So here in London, Nokia just announced the new Lumia 925 to the world and it is an absolute beauty with sleek aluminium unibody edge with gorilla glass 2 screen which is just stunning and a polycarbonate back. We are about to have a special Q&A session with …
Today Nokia have announced the Lumia 925 and as is the norm on a new device day we get a LOT of emails from from retailers and networks about their deals and tariffs. This post will grow over the next few days as we get more and more …
Nokia have just announced the brand new Lumia 925 to the world here in London and we are going hands on with it in the next few minutes. The Lumia 925 has an impressive set of specifications for the new Nokia flagship phone and this carries on from …
We are here at the Nokia event in London ready to see the next Lumia flagship phone and have all our questions answered such as what will it look like, what will it do and when can we get one! Below is a liveblog from inside the event …
We’ll be covering every aspect of the big Nokia launch today but it looks like the handset itself has already leaked out onto the intrawebs. The @evleaks Twitter feed shows the 925, which apparently has an aluminium body. It also seems to tie in with the “Catwalk” smartphone …
With the official Nokia event not kicking off until 10am tomorrow, that does not mean we are not as busy as ever behind the scenes getting information and content put together ready to share with you all. Nokia has kindly put on an itinary for us including a …
Last night in the UK during the The Inbetweeners Movie Nokia had a quick advert. An advert showing off a nice looking upcoming device, or a tiny part of it anyway. The below image was the focus of the advert. Nokia have also published the advert on their …
Finally I can post pictures of my dinner to Instagram from my Windows Phone. Without any restrictions or limits. Today is a happy day. It did cost me £1.29 though. Itsdagram uses a loophole in the api to allow you to post to Instagram, so how long it …
If you’ve got a Windows Phone then you’ll noticed that a lot of the “big apps” are now available to download. Microsoft are going to great lengths to show that major Android or iPhone apps are available, or versions of them, on Windows Phone. But, although it shouldn’t …
For the last few weeks we’ve been dealt a confusing array of leaks and rumours surrounding the next Nokia Lumia device. This afternoon Nokia have published details of what they’re releasing in the US which might just give a huge insight into next weeks event. They have announced …
Nokia are due to announce their latest Lumia phone to the world next week in London where we will also be attending to bring you all the news as it happens. However, Vodafone have come out already and posted on their official blog that they will be stocking …
Try being involved in Microsoft or Nokia right now. First Microsoft, who received lots of attention yesterday for all the wrong reasons. The Financial Times compared Windows 8 to “New Coke”…. Microsoft is preparing to reverse course over key elements of its new Windows 8 operating system, marking …
The new Nokia 928 has possibly been the worst kept secret in town. With advertising billboards up before launch and Nokia all but confirming it’s existence, it would seem that the Finnish company have finally given up and decided to properly join in with the publicity. A video posted on …
YouTube for Windows Phone has been awful for years. It was basically just a shortcut to the mobile website. For ages people have been waiting for Microsoft to update the app, it’s one of those things that are awkward to deal with as Google own YouTube and Google …
Earlier on today I posted an article about our articles covering our favourite apps for our chosen OS. As I came up with this idea I’m going to start the whole series off. So what do I use that is worthy of recommendation, well lets have a look shall …
We all use apps on our phones, some more than others, some install huge games that take several GB of space, some install dozens of Social Network apps, some install bafflingly pointless apps like fart apps or soundboards. It really is a personal thing it’s your phone and …
A new Lumia device from Nokia called the Lumia 928 has been getting a lot of attention recently although it has not officially been announced as of yet. Nokia have all but confirmed it’s existence now over on their Nokia US website with a teaser asking people to ‘stay tuned’ for information …
The Nokia Lumia 920 is a great device, it is also the most expensive Windows Phone device and yet it has appeared at the top of the list of Windows Phone devices. So where do these facts come from? Well adduplex are a company who help Windows Phone …
Nokia Lumia 928 marketing meeting, May 2013 – “No videos, no secret photos, no leaks and, no matter what, no billboard posters until 14th May. Right, everybody got that? Good”. Oh dear, somebody was too busy playing Cut The Rope during that meeting, because a full ten days …
The excitement/fuss about Instagram for Windows Phone will just not go away. Itsdagram is a bit different to the other recent Instagram third party apps though. Itsdagram is coming soon to Windows Phone and it will allow you to do everything you’d want to do with an Instagram. …
