Video: How to Recycle Nokias and get gold – filmed on Nokia Lumia 1020

Advertisements Another video from this bonkers looking lady (who previously showed us ‘how’ to make a phone case out of old CDs) on how to recycle gold.

Accessories: DIY Wireless Charging wallet case for Nokia Lumia 1020

| January 31, 2014 | 8 Replies

Unlike the 920 and 1520, the 1020 didn’t have Wireless charging built in. Now on my 920, I use a wallet case. Whilst it does add bulk, it means I only carry one thing. Wallet with cards/notes/keys/receipts can all fit in with the phone. Now, that wallet case is pretty much just a 920 snap […]

Canalys: Windows Phone’s 69% year-on-year increase in Q4 2013 made it the fastest growing platform (driven by Nokia Lumia)

Canalys reports that WP through Nokia Lumia, WP’s 69% YOY increase made it the fastest growing platform. I guess, being one of the smallest it’s easier to see such percentage increases? Though the same then should have been said for BBOS 10? WP had 32.1 million sales vs BB’s 19.8 million.   Microsoft saw a […]

50 million Windows Phone users at the end of 2013?

Extracted from data from Adduplex, there may have been as much as 50 million WP users in the world by the end of 2013. It’s a relatively big number for WP. That might be Nokia’s old smartphone numbers in a couple of quarters (and a fraction of Android/iOS) but nothing to scoff at. Definitely a […]

The Nokia Lumia 1520 arrived on my door last Friday. I kept the package hidden away until Saturday evening as I knew I’d get distracted with the 1520 all weekend if I opened it. Got to keep uni/education/studying in balance peeps :p. Anyway, so I’ve had it roughly since Sunday. About 5 days. What do […]
