Nokia’s first Windows Phone smartphone is certainly elegant; more of a piece of art rather than technology: a single block of polycarbonate that has been sculptured in a seamless...

Mark Guim recently sent a tweet linking to an official YouTube video from Nokia. The video is not your typical Nokia video though, this one includes Ferraris, Las Vegas’ party-scene, and Elop doing a reference to the movie “The Hangover,” (which I don’t need to remind anyone was filmed in Vegas). I don’t know about you, but I find...

The Mobile World Congress is approaching fast! Nokia has scheduled an early press conference to start off Barcelona’s Mobile World Congress. The exact date is February 27th at 8:30AM local Barcelona time. Nokia is obviously going to announce something, but we don’t have any detailed rumors like we did for CES. However, it’s not that far...

Now, this is revolutionary, and probably as good news as the Lumia 900 itself. If true, this could shake the U.S smartphone market and turn everything upside down. BGR got AT&T’s roadmap for the first couple of months of 2012. According to this roadmap, and following previously rumored dates, the Lumia 900 will be released in the U.S this coming 18th...

Nokia’s snake game is a classic. I dare to say that everyone has played this game; it was on every Nokia phone when everyone was using Nokia phones. Good times! Nokia somehow lost this game with time, and now it doesn’t come with every Nokia phone out there. However, you can now download an equally cool game called Snake ’97. The game is...

I recently found probably the most functional and best looking RSS app for the Nokia N9 on the Nokia Store. The app is called “Colorss” as in Color-RSS. The app is a rich RSS reader for the Nokia N9. The nice thing about this app is it brings some custom categories such as “Business,” or “Fashion” that show you relevant...

The Nokia Tune has been on every Nokia phone for more than 10 years. The tune is an adaptation from Francisco Tarraga’s Grand Vals, but it has now been reproduced in different styles and moods. Here’s a cool video of a very talented violinist who’s interrupted by the Nokia Tune; he then out of nowhere improvises the tune and adds his own touch...

The Play 360 vs. the Jambox: which one is a better speaker? Which one is louder? It’s not that simple, there’s plenty to say about these two bluetooth speakers. They are so different, yet they basically serve the same purpose. The main difference between the Play 360 and the Jambox is that the Jambox is not only a speaker, while the Play 360 is...

I have been patiently waiting for Microsoft to approve and certify my first Windows Phone app: ATP – Tip Calc, or Amazing Tip Calculator for long. I tried learning how to code Windows Phone apps over the winter break, and this is the result of days worth of work. I know it might not be the most impressive app ever, but I had to start with something simple....

Nokia is seeking permission from India’s Commerce Ministry to invest Rs. 250 crore* and generate 500 jobs in its India operation. Nokia is looking to restructure its business in India by heavily investing over the next three years in plants located in the SEZ (special economic zone) in Chennai, India. India’s Board of Approval has to allow Nokia to...

Microsoft’s deal with Nokia wasn’t only about smartphones and platforms, Nokia had to “contribute” its Navteq assets to the deal for Microsoft to use. This, amazingly, results in free publicity for Nokia. Stephen Elop recently revealed that Bing Maps will show the Nokia brand all over the place; everywhere from Maps on Windows Phone, even...

Instagram is a really popular app for iOS devices; it lets users share pictures modified with cool-looking filters. Instagram has 15 million users on that platform alone, and Apple’s “Best App of the Year” title. The rumors given by sources to Fast Company suggest that this much-hyped app could come to Windows Phone soon, in fact, ahead of the...

Remember the change of font tutorials I came up with for the Nokia N9? Well, there’s now a similar method to change the N9′s background to an image instead of the all-black background. You basically have to design your own background and replace it for a specific file in the N9′s file system. You can follow a set of instructions here: MF. This...

The Nokia N9 is soon going to receive the next big update, but when exactly is that? The director of MeeGo Applications at Nokia is hinting to a release on the “extra day next month.” That means, February 29th since we are on a leap year. He further reveals that update 1.3 will become available soon after, although it’s generally a small...

thanks @jjklee for the image! Mike from Mobile Fanatics recently had the opportunity to talk with the Lumia 900 product manager. He specifically asked about the possibility to enable WI-FI tethering on the Lumia 900. Tethering allows you to share your internet connection wirelessly via WI-FI to other devices; basically your Lumia 900 becomes a WI-FI router that...
