• Nokia Impresses Public with its New Flagship Windows Phone – Lumia 928

    Posted on May 13th, 2013 David Brooks No comments

    Nokia’s latest flagship smartphone, the Lumia 928, is the company’s newest and best Windows Phone 8 smartphone. This upcoming device is an update to the 920, and will be an exclusive to Verizon. We’re happy to introduce the Nokia Lumia 928 before it hits Verizon Wireless later this month. The biggest feature of the world’s most innovative smartphone is that it’s significantly thinner and lighter than the 920, and retains the same optical stabilization, screen and guts as the original. It’s also been rumored to have some stunning features better than its predecessor. Below we have rounded up some basic features of this coming phone for your reference:

     

    Display:

    The most interesting thing about the display is that both phones have 4.5″ PureMotion HD+ and ClearBlack screens with a 1280×768 resolution under a sheet of Corning Gorilla Glass. But the 920 has an LCD IPS matrix under that chemically-hardened glass, while the 928 has an AMOLED display. Nokia says videos can be recorded in full HD, and the Lumia 928 screen has added features to work well even in direct sunlight. This phone is perfect for summer because the screen is easily readable, and the touchscreen works even if your fingertips are covered up. And when it comes to video watching, you can download YouTube videos to Lumia 928 for seamless playback on this wide and crisp screen.


    Stunning design:

    This phone was built to perform, but it is also a joy to hold. It has a clean design that’s thinner and lighter than its paperweight-like predecessor, the Lumia 920. The front of the Nokia Lumia 928 is dominated by a 4.5-inch OLED display covered by Gorilla Glass that extends all the way to the edge of the phone, bringing a quality feel.


    Battery:

    Speaking of the battery, the Lumia 928 is rocking 2000mAh of power under the hood. That’s exactly the same as the Lumia 920, so hopefully the Finnish manufacturer has done some tinkering under the hood to make it draw less juice.


    Imaging is king:

    The Nokia Lumia 928 features Nokia’s powerful PureView imaging technology, including Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), which makes it easy to capture blur-free pictures and videos every time, even in low-light. Along with OIS, the Nokia Lumia 928 features a Carl Zeiss lens – and photo buffs will love that a xenon flash is on board. It has a best-in-class 8.7 megapixel camera with improved flash.


    Advanced Loudspeaker, Mics:

    The Lumia 928 includes three microphones and an “advanced’ loudspeaker capable of up to 140db, which is a volume loud enough to cause permanent hearing damage.


    Processor and Storage:

    Comparatively, the Lumia 928 has exactly the same dual-core 1.5GHz processor, exactly the same 1GB of RAM, exactly the same 32GB of internal memory, and exactly the same 7GB of cloud storage as the Lumia 920.

    Operating System:

    The Nokia Lumia 928 runs Microsoft’s Windows Phone 8 operating system, which features a start screen that can be arranged to reflect individual priorities and animated Live Tiles for real-time updates on people and things.

    Connectivity:

    Taking a page from many of Verizon’s past devices, the Lumia 928 connects to Big Red’s 4G LTE network for fast data and the carrier pledges it will be “Global Ready,” meaning users can pop in GSM SIM cards to access cellular airwaves worldwide. NFC will be onboard as well for quick Bluetooth pairing with accessories.


    Availability:

    Lumia 928 will be sold exclusively through Verizon Wireless, and will be available in black or white starting May 16th for $99.99 on-contract after a $50 mail-in rebate. New owners will be getting $25 credit for Windows Phone app purchases for a limited time as well.


    The Lumia 928 now has officially been announced, will you be picking up the latest Windows Phone devices or wait for Lumia 928’s availability at Verizon on May 16th?

  • Preview of Windows Phone 8 features before Windows Phone Developers Conference

    Posted on June 20th, 2012 David Brooks No comments

    Microsoft has just released its first tablet PC Surface days ago on the June 18th event. With the approaching of Windows Phone Developer’s Conference on Wednesday in San Francisco, what will Microsoft bring to us? Will we see the official release of Windows Phone 8? Well, even though Microsoft has been mute on the conference plan, it is for sure that the company will launch the Windows Phone 8 operating system. Riding a wave of momentum generated by the Surface tablet unveiled on Monday, Microsoft will be outlining plans for Windows Phone 8 on Wednesday as part of the company’s push to take on Apple and Google in the mobile market. Now, the concerns about Windows Phone 8 in fact should be what features of Windows Phone 8 will be introduced by Microsoft on the conference, but not whether it would be launched or not. The latest report from WPCentral’s Daniel Rubino has unveiled some exclusive information about Windows Phone 8 features, including consolidating Skype greatly, built-in Nokia maps, Windows Phone wallet, and more native codes for developers, etc. Check the following content to get the most possible features of Windows Phone 8 might include.

    Windows Phone 8

    Upgrade apps on Windows Phone 7: Not long before, some Microsoft stuff said all Windows Phone could be upgraded to Windows Phone 8 Apollo. But Microsoft cleared the rumors by claiming that the “upgrade” in fact means all apps on the existing Windows Phone 7 could be used on the new OS. It’s believed that Microsoft would give a satisfactory answer on whether other existing Windows Phones could be upgraded to Windows Phone 8 or not.

