Video: Behind the new Nokia homescreen – multiple homescreens coming soon?

Video: Behind the new Nokia homescreen – multiple homescreens coming soon?

| July 14, 2009 | Reply

Advertisements In this video, the Nokia designers explain how the homescreen, as we have seen on the Nokia N97, has come about. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C35s7ZLm1go] Initially, I wasn’t sold on the subject when I heard about the homescreen – I thought it was like Nokia’s “active standby” just slightly beefed up. Having used it for over a […]

Rumours: Ultimate Nokia Cameraphone, 12MP and Optical zoom coming early 2010

| July 1, 2009 | Reply

According to PhoneReport.info, 2010 will be the year Nokia will “surprise the market with its offerings”. It bloody better be! 🙂 First on the device list maybe wielding a 12mp with optical zoom. Whilst 12MP is not anything new, with the Satio from Sony Ericsson coming in October and from Samsung, the M8920 and Pixon […]

Things are looking good for the N97 with the new firmware update to V11.0.021

Things are looking good for the N97 with the new firmware update to V11.0.021

In a few hours, it will be 1st July 09, the release of the new N97 firmware: V11.0.021. Teo, from Symbian-Freak, has found the changelog via serie-n.it, which at first glance for me looks great, as I’ve unfortunately encountered the bugs that required such fixes: USB detection error fix PC does not detect N97 or […]

Stephen Fry's Review of the Nokia N97 (and also iPhone 3G S) and awfully long rant.

As a long time Nokia fan, it is disheartening to hear such crushing words about what’s meant to be Nokia’s best ever phone to date. What’s worse is that we all knew what Nokia needed to do, yet for purposes beyond our comprehension (perhaps to cut costs in an attempt to be mass market friendly), […]

Ah, another video, with N-quatre-vingt-dix-sept, demonstrated by Julien Fourgeaud. We’ve seen Julien demo the N97 plenty of times, and he knows the N97 more or less back to front, specifically the key strengths of this device. Make sure you click the “HD” button to get some appreciation for the detail on the N97 screen. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gc1u3BtNEK4] […]

Here’s the Nokia N97 being demoed at the developer summit. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FoC0vzj08k] Here it is again, if you so wish, at another angle. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WL3UmnIbPJM] There’s nothing to be gained from either video except the noticing the gradual growth of the N97’s UI. I still hate the wasteful menu of S60 5th edition – at least for […]

Addressing, coincidentally, yesterday’s “what would you change about the Nokia 5800?” Steve Litchfield from AAS points out 10 things Nokia realistically could have changed about 5800 XpressMusic before release (Instead of the “I would change it by giving it 20 MP with 5000X zoom!!). Fortunately – if one could look at it that way, Steve […]

What would you change about the Nokia 5800?

Engadget has asked it’s readers, “How would you change Nokia’s 5800 XpressMusic?”.  I think for the price, the 5800 packs a lot of punches you’d expect from the high-end and expensive Nseries. But as in everything, there’s always ample room for improvement. It seems though that a lot of the features that people are wishing […]

Over at Nokia Conversations, where they’re celebrating their first anniversary today, the question they’re asking is: “What makes a Flagship handset?“ Here are my thoughts on the subject: A flagship phone is something that encapsulates the achievements of that manufacturer, i.e. having the best of EVERY great feature you have once included in previous handsets, […]
