Advertisements 1.5 BILLION sales of S40 phones have been sold. These phones are getting more and more powerful with features that you would have expected in smartphones, blurring the lines between feature phone and its smarter buddies. Just what is the strict definition of smartphone and what would happen should S40 and whatever will become […]
Znet, popscience, laptop mag, Cnet, cultofmac, many others and now also IGN. In IGN’s best of CES 2012 award, the best smartphone category is won by….The Nokia Lumia 900. It’s quite an odd feeling getting so much unanimous praise for a Nokia device (and having continued for well over 6 months now since N9). Again, […]
The amazing people at Nokia Connects were nice enough to send me a Lumia 800 to trial out for a while, so first off a shout out them for making this possible, they have some truly wonderful people working for them. Now a bit about the extent of my relationship with OSes other than Symbian/S^3, […]
Elop had an interesting interview with PCMag. A lot of good questions asked. Some of the more interesting ones. http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2398755,00.asp Are Nokia selling the smartphone division to Microsoft? As we’ve described it before, the rumors are baseless, and some people who seem to enjoy generating rumors are running out of fresh material, so it […]
According to AllThingsDigital, MorganStanley have put together some expected sales for 2012. Interestingly they also estimate Nokia’s 2011 performance (well Q4 2011). Â Let’s glean what we can from here. Total Symbian and Windows Phone sales for 2011 for Nokia account 77M. What about MeeGo/N9? Just with Symbian and Windows Phone, that could make 19.3M […]
Here’s an interesting video with Stephen Elop and Josh Topolsky from The Verge. The usual stuff but points of interest: Nokia numbering system. When Nokia talked about it it seemed it would stay between 1-9. Josh jokes about the 1000. Elop says he doesn’t know how high it could go, i.e. there’s no limit. Nokia Lumia […]
Just about two weeks ago we heard that Marketplace has reached 50,000 apps. All About Windows Phone reports it’s now on 55,000. That’s an increase in growth of submissions again from 265/day to 328/day. With Nokia on board, developers are giving this platform a chance, and it is already the second fastest growing app store […]
Again, like before these out of stock notifications may not just be due to the handset popularity but may be due to initial stock numbers perhaps being low. Who knows. Either way, enough people have gone and bought the blue Nokia Lumia 800 at Vodafone for it to be out of stock there. This […]
Do you remember our Christmas Lumiappaday #39? In case you forgot, that was a rather nostalgic Nokia snake like Nom Nom Worm, an excellent accelerometer based worm eating game. http://mynokiablog.com/2011/12/25/lumiappaday-39-nom-nom-worm-demoed-on-the-nokia-lumia-800/ Last night, I read some news that kinda wowed me. Elbert Perez, the developer for that app (and Perez has made several others) made $61,321.59 […]
