Earlier today Nokia published their Quarterly earnings for Q4 2012; announcing that they’re back in black with $585 Million dollars in profit. Q42012 is the first time in almost 2 years (7 Quarters exactly) that Nokia has netted a profit; Nokia’s choice to not pay dividend to investors is a strategy to assure people they know they still have [...]
The Telegraph have posted a really cool article/slideshow that showcases the top 20 most selling mobiles on the planet; since the beginning of time. Of course Nokia have quite the presence on the list taking up 13 of the top 20 spots (including spots 1-6). Topping the list is the 1110 which over the past 7 years [...]
One of my greatest issues with the N9/Lumia 800/Lumia 900 was the silver plating on the back that surrounded the camera lens. The fact was that no matter how careful you were with the phone it would end up being scratched in every possible spot; and it honestly hurt to look at. However with the [...]
Sure the latest rage in the smartphone world is wireless charging, but what about those of us without the Qi awesomeness, or maybe we don’t have a wireless charger…. yet. Well fear not, for I present to you what is possibly the coolest way to charge your phone without ditching the wires…The Bobine! The bobine does [...]
Now that I’m on vacation I’m catching up on my to watch list, the first of which begins with “Law Abiding Citizen” (I give it a 7/10- good story line but very difficult to believe). Although I must bump that score up a point or two due to the sheer amount of Nokia’s in that [...]
Swype was definitely my favorite way to enter text in Symbian (until it was never updated to show your text box while typing); but for those faithful to swype will be glad to hear that the beta version at the Nokia beta labs has just received an update. Hey there Symbian users. We’ve made a small patch for those of you [...]
Just a quick heads-up; today Finland celebrates its 95th independence day! happy birthday Finland! Bringer of Nokia and Angry birds! Stay awesome, without you my favorite company wouldn’t exist Speaking of which Nokia’s stock has doubled its value over the past month finally moving from the $2 mark reaching almost $4 today; while apple has lost $35 [...]
This one has been a long time coming, but Nokia have finally revamped Nokia.com, giving it a fresh new look that beats the old stale “select Region page”. The new site is colorful, vibrant and attractive, showing off the latest headlines and releases; and somehow manages to be professional yet informal at the same time; [...]
Here’s a look at the guts of the Nokia Lumia 920. You can even see the big old 2000mAh battery. We also got a different set of disassembly 920 photos from Aikon171 which can be found here Source: FCC
This post was inspired by the dropping of Symbian & Meego support for Nokia City Lens and is mostly a collection of my thoughts regarding the Beta services provided by Nokia, it might seem like random ramblings, but I promise you there’s a point to all this buried somewhere (if you look deep enough). Nokia Beta [...]
WMPU reports that Windows Phone is making some progress and has displaced RIM’s BlackBerry in USA, Italy, Germany, Australia and Brazil. Brazil has as much as 14.9% of all current sales, with pretty majority if not all of those being Nokia Lumia. In US, WP is down 0.1% from this time last year, but what [...]
Hello All, In this day and age of superphones, HD screens, Quad and Dual-Core CPUs, millions of polygons per second GPUs, unibody construction, 5+inch screens and 41MP monster cameras and nearly a million apps across OSes, I almost wonder how did we make it in the “dark ages” of mobile technology a few years ago. While [...]
The following bit of information comes from NokiaLino.it- An Italian blogger who recently attended a Lumia 610/900 launch event in Italy; he got some very interesting pieces of information regarding practically all the current Handsets that were announced last February. The most interesting of which is the fact that “Nokia Carla” Which was supposed to be the successor to Nokia Belle is no [...]
Hey Guys, Today I received my trail 302 from the Nokia Connects guys (shout out!), basically the whole reason I have one is because me @psychomania666, @alsiladka and a couple other guys on twitter are doing this challenge thing were the only phone we’re going to sue all week is this piece of S40 goodness, the Asha 302. So here’s an [...]
I’m not exactly sure how many of you are racing enthusiasts, even if you aren’t I suggest you try this app (Yes I’m recommending the app before even starting the review, here’s why). Personally I consider myself an above-average car fan, nothing over the top but just enough to get excited when I see a rare car [...]
To coincide with this tip from Glenn about eBuddy, here’s a video we got during Nokia World. Unfortunately, it seems to have cut off just before we got to see it working on other Nokia devices: eBuddy XMS coming to MeeGo, its not WhatsApp, but its good enough allowing web SMS’s to be sent. http://www.intomobile.com/2011/10/29/ebuddy-becomes-nokias-preferred-messaging-partner/ [...]
Another Nokia App from Beta Labs folks. It’s for both S40 and S60 but mainly for S40 devices. This is called Nokia Nearby, where without Ovi Maps or GPS, you can search for things nearby. Introducing Nokia Nearby, an innovative ‘Hyper-Local Search’ application where you can look for information about local places & listings within your vicinity. [...]
With all the news about the N9 and leaked Belle prototype units the news about an improved C5-00 has passed us by a bit. Nokia didn’t really make a whole load of fuss about it either since it was quitly launched through their press channel. However the way this new and improved C5 came into [...]
