Hello MNB Readers! Our friend Clinton Jeff (CJ) over at Unleash The Phones has posted his excellent Nokia 808 PureView review aptly titled “Ye Giant Nokia 808 Pureview Review”. He covers the software and hardware ins and outs of the 808 PureView, a host of UI screenshots and provides picture and video samples from the groundbreaking, make you [...]
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, [...]
So… The moment of truth, what does Engadget ( = general American Public) think of the Lumia 710; well they quite like it actually! Nokia’s first stateside Windows Phone Mango handset is an all around solid performer and for the budget price, it’s a must-have. Even though it doesn’t have an Amoled Screen (no mid-range phones do) [...]
This is gonna be long if I have to type out the whole thing, so I’ll just do a summary. I think this video is quite detailed, (sometimes backtracking as I remember secondary things), so I don’t wanna waste too much time, both my own, and yours, the reader. Apparently it was too long for [...]
In the next video, I do a quick demo/review of the N9′s Camera app, Gallery, Music player and Video player. CAMERA [Note: This is not meant to represent camera quality, only the UI] Although it’s not the 12mp of the N8, I still think it’s very good. I never actually used all 12mp on my [...]
In this review, I’ll be showing you Nokia Maps, Drive Navigation, Ovi Music and the Nokia Store. MAPS Maps takes a bit of time to boot. Don’t worry, your new N9 isn’t laggy already. I think it has a very well designed interface. Like the video says, not sure yet how to add more [...]
It seems so strange that it was all the way back in January that we found out about a possible E6-00. Starting with leaked sample images, then details about a supposed all new VGA screen. We speculated about the design, until the first leaks appeared and we weren’t all too happy. But then clearer photos [...]
PhoneArena has published their 10 minute video review of the Nokia E7 Chicklet style physical QWERTY very comfortable to type on, with various language layout. One of the best keyboard experiences they’ve encountered. One of the best QWERTY keyboards we’ve tested on any handset Display almost infinite contrast with pitch black pixels. Visibility outside decent. [...]
In recent weeks we’ve been through a ton of ups and downs regarding Nokia’s decision to adopt another software platform in their smartphone strategy. In my post on Nokia’s options in the near future I outlined what I believed to have been problems and associated solutions within Nokia and their current smartphone strategy. I outlined [...]
Here’s a Nokia N8 review from a non-techie possibly unknown to you and me. Previously a N95 user, he’s moved up to the Nokia N8 and is very happy with it. Surprisingly, the only point he seems to have qualms with is the Nokia N8′s camera. The BEST camera on a phone on the market [...]
Yes, you read correctly. But it is just for residents of South Africa aged 16 and over. Other Terms and Conditions available Here at Nokia Ringaz blog. Now onto the good bits. An interesting find by Mark from The Nokia Blog sees 60/sixty Nokia N8′s heading over to South Africa to be reviewed. The top [...]
PhoneArena reviews the Nokia C7 on YouTube. Like the N8 it runs Symbian^3 so expect similar operations. The major differences though are mainly physical. C7 is a fingerprint magnet from glossy fascia, glossy edges and camera on the back Beautiful display, colours very saturated and punchy Similar viewing experience to N8 Three softkeys – we [...]
PhoneArena reviews the N8 wondering if it lives up to all the hype. Design wise, N8 feels extremely solid – good weighting behind it. Flat top and bottom edge – we were dubious at first but it really helps when picking up the handset. AMOLED colours are really vibrant and pixel density is good. In [...]
Apologies guys, this post became larger than anticipated. We have another package from WOMWorldNokia – this time the Nokia X3-02 – the newer X3 sporting TOUCH AND TYPE.
On the weekend we saw Michael Oryl’s video review of the Nokia N8. Here’s the more detailed in depth text review from MobileBurn (USA). Echoing IntoMobile’s sentiments, Michael agrees that the N8 has the best camera on any smartphone – the best camera phone ever. +ve = Best camera ever, gorgeous hardware design, good battery [...]
Michael Oryl, my old boss back in the days of MobileBurn foruming has taken the main seat in reviewing the Nokia N8 (and rightfully so – as it’s often someone else now doing the Nokia reviews) Michael seems to be unaware of the UBS-to go function, thinking the adapter was for a keyboard. Anodized metal, [...]
Here’s a review from the other side of the Pond, but a very fair and balanced one from Lisa at Mobile Tech Review (USA). They’ve slated Nokia and Symbian phones when necessary so it’s refreshing to hear about the good points coming from the new N8 and new Symbian^3. Perfect phone for travelers – PENTABAND [...]
I meant to write about this yesterday when I saw Steve Litchfield’s Nokia C3 review in the infamous Phones Show. Skip to 2:27. The review is sandwiched in between a couple of Droid pieces, the first the Moto Droid X and the second, the huge Dell Streak. The C3 is NOT a smartphone, but it’s [...]
Next up is a 2 part US video review by Smartphoneenvy of the Nokia C6, the ‘budget’ version of the Nokia N97 mini. As noted in the video unboxing: C6-00 Tech specs C6-00 INFO Forum Nokia Carphone Warehouse UK still lists the Nokia C6 as coming soon Nokia Shop has the C6 available for £289. [...]
Blog-N8.fr has put together a huge first impressions with the Nokia N8. As much of it has been documented before I’ll post up just a few main points of interest from their post. Note that it’s in French so apologies for anything lost in translation. Fits comfortably in the hand (not as wide as iPhone, [...]
