On Thursday it was reported that no less than Nokia CEO Stephen Elop told a big Chinese Social Network that the first Windows Phone flavored Nokia phones would ship in the fourth quarter with launches rolling out from country to country. The executive didn’t give out a hint as to which country would be the first to receive the handsets although the company might have given us a clue. It seems that
“Touchscreens have been with us for quite some time now and we have seen all kinds of them: resistive touch, capacitive, multi-touch, etc. However, Nokia’s research lab in Tampere, Finland has developed a rather unique kind of touchscreen: a touchscreen made of ice. Well, to be honest, it’s not really a touchscreen for everyday use, nor is it very portable, as the rig includes a projector and some
Email used to be a part of the corporate world and now it’s increasingly becoming an essential means of communication for the lot of us – not just the white-collar kind. So if you can’t fight it, the best thing to do is get yourself properly equipped – and the Nokia E5 is the right tool for the job. It’s no old timer either, it knows how to deal with those newfangled social networks as well. The
Yesterday’s high-end is the new midrange we like to say. The Nokia C6 has almost exactly the same features as the Nokia N97 mini but hangs a big Sale sign. Time to shop for high-end features off high street. The C-series are trying to distill the Nokia knowledge and experience into a lineup of simple and affordable phones. There’s a bit of everything there: from cheap entry-level handsets to smartphones
According to the Symbian numbering scheme we’re at Symbian^1 now, but we won’t see ^2 at all – Nokia is jumping straight to Symbian^3. Maemo 6 is coming later this year with at least one new device running it. Symbian S60 5th edition or Symbian^1 is the OS powering the touch phones from Nokia – from the Nokia N97 flagship to the entry level Nokia 5230. The next version – Symbian^2 – however has been
Update – the Nokia X6 has now been updated to include a 16GB version, which strips the Comes with Music offering and is available at a lower price too. The persistence of manufacturers when it comes to touchscreen mobile phones has to be applauded. It might be that only a few – notably HTC, Apple and Palm – have really cracked the marriage of hardware and software – but that hasn’t stopped everyone
When touchscreen handsets start to take over the lower segments of the market you know the rules of the game have changed. The Nokia 5230 is a smartphone but it doesn’t mind rubbing shoulders with the common run of handsets. So, it’s free to explore grounds where few smartphones have ever gone, let alone full touchscreen gadgets. Nokia 5230 official photos The land of affordability was the
Nokia E72 is one of those handsets everybody is talking about long before their release. There may be nothing much to talk about – after all everyone knows what to expect of the Eseries and they have never let us down. But still, savoring the next batch of Eseries steel is always a pleasure. The Finns keep feeding business ammo to the market and there’s nothing out of the usual at first sight. We
It’s crystal clear by now that the Nokia N900 has almost nothing to do with the traditional Nseries values. The full QWERTY side-slider may look similar to its double-digit mates but the Maemo experience is completely different. However, the N900 is not there for the mere sake of difference – a tablet and a phone, it tries to get the best of both worlds. These are worlds though where Nokia feels at
The Nokia army of touchscreen smartphones gets larger by the hour and the Nokia N97 mini is surely one of the most interesting new recruits. The Finnish company has obviously reconsidered its priories and now focuses on optimization, rather than expansion with its flagships. The original Nokia N97 was the first sign of that as it hardly offered any ground-breaking features, instead relaying on the
N900 VS. SMARTPHONES Since the Nokia N900 has been announced, there have been a plethora of online reviews and articles about competing devices. I hear about devices such as the Nokia N97, Apple iPhone, Blackberry Storm2, HTC Touch Pro2, Palm Pre, and upcoming Verizon Droid/Motorola Sholes devices. This wasn’t unexpected at all. As far as pocketable devices are concerned, on the surface, these seem
A while back Nokia released the 6600 pair – the slide and the fold – which we fell for, big time. The seemingly more popular sibling got an update and the 6600i slide will keep on cashing in. Slightly revamped, it brings a beefier camera and a new paintjob to boot. Looks have changed just a bit and we honestly think they did it right. The consciously minimalist design of the original didn’t leave

Sometimes, a phone is nearly perfect, except for that one small thing you want to change. If you felt that way about Nokia E52, the E55 claims to have the answer. Don’t get us wrong – the E52 has killer looks and specs. And the E55… well, like we told you, it’s the same phone save for that one little thing.

Well, it seem Nokia have something even more exciting to announce at the upcoming Nokia World, so they
