Advertisements I just watched Episode 91 of Steve Litchfield’s “The Phones Show” where in this episode, he covers Application Stores: Apple’s App Store Nokia’s Ovi Store Google’s Android Market. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4r4t5t31EY] The Ovi Store is supposed to be Nokia’s one stop shop for Applications, Games, and other content such as ringtones, videos, wallpapers and themes. I’ve […]
Aah, the slide to unlock. A side swiping gesture made iconic by the Apple iPhone. No button combinations, holding keys or unlock switches – just a somewhat futuristic thumb-flick to the right. A mate of mine stupidly bought an iPhone (first gen) just for the slide to unlock. N97, 5800, 5530 and other S60 5th […]
Episode 87 takes a break from Steve’s news and reviews of the phone world, instead shifting the limelight to his PhonesShow viewing audience as they reveal which phone they’re using right now, and why they love it. It’s a strong Nokia showing, but then again, Steve is from All About Symbian :). [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HE_1nLyBChA] via 3lib […]
Episode 85 of the Phones Show focuses on the new iPhone 3GS, with James Burland of NokiaCreative giving us a tour of its new features. But before that, Steve also briefly takes a look at: HTC Hero – Android Smartphone which interestingly has full adobe flash New Firmware updates of recent Nokia phones, notably N97, […]
Previously, Michael Sherlock compared the browsers of the iPhone 3GS and Nokia N97. Now Michael compares other aspects of both handsets.. [Note, that although the N97 is more expensive in the US due to it being unsubsidised/unavailable on contract, outside the US, and at least in the UK, there are some really good deals that […]
This was just to test the startup time of the N97 (RM-505) on: V10.0.009, 12-05-2009 V10.0.012, 15-05-2009 From pressing the button and getting the vibrate buzz to switching to the visible homescreen it’s about 28 seconds (and that’s pretty much the same over 3 repeats, on both firmware). V 10.0.009, 12-05-2009 [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEeQtAvGdB8] V 10.0.012, 15-05-2009 […]
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), […]
Nokia N97 fans…Friday, 19th June 2009 is fast approaching; just under 24 hours in the UK until you can get your paws on Nokia’s latest and greatest. It has been a mighty long wait, 6 months after the 2nd December 08 announcement. You’ve seen the flurry of reviews recently, and may have even been lucky […]
I thought I may be swayed into getting the next gen iPhone given the rumoured specifications, but alas, the upgrades are minor and very disappointing. Apple have, inevitably, upgraded the memory to 32GB – $299 on contract. You also get a bunch of other “new” features such as: Video recording! Since 2003. It is VGA […]
