“Newkia” Plans on Rebirthing Nokia, With Android.

| September 5, 2013 | 93 Replies

This is rather funny, yet 100% factual!  Similar to the Meego story, where once dumped by Nokia, Jolla Mobile tried (and still is) to bring it back to life through their own hardware devices. Now Newkia has risen from Singapore, under the guidance of Thomas Zilliacus, who held the position of Nokia APAC CEO for several years […]

One of his latest tweets, boasting about how cool a Windows Phone device was (the 620 I assume) came from Android.

| February 4, 2013 | 87 Replies

We’ve heard plenty of rumors about a Nokia tablet coming soon; with most mouths pointing to this month at MWC. Without beating around the bush, I DON’T think Nokia should release a tablet just yet. Not that I wouldn’t absolutely love one (heck I’m dying for one!) but looking at it from a marketshare/profit point of view I can’t see it […]

One of the cooler accessories announced alongside the Lumia 920 and 820 (in fact slightly before them at IFA) is the refreshed line of Nokia Purity Headsets. The Purity HD Wireless by Monster sheds the wires and adds bluetooth connectivity and active noise cancelling; but apparently all these cool add-ons raise the price bar as well; seeing how it’s […]
