Of course HDR is kind of useful sometimes, and sometimes people have no idea what it is, but constantly have it set to on, on their [...]

In the latest poll Nokia have risen to 76% (tying with Samsung), while Apple who still hold first place slipped [...]

Another day another new product announcement. Whilst, like Jolla this is not directly Nokia, the next generation Xbox is going to continue playing a big part in the MS-Nokia ecosystem.

Whilst this is again, not a WP specific feature, it is very nice to see Microsoft backing the only meaningful WP manufacturer by pointing out some of their unique features.

One of the things that impressed me about the Lumia 720 back at MWC was the video quality, sure it only captured 720p but it was impressive, especially the front facing camera. The FFC on the 720 has the same 1.3 mp sensor/720p capable as the Lumia 920 (with the same wide angle lens). So I thought [...]

I’m not sure if the 928 actually gets shot in this video but the 920 definitely takes one for the team here as it gets voted in by readers to be the next product to get assassinated. The 928 however is mentioned and shown in the video. Clearly fake since the 920 is indestructible :p. [...]