    Screen resolution: Screen resolution has been also a big concern on Windows Phone 8, as it could determine whether users could watch 720P video on Windows Phone 8 or enjoy 1080P videos on Windows Phone 8, just like the new iPad. The latest news from Daniel Rubino said that the new OS supports only 480×800, 768×1280 and 720×1280 screen resolutions.

    New UI: Will Windows Phone 8 user interface be the same as that of Windows Phone 7? Quite probably. Of course, there must be some differences.

    More native codes for developers: Just as leaked before, Daniel Rubino mentioned that the Windows Phone 8 would provide developers with more native codes, to enable developers develop more powerful and practical apps, and make it convenient for developers to transfer apps from iOS and Android to Windows Phones.

    Consolidate Skype and VOIP: It’s very possible that Microsoft would talk about how to deep consolidate Windows Phone 8 OS with Skype and third-party app VOIP.

    Combine Nokia maps: The cooperation between Microsoft and Nokia includes not only cell phones, but also background services. There’s great possibility of Windows Phone 8 OS combining Nokia Maps.

    Windows 8 core: One reason making Windows Phone 8 attractive is that it’s rumored it would adopt Windows NT core, which is the fundamental core of Windows 8.

    Apart from the above features, Daniel Rubino also predicted that Windows Phone 8 would add memory expansion function, NFC function and realize encoding on native BitLocker and security booting (business users), etc.

    All anticipations are really wonderful, but we still need to wait for the official release of Windows Phone 8. Wait and see what features Daniel Rubino got.

  • Top 10 greatest Windows mobile smartphones ever that helped build Windows mobile Phones’ reputation

    Posted on April 10th, 2012 David Brooks No comments

    Nowadays, the mobile phone market has been developing in a tremendous fast way to provide worldwide users more excellent and user friendly mobile devices. Many mobile phone manufacturers aroused with competitive candidates to compete with each other in the fierce smartphone market, like the Apple iPhone 4S, Samsung Galaxy Note, HTC One X, etc. which act not even a simple smartphone, but rather a multimedia player to enable you fulfill your leisure entertainment by watching HD movies on them, not even to say the freshly released Nokia Lumia 900. In the modern smartphone market, Windows mobile phones play a big role and have become more and more popular along with the improvement of Windows mobile platform, like the upcoming release of Windows 8 OS. Microsoft’s very own Windows Phone has been building a lot of buzz of late – thank primarily to the highly coveted Nokia Lumia 900. There have been so many successful Windows Phones like the Nokia Lumia 900, Samsung Focus S, Dell Venue Pro, and HTC Titan II, which all easily all stand out as the premier of the crop, but long before them, Microsoft built its reputation around its aging Windows Mobile platform. Today, what we are going to mention are the phones that ever helped build Windows mobile phones’ reputation ever. We have got a top 10 list for that. Check bellow:

    LG eXpo

    LG eXpoAfter putting out the dismal LG Incite, AT&T got itself a beauty in the LG eXpo. Aside from it sporting a landscape style QWERTY keyboard, things that made this smartphone outstanding are that this device provided business users with the functionality of a fingerprint reader and an optional pico projector attachment. It could be said that this smartphone was mostly prepared for business users.

    HTC Touch

    HTC TouchThe HTC Touch became famous because it is the first device the manufacturer planned to the high-end smartphone since the landing of original iPhone, since which many manufacturers rushed into touchscreen hysteria. The HTC Touch first established the whole customized UI thing with Windows Mobile thanks to its TouchFLO interface.

    Samsung SGH-i760

    Samsung SCH i760If you’re a button aficionado, you would surely fall in love with Samsung SCH-i760. Despite donning a boring numeric name, the Samsung SCH-i760 was covered from head-to-toe with buttons all around – thus, making it one lovable smartphone for business class users. Sure it was massive because of its built-in keyboard, but it managed to pack on a numeric keypad and sizable touchscreen as well.

    Palm Treo 700w

    Palm Treo 700wPalm Treo 700w is the very first Palm made device to run Windows Mobile – as opposed to its own platform. Indeed, some saw it as blasphemy, but nevertheless, it embodied all of the wonderful aspects we associate with a Palm device. For example, it featured that wonderful portrait style QWERTY form factor.

    Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1

    Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1Everywhere we look nowadays, Sony’s line of smartphones has the XPERIA branding on them. Some people might forget that the XPERIA line actually didn’t start off with Android, but rather, it came to light with Windows Mobile in the form of the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1. In addition to being its first Windows Mobile smartphone, it flaunted one killer industrial design on top of its high-end specs.

    Samsung OMNIA

    Samsung OMNIAActually, not only does Samsung OMNIA get the credit for being the first OMNIA branded smartphone, but it was also the first respectable high-end offering from Samsung’s camp. It featured an optical trackpad, 5-megapixel snapper, 3.2” touchscreen, and supported both DivX and XviD out of the box.

