Most importantly is a proper background agent, getting rid of the audio streaming in the background! Hip Hip Hooray! Also updated are the Emoji to match thos of iOS and Android (i’ve had a […]
As Ali just wrote, it appears quite subtly that OIS has been confirmed in the Nokia Lumia 1020. That was one of the things niggling in the back of many of our readers minds – what if we see PureView V1 only (large sensor, 41MP with super pixel oversampling? I’m not sure where or how […]

Just a few days ago we saw the sales launch of the Lumia 925 in Germany. There isn’t much more to say about the 925 other than that it is an improved version of the 920. A good one in my eyes, after all it addresses quite a few ‘problems’ some smartphone buyers might have […]

But how? Apparently in the way MeeGo came about, as a marriage of Moblin and Maemo, […]

This seemed to corroborate with other Nokia related events going on at the time and now there’s pretty much confirmation that something will be announced within days of […]
Nokia’s been working with whatsapp quite closely to bring all sorts of improved user experiences.

The background agent now […]