Since the launch of Windows Phone 8, Rovio have been pretty good at releasing their avian odyssey on the platform, with Star Wars, Space and Seasons versions of the best selling game all being available. The original Angry Birds however, was missing. Until now. And to celebrate its …
The Samsung Ativ S should have been one of the greatest Windows Phone 8 devices out there. It just paled in comparison to the offerings from Nokia and HTC. It is a shame as the Ativ S has all the specs you would require in a high end Windows …
For me the Nokia Lumia 920 has sort of become a fabled device, it is one of those devices that I had basically come to terms with that I’d never get to own. I briefly had one last year and it just wasn’t long enough. This all changed …
Microsoft have released an app that on the surface seems harmless and almost helpful, but it makes me wonder about Microsoft. The app is meant to make the move to Windows Phone easier. Here is how they sell the app. Are you thinking about switching to Windows Phone …
Got a Windows Phone? Well, according to the Windows Phone Blog Microsoft are now looking for people to test the new version of the official Facebook app. It’ll be a little buggy at the moment, so they’re after people who will report back on the bugs and problems …
Another month has passed and I’ve gone and bought another Otterbox. This time it was for my HTC 8X which I have felt is increasingly becoming likely to be dropped. Only because I’ve had it for a few months now without much protection. Otterbox cases are pretty cool …
Apple fans and Samsung fans don’t half love a good argument about whose phone is better. That’s exactly the point that Microsoft have gone with for their latest Windows Phone advert. It made me chuckle, which is always a good thing. See what you think. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z19vR1GldRI
If you are an EE customer here in the UK use either the Lumia 820 or 920 you are in luck as the EE Film app has been released for download over the Marketplace. Not only are you able to watch film trailers or rent films on the …
Nokia have got something exciting to tell us. The trouble is that they don’t want to tell us yet. They have given us a date though. They’re going to keep us all waiting until the middle of next month. Spoilsports! Today press invites started landing in inboxes around …
The Nokia Lumia 520 was released a couple of weeks ago, so I rushed out and bought one so that I could review it for you lovely people (how selfless, right?). I set it up, gave it a first impressions review, then turned my Nexus 4 off. How …
I love a good QWERTY phone, although it has been a few years since I actually owned one. Nokia have posted a quick teaser image showing a shift key, a Z key and some nice yellow curved corners. Lumia fans shouldn’t get too excited though, this is likely …
Waze is quite a useful app, it is a Sat-Nav, mapping and traffic app, where just by using it you are contributing to it’s accuracy. It is one of those apps that has never made it to Windows Phone, possibly due to user numbers in the past. Israeli …
For a while now rumours have been floating around the internet about the next generation of Nokia Lumia phones. The main discussion has been surrounding the high-end. To give the flagship a more premium feel Nokia have been said to be making it from Aluminium. It is also …
Great news – another popular app is now available for Windows Phone users! From today, you can download Cut the Rope: Experiements from the Games Store (it’s under Xbox Games) for £2.29. In Cut the Rope: Experiments Om Nom teams up with a mad scientist, who creates new …
Orphaned files and folders aren’t a new phenomenon. For hundreds of many years people have been uninstalling apps only to find that the uninstaller hasn’t quite done it’s job properly. I’ve seen this bug in umpteen versions of Windows on my desktop PC, I’ve seen on every version …
Yes, Microsoft should be trying to portay everything in a positive light but this recent interview with Windows Phone Chief, Terry Myerson, seems to to have a slight distortion in the reality field. The Windows Phone OS is good yes, but the limited success so far doesn’t seem …
I use the phone on my camera a lot, capturing moments in time to share with others at a later date. With Windows Phone Camera Lenses you can do a lot more with your photos. I’ve tried lots of different lenses out some just make pictures look rubbish …
Last night Skype for Windows Phone 8 got a bit of an update. With the main fix being that any notifications for Messenger buddies are now on by default. Nothing huge but it’s pleasant to see an app on the Windows Phone platform that in my opinion is …
Optical Image Stabiliser systems are built into a number of smartphones to smooth out the video whilst filming. It means that the funny clip of your girlfriend or wife riding around in the Tesco trolley is more like F1 and less like a wobble-cam special. Nirave from UKMobileReview …
The HTC 8X is a great phone. I should know I’ve had one for the last six months and has barely left my side. The only problem with it is that it isn’t made by Nokia. UK online retailer Clove are having a clearout and they are currently …
