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 [...]
Occasionally we need to take a break from Nokia dedicated news and take a look at what else is happening in the mobile world; after all ignoring the competition is partially what got Nokia in the hole it’s been in for the past few years. So hears a mini-roundup of related news to both Nokia [...]
With all the rumors and speculations about Windows Phone 8; most importantly what phone (if any) will be upgradeable the internet has become a mess of contradicting articles and quotes each claiming something different, and usually each one is the complete opposite of the previous; so here’s in hopes of getting some things cleared up [...]
If any of you guys are following me on twitter (doubt it ) you’l know that I’ve had some serious issues with the micro-USB port on my N8; where cables hardly connect except after hours of fiddling and then I must stay deathly still cause the slightest movement disconnects the cable (for the record the USB port wasn’t great [...]
GSMarenas Battery test for the Lumia 800 are in; and the results are bittersweet. Just to keep things in perspective for everyone; the main comparison should be between the Lumia 800 and the N9, considering that they both have the same battery, same type of screen and almost the same screen size (Lumia 800 is .2 inches smaller screen-wise). [...]
In December, Electronics Giant, Samsung was said to have been trying to oust Nokia from their top spot as number 1 manufacturer of phones world wide. The time frame for this? 3 years. Note, that Nokia has been number 1 since 1998 (12 years), toppling then Supreme Motorola (which would have all but disappeared were [...]
So, this morning I went to the T-Mobile store in Manchester and got myself a Samsung Omnia 7 which runs Windows Phone 7. I got it because Nokia are of course, have shifted focus to Windows Phone so, like Andre, have picked one of these up so we can learn about the subject we’ll be [...]
So a lot has been made about this ‘alliance” (I hate that word) a lot of negative comments mainly from the Nokia enthusiasts side and also employees and developers that work on Symbian. Nokia and Microsoft make this sound like the best thing since sliced bread but the markets don’t seem to agree, because of [...]
There have been a ton of negative comments from Nokia fanatics, me, enthusiasts or some general tech writers on the news and rumours that Nokia might announce a WIndows Phone 7 powered device to conquer the decreasing market share that Nokia is experiencing right now. So thought I might post up some advantages to Nokia [...]
As mentioned before in the press release Jay posted, and has been rumored in the blogosphere for quite a while, it seems that Nokia and the Symbian board have taken a decisive step towards improving the Symbian OS, speeding up time to market, improving developer and OEM relations and at the same time cut [...]
iPhone owners look away now, here is an interesting look at the Nokia N8 being compared to the Samsung Omnia HD doing PROPER multitasking. I have got to admit the Samsung’s multitasking is pretty funky thanks to KaiwanGailan for the heads up !!! via Parttimereviewer on youtube
Tomi Ahonen is a Mobile consultant for handset manufacturers and is a really respected man with a good amount of knowledge and of course I follow him on Twitter. Today he made some very interesting comments on Nokia and their success in making camera phones. Its no secret that Nokia are in a sort of trouble [...]
Eldar Murtazin Nokia’s favorite person on this planet right now is as you might now in trouble with Nokia about the supposed Nokia N8 prototype, which according to Nokia is in Eldar’s possession of course he strongly denide the claim from Nokia and after getting plenty of attention form the Tech media and bad media [...]

After Meego’s spectacular world official unveiling (sarcasm ) the team also unveiled a short video of a disguised device (I think) running the OS Meego looks very promising and I like all the colourful background, I hate the icons too much Samsung touch wizzy thing going on but I am hopeful they will sort that [...]
The BBC recently aired a couple of technology focused documentaries, one called Life and Death of a Mobile Phone and the other Upgrade Me. They’re available to watch/download on the BBC iPlayer (Sorry, UK residents only – er, unless you know how…) I always find it interesting to see technology related programmes designed for the [...]
In Episode 86, as shot on the Nokia N86, Mr Litchfield focuses his attention on his long awaited Samsung Omnia HD…I mean i8910. But before that News: Surge in the States, HTC and 3.5mm jack, Ovi Files now free, Symbian Horizon, Nokia’s Q2 09 results QWERTY Keyboard Rant Discovering Real/Usable Digital Zoom on the N86 [...]
720p on the Samsung i8910 looks stunning, more detail,crisper, at times more natural looking colours. However, the sound is absolutely dreadful, resembling the tinny audio quality of 2004 handsets – this may still be fixed though. The N97′s video also performs very well, some slight over saturation in parts – it also just doesn’t look [...]
I love the direction Samsung is going with their products. In terms of hardware - it’s good, you keep it, it it’s bad leave it out. Simple. As a Nokia fan, you get to watch Nokia making a good product – then producing a “successor” which leaves something you thought would and should have become [...]
The guys at Phone-Arena have been a final version of one of the HOTTEST phones of 2009, the Samsung i8910 (Omnia HD). It’s our beloved Symbian S60, synonymous with Nokia, packaged in excellent Samsung hardware, with a glorious 3.7″ AMOLED capacitive touch screen, 8MP camera, hd video recording at 720p and S60 5th Edition. With [...]
Nokia N97 vs Samsung Omnia HD vs Sony Ericsson Idou I was all set on the N97 until a three way ruckus broke out with the Omnia HD and Idou both diving in to join the Super-Mobile-Convergence-Device war. Samsung and Sony Ericsson have extremely strong contenders, with: The Omnia HD packing in a most gorgeous [...]
