Here are some images of what is supposedly the Nokia C7. Now hide the Nokia logo on the front and tell me this thing doesn’t look like a Samsung device. It has zero resemble to the design language of the Nokia N8, which makes sense since it’s a Cseries device and not Nseries, but there…
Germany gets the Nokia 5228: It’s a 5230 without GPS and 3G
Call me confused, but I always thought of Germany as a fairly well off country. Why are they getting a cheaper, stripped down version of the Nokia 5230 is something to ponder. Yes, the Germans have a reputation for being cheap, but damn, not this cheap. The Nokia 5228 is exactly like the 5230, but…
Nokia N97 Mini Coming to Rogers Real Soon!
We knew the Nokia N97 Mini was coming to Rogers, the only question was WHEN. Sometime in May was the first I had heard, however June or July seemed like a more reasonable guess… But if you guessed early June, it looks like you were spot-on. Rogers has sent out a product launch flyer (pictured…
Nokia Notifications Beta brings missed calls, emails, apportionments to your home screen
One of the most frustrating thing about Nokia’s portfolio of devices is the lack of consistency on lots of little things in the software experience. From icon placement, to font sizes, to ways of locking your phone so you don’t accidentally dial someone just by sitting down. One thing that’s driven me up the wall…
Nokia Shows Off N8 Photo and Video Editing Features
Not to be outdone by iMovie on the iPhone, Apple’s hottest new video editing application, Nokia has given us a little video editing demo of its own. The N8, which was pretty much laughed at when it was announced, isn’t a slouch when it comes to photo or video editing itself: you can add and…
Video (slideshow really): People in Indonesia go crazy at the Nokia C3 launch
With the GDP per capita of a person in Indonesia hovering around $2,250, are you surprised to hear that the locals queued up for the ultra cheap Nokia C3 in much the same way as Americans camped in front of Apple stores overnight for an iPhone? The C3, for those who forgot, is one of…
Ultrabrief: Video: Nokia Ovi Mail has 10 million users
Here’s a statistic that’s going to get lost in the flood of Apple news due to shortly hit: Ovi Mail, the service that Nokia builds into their mobile phones, now has 10 million activated accounts. No word as to how many of those accounts are active, and what the definition for active really is. I…
Video: It took 3 years, but Nokia finally did it [N8 demo that shows off pinch to zoom]
With the Apple iPhone turning 3 years old quite soon, and with the newest model expected to be shown off early next week at Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference, something that everyone has been wondering is when will Nokia reach parity in terms of user experience? This isn’t the opinion of myself, fellow journalists, and mobile…
Screenshot: MeeGo for mobile phones, the dial a number menu
MeeGo is what happens when Intel takes Nokia out to the prom and forgets the box of condoms that were handed out earlier in the school year at health class. It’s a huge effort to bring Linux, and more importantly the Qt runtime, to millions of devices. Whether or not you think it’ll be successful…
Nokia E73: It’s the E72, but with less chrome and T-Mobile 3G [$70 w/ 2 year contract]
T-Mobile has just announced the Nokia E73. It’s pretty much the E72, which has been somewhat of a success in Europe and Asia, though many people, including myself, still hold the belief that the E71 is the better device. Anyway, history lesson aside, what does the E73 have to offer? You get S60 3rd Edition,…
