Advertisements Microsoft’s just unveiled the list of features for GDR3, now known as Update 3. Now, Nokia’s additional “BSS” updates could still add more but that’s not what I’m focusing on for this post. Whilst the 1520 has been rumoured to have a 6″ display, some postulate that due to the rumoured dimensions and proportion […]

Not quite sure where these additional camera details have come from (the other specs seem to be rumour round up  – e.g. wireless charging for global), reddit doesn’t seem to question it. An interesting notion that the camera won’t be taking full 20mp shots like the 808 nor 1020 takes full 41mp due to the […]

Nokia 808 PureView Timelapse Macro: A song of Ice and Fire

Here’s a timelapse shot completely on the Nokia 808 PureView. I like the panning going on here. Movement of the “camera” as well as timelapse is always something I find interesting (you can do it artificially by moving across a large image or physically moving the camera bit by bit).     Source:  olivierpureview This […]

Here’s a series of images showing the difference the Nokia Amber update does for the Nokia Lumia 720. Note that the images here are screenshots. It certainly changes some photos that otherwise appear too dark and silhouetted. There’s a difference in the white balance. Looking a little warmer? Max zoom The last sample, the image […]

Nokia 909 mystery explained? Nokia Lumia 1020’s alter ego.

| October 12, 2013 | 19 Replies

It’s been discussed a few times here now how the Nokia Lumia 1020 is also known as the Nokia 909. That was the rumoured name for a little while and if you check out the packaging/about/wifi tethering name/sim tray etc you might see more evidence that this is the case. Michal looked into this matter […]

  Here’s another comparison between the Nokia Lumia 1020 and the Sony Xperia Z1. Both are excellent devices but in this video, the camera performance is tested. Overall the 1020 is a winner. More detail, better looking photos, better contrast, better bokeh, better video, better low light, better manual controls. But the Z1 isn’t shabby, […]
