shows the popular topics in discussion. Anyway, Cortana seems to be one of the top topics, along with Scarlett Johansson’s pregnancy […]
