Advertisements I just read an email from the WOM crew [the Don ;)]inviting me to a “virtual Q&A session” to discuss the latest firmware release (V11.0.021), where we see the N97 going in the future and what we’d like to see in future updates. This will take place on Thursday. I’m absolutely shattered right now […]
Russell Jefferies from MobileBurn put’s Nokia’s “flagship camera phone”, the Nokia N86, under the scrutiny of review. To find out why the N86 received a “Highly Recommended” rating, you can either check out the 6 page article and/or watch the 3 part video review: [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Niu-SLmztt8] [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJQOoPULnrg] [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NyYq2JZ5VQ4] For me, the N86 is one of, if […]
The 5530 XpressMusic is Nokia’s latest touch screen for the masses. It’s pretty much the same as the super successful 5800 except notably: +Faster Processor +Software Tweaks -Smaller Screen -No GPS [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRSUkEXMmtY] The 5530 is also the first Nokia to demonstrate kinetic scrolling within the contacts phonebook. It looks just as smooth as it is […]
Last week when I was checking out the Ovi Store, 9 of these apps were on my recommended page, with the 10th one app’s related download section. You may have seen them elsewhere before, on different download locations, but now they’re all available through Ovi (well at least versions of them anyway) – great for […]
One of Mark Guim’s readers, RobertH, may have found the best solution for calibrating the Nokia N97. We’ve previously seen the Symbian World guys’ “wrist twist”, allowing compass calibration within 3 seconds. Later, Mark found a more subtle calibration method – but that required turning auto rotate off, which I was not prepared to be […]
This video may strike you as mundanely obvious. Well, for practically all of you that may read this, it is. With Nokia not being able to get a strong foothold in the US, much to do with poor carrier support, Nokia takes a spin on things on why you should get an unlocked device.

This tutorial for movie making on the Nokia N97 comes from the Vodafone UK peeps. (Shame Nseries lost video editing function) [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXaGr7uYHlk] The N97 can capture DVD-like quality video – that’s either 4:3 VGA (640×480) or a more cinematic looking 16:9 nHD (640 x 358) true widescreen. Videos taken by the N97 are really solid […]
The Nokia N97 and the HTC Touch Pro2 are two similar looking devices with very similar array of features. I was very impressed with the spec sheet of the Touch Pro2, and back in April felt that it’s what the N97 should have been, at least in terms of being having a better QWERTY keyboard, […]
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 couple […]