    HTC Touch Pro2

    HTC Touch Pro2Simply, it’s one of HTC’s finest smartphones ever, as it balanced things out with its impeccable design for a QWERTY based smartphone. Thankfully, HTC brought back the tilting action with its touchscreen – essentially emulating the look of a laptop. Even to this day, it has probably one of the best landscape style keyboards around.

    Toshiba TG01

    Toshiba TG01Even though Toshiba is still trying to establish itself in the smartphone market right now, we have to give the TG01 some credit for the reasoning that it was the first to market with a 1GHz processor – something that seemed so awe-inspiring back then. Running Qualcomm’s 1GHz Snapdragon chip, it exuded a sense of speed in nearly everything it did. Additionally, it managed to pack an impressive 4.1” WVGA touchscreen and this cool looking paneled UI.

    Palm Treo Pro

    Palm Treo ProIf there was a Windows Mobile smartphone gunning at the BlackBerry form factor, the Palm Treo Pro was it! We can’t think of anything sexier looking using the portrait style QWERTY form factor other than this device. Interestingly enough, it was HTC that actually manufactured the Palm Treo Pro.

    HTC HD2

    HTC HD2Frankly, the HTC HD2 was in a whole league of its own, since it featured many things we tend to see so commonplace in today’s market. Certainly, it was a larger than life smartphone for its killer industrial design, a ridiculously large 4.3” WVGA display, and 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor.

  • Nokia released Lumia 900 in New York on the Times Square Event as 2012 Easter Sunday gift

    Posted on April 9th, 2012 David Brooks No comments

    On Easter Sunday, Nokia has finally brought out the long anticipated new samrthone Lumia 900 on the Times Square Event in New York. Just before the release event of Nokia Lumia 900, Nokia promised that it would bring “a live performance with special guest”. No, we all know the special guest is the musical super star Nicki Minaj, who delivered an amazing audio visual experience in Times Square that brought New York City to a standstill. The Nokia Lumia 900 is really an amazing smartphone, which is available in three colors: black, cyan and glossary white, at only $99.99 from AT&T with a new two-year contract (Amazon cuts down that price to $20 or $50 depending on where you are with AT&T). It represents a number of firsts: it is the first high-end Windows Phone from Nokia to arrive in the U.S., it is the first 4G LTE smartphone from Nokia, and it is one of the first 4G LTE Windows Phones on the market.

    With the release event, let’s take a look at the Nokia Lumia 900 performance. Just like its precede Nokia Lumia 800, the Lumia 900 comes with stunning industrial design, great build quality, and a fantastic ClearBlack AMOLED display, great network performance, solid battery life, and a fast and fluid user interface due to Windows Phone 7.5. But of course, there are also some shortcomings of this new smartphone, like its weak performance in camera and shortage of apps to compete with its counterparts.

    Nokia Lumia 900The 4.3 inch Lumia 900 sports a ClearBlack AMOLED display with WVGA (480×800 pixels) screen resolution that features tremendous viewing angles, inky deep blacks, and punchy colors. The screen resolution may make it less wonderful to watch HD videos on Lumia 900, compared to its counterpart devices like 720P Android smartphones and Retina display smartphones. But with its large screen display, it still provides excellent experience for HD movie lovers for unlimited movie enjoyment on the go.

    The Lumia 900 is powered by the 1.4GHz single-core Qualcomm processor and 512MB of RAM, just as the Lumia 800 and Lumia 710 smartphones. The processor has no trouble pushing around the Windows Phone 7.5 Metro interface. Still, the fast and fluid interface is a joy to navigate and provides a very different experience than other smartphone platforms. Windows Phone 7.5 introduced a few new features to make it easier to navigate a long list of apps, but I feel that the app list could benefit from some sort of folder organization system, especially when there are a lot of apps installed on the phone.

    The back of the 900 features an 8 megapixel camera and LED flashlight. The eight megapixel camera, plus with wide-angle 28mm, f/2.2 Carl Zeiss lens, looks fantastic, but in practice it doesn’t live up to the hype. The Lumia 900 supports to record 720p video, which is better though with continuous autofocus while filming, sharp and good framerate, while compared to other phones on the market that are shooting 1080p clips. Also, it includes a 1MP front camera, which could be used for video chatting. But the image effect is really not that good.

    As to the apps available for Lumia 900, Nokia includes its ESPN and App Highlights apps into Lumia 900. You can also get a lot of AT&T services as well. Users could choose to install or uninstall apps available from the Windows Phone Marketplace, which has grown tremendously to over 70,000 apps by now. Of course, there are still a lot of apps missing in Lumia 900.

    The battery life also is an important element for a smartphone. The 1830mAh Nokia Lumia 900’s internal battery is not replaceable by users, but easily cruises through a full day of hard usage even on AT&T’s 4G LTE network. Nokia says the Lumia 900 is rated for 7 hours of talk time, but is really an “all-day” battery.
