Nokia Phones

The Finnish company Nokia has announced the release of a new software update for the mobile phone Nokia 6700 classic. With this update (sw13.10 – PR3) the owners of the Nokia 6700 classic will get a chance to use a new version of navigation software and map data, as well as a number of improvements.

The main list of the improvements includes:

• Camera work: one-step auto focus and the ability to pivot to portrait and landscape modes
• Bluetooth: audio connection is more reliable and stable than in the earlier version
• Navigation: the works became much faster
• Overall stability while working with the applications

This update is available from the local sites of Nokia. The only exceptions are the mobile operators Orange and Telefonica Spain, for which the update will be available within two weeks.

It feels like Micorosoft is working over the project to bring Office Mobile to Nokia and other leading companies. This means getting serious over the mobile suite of the Microsoft Office. And fortunately the company was able to find a proper specialist to fill in the vacancy announced on the official site.

As it’s known this new feature will be fulfilling the specs of the upcoming Windows Phone 7 despite the fact that some version of it is already available for WinMo 6.5. But the modernized version of the Office suite is planned to be able to do whatever does the Microsoft Office for the typical PCs.

While the announcement of the vacancy has only Nokia announced and then come the “other leading companies”, it is most likely to include iOs, RIM and Android.

After the “release” of the problem with iPhone antenna while holding the device, Nokia release a list of rather funny photos showing how to hold the device. This includes 4 major ways- “thumb and finger”, “the cup”, “the balance” and the “four edge grip”.

Each of them has a demonstrating photo so as the users will now exactly what the manufacturer meant for each of the names. The funniest thing is that the post on the “conversations blog” is titled as “How do you hold your Nokia?”.

And then come the announcements about the fact that there are over a billion user now in the world. And the final wrap-up announces about the fact that you can hold the Nokia device the way you want to without facing signal lost , which is not true as we found out from our post about Nokia 6230.

The fans of the Nokia Bot feature we’ve got a great update for you. The thing is that now you can receive an additional application in your Bot list- Location-Aware Bot.

Contact Bot is specially designed for the homescreen, which makes it easy to access the most frequently called contacts, the same way as the Shortcut Bot was doing for the frequently used applications.

And this is not everything that is being offered. After some period you can surely use the home and work options of it. This means that the location-aware is something that can be adjusted and simply used by all of the interested users.

This new feature has long been offered by the enthusiasts but the release was being delayed for a long time and now we can  finally get it.

The fact that you can watch videos and movies on your Nokia devices is not the news, but the idea to watch them in more convenient conditions is something new. The thing is that after a long period of silence Nokia Beta Labs announced about a new application.

Earlier when watching the movies you didn’t have the chance to get to your favorite scene and had to start from the beginning and  get to some other scene with the help of the fast forward feature.  And now everything is changed with the help of the Nokia Video Cuts feature. This means that the differences between the portable mini-DVDs and the large touchscreen devices decrease to the minimal.

Check out the video and head to the official site of the Nokia Beta Labs to get the application!

We’ve got a chance to present another video demonstrating some of the coolest abilities of the most demanded gadget of Nokia- Nokia N8.

The video is brightened with the gray version of the gadget. The video allows us to evaluate the performance of a smartphone with e-mail and calendar, which is tightly integrated with the Ovi Maps service. This means that we can make some conclusions about whether this function got totally integrated into the new gadget or no. For example, it allows you to find the map location planned for a specific day of the meeting which is one of the most detailed things that this kind of features can allow themselves.

Recall that Nokia N8 is equipped with a special 12 megapixel camera with autofocus, Xenon flash, Carl Zeiss optics and multiple shooting modes which make this device ideal for video shooting.

Yesterday we presented the pics of the new Nokia device with 8 megapixel camera  and QWERTY keyboard rumored to be Nokia N9. And now  the same source is offering us a video demonstration of that exact device.

Recall, that some of the other sources call it to be Nokia N8-01. The most interesting out of the specs of the device is that it is not based on the newest OS of Intel and Nokia cooperation, but rather the typical Symbian^3.

So far the video is not deleted from the site in accordance to the official Nokia Company response, which gives us a hint that soon some official info will also get released.

In the xml-file on the official Nokia site there is information which confirms the existence of a new smartphone with the code-name Nokia C7-00. This is rumored to be the second device based on Symbian^3 OS.

The design of the gadget is similar to the latest models of the company with rather effective and visible round edges. It is equipped with an ARM brand processor, touchscreen 3.5 inch display with a resolution of 360×640 pixels-typical for Symbian devices, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, as well as support for UMTS / HSDPA networks. In addition to this the device also supplies an 8 megapixel camera for those who have plans to use this exact feature of the device.

The price of the  smartphone, of course, is still unknown. But it is doubtful whether it will be high. The release of Nokia C7-00 is expected to take place in fall.

Nokia has announced a number of sufficiently strong changes in the conditions of cooperation with the third party developers. They must once again draw the attention of the creators of software to support the Finnish company platforms.

In particular, now to distribute their applications via Ovi Store can not be done only by companies but also by the individuals. Registration application in the directory will be free, but the material “load” for the developers will have an entry fee of 50 Euros.

In addition, Nokia has published a SDK for standard Qt. The utilities, based by the latter are compatible with both Symbian, and Maemo. Theoretically, this innovation should be of interest to software developers. In addition, from now on they will be able to deploy new applications in Ovi Store.

The current state of affairs of Nokia’s support from the developers especially for the OS is unenviable. Will the announcement make any changes to attract a sufficient number of partners?

This is the first device of the Cseries which is actually being transported up to the India. This cute gadget has a 2,2 inch QVGA screen wtih a resolution of  320 X 240 pixels, while the best thing about the screen is the opportunity to display 16,7 million colors.

For its main dimensions ( 112X46X12,3mm) the weight of it is rather light- only 89 grams. The device is equipped with 5 way  Navi keys and two of the typical soft keys.

The battery life of the device is impressive. The Talk Time of the device is 12 hours for the GSM networks and 5 hours in WCDMA. The device stand by mode is 630 h and 670 respectively for the GSM and WCDMA.

The gadget is an ideal solution for those who are planning to walk along with the social networks and music with its 16GB of storage.
