Damian Dinning coming to MWC, N8 Successor inbound?

| February 10, 2012 | 74 Replies

Yesterday (well at time of posting) Damian Dinning asked twitter who’s going to MWC. I don’t think I’m going to be able to go (Med-school timetable a bit too restrictive for such things) which is a shame since Nokia’s camera Guru, Damian Dinning is going to be there. Do you reckon he’s going to introduce [...]

I’ve been reluctant to post this as there’s nothing to go on based on the speculation of a source that revels in bringing bad Nokia news. It’s one a few of you have posted enough so I guess I’ll write about it. But seriously, what is the basis of it? Whilst anything is possible, the [...]

12MP Lumia 900 to Come to Carriers in May???

| January 16, 2012 | 42 Replies

Allow me to start off by saying I have no idea how reliable these rumors are; according to a ‘source’ the exclusivity of the 900 to At&t is only a temporary matter; in fact only 45 days (starting on March 18th). According to the source once the exclucivity period is over Nokia will release a modified 900 to all carriers packing [...]

Another day another bit of info from dsmobile, resident Nokia insider, about the Nokia N8 successor. Whilst talking about the upcoming Nokia Lumia 900 he mentions that the next ‘camera phone’ will have a curved screen. I’m liking the sound of that, particularly since oddly, Nokia has chosen to change the curved screen on the [...]

  We had a few tips on this yesterday but I didn’t have much to go on other than trusting ‘an industry insider’. That post was later updated to show that the source is someone who works at Nokia. Exactly what, we’re not sure. Could be the cleaner. Joke. Point, take with pinches of salt. [...]

  Now we had first heard that the Nokia Lumia 900 was going to have a better camera than the Nokia Lumia 800. Pretty standard since we are still to reach the levels of the N8 again. Later there were rumours that the N8 successor would come in both Symbian and Lumia WP flavours. According [...]

The PocketNow guys have apparently received a manual about the Nokia N8′s successor. Clear in the image is a large hump. That’s apparently a Nokia 803 with Symbian Belle. However, it’s not squircle like the N9 shaped case we saw before and is not in keeping with the Nokia N9′s design. If the screen is [...]
