Here is a story sent to MNB by Janne who has decided to collect some of the thoughts and discussions over the past week or so. We occasionally get articles sent in and most of the time it just goes under our own post, but now I’m going to start putting them into their own [...]
I know these have been out for a while, but I hadn’t seen too many reviews of it. Thanks to Nokia Australia’s PR Agency, I was able to get one to trial and bring you a review on. I have a video that re-iterates everything I say in this post so if you prefer to [...]
Ah, something a lot of you can say today, “I have the Official Nokia Belle update”. Many of you have been commenting that you’ve actually got it today. I wasn’t expecting anything until tomorrow but surprise surprise it’s there. I’m guessing a lot of us have been skeptical as to whether Nokia would deliver it [...]
Well that was quick, I just posted about Nokia teasing the white Lumia 800 on facebook; after which Slashgear just released a hands-on with the Unicorn White Chocolate Beauty. This ought to cure anyone with Xerostomia *DROOL* the phone appears glossier than the other colors which are more of a smudge proof Matte, it also [...]
My Dream Nokia #43 is another Nokia tablet design. This one as a few of the others has the N9/Lumia style design but this one reminding me of the N8 too (perhaps the black ends on the blue edges?). This design is by Tristan who wanted to have a bit of fun speculating on [...]
As part of Social Media Week, Nokia hid two magicians behind a secret trophy case which could only be found/accessed through Foursquare. This is one of three magic trics filmed during Social Media Week opening party in New York. This trick was a bag of -meh-. Video by nokia
We saw a couple of Amazing Everyday videos today, and a recurring comment I was making was that Nokia really is making it Amazing each and every day. With the  Nokia Lumia coming to Australia, they’re going to have an Amazing Everyday, each day from March 1 for a month. Video  by NokiaAustralia
Save the roundy is another one of those ever so popular physics based games where you clear level after level of difficult puzzles, this one is based on the concept of getting all the roundies (roundii?) down to the metal platform without tipping them off the edge and falling into the dark abyss. Of course it starts [...]

Nokia Spain apparently took over the Barcelona Metro, erecting the Nokia Lumia University to learn and experience the Nokia Lumia phones at the Lumia Campus. Again, another random, odd but fun thing to spice up the day of those members of the public who get to see these cool Nokia Lumia Amazing Everyday campaigns. The [...]
Another Nokia How to video/webcast. This time for S40 and creating animations. It is, as the title says, quite technical. Andrew Knight from the Nokia development team shares technical tips on creating animation for the Series 40 platform. Using the Nokia web tools development environment, Andrew gives you a quick and informative look [...]
Here’s Nokia’s video on how to make those classic Nokia Squircle style icons for Symbian. You don’t just have to use these for a Symbian app. You can perhaps use them in other places where you find the squircle shape to be an appropriate. You want to – use your own glyph in svg format [...]
Roid from WeloveWP.HK emailed to say he saw a warning message on the Nokia Lumia 800′s diagnostic tool warning about For use in multi-core devices only. When the USB Hub is turned on USB charging will no longer fuction. Device will be reboot after change. Do you wish to proceed? What is this USB Hub that they [...]
The Amazing Everyday campaign is really coming into its own because Nokia really is pretty much trying to do something ‘amazing’ EVERYDAY. Amazing is of course, relative to the person experiencing it but we can take it as something cool, pleasant, rather out of the ordinary for those people who stumble upon these random Nokia [...]
Hamdhan who let us know earlier about the Belle Update for Nokia 500 (providing us screenshots too) shares his review of his experience with Nokia Belle on his Nokia 500 with MNB’s readers. I thought it would be very interesting given the lack of GPU on the thing and the dependency of S^3 to offload [...]
As I said before, we don’t normally talk about new app releases for WP because there are just to many (and already try to restrict WP app content just to Lumiappadays). However, I got contacted by Rafe Blandford from AAS and AAWP who launched an app yesterday for All About Windows Phone. No [...]
Not much to go on here, but Nok4Us.com seems to have received the following images in an email; claiming that this is the low end LTE/4G  WP device we where told to expect at MWC?  From the images it’s obviously a C7 styled device running WP; with colorful backs (like the 710)- the concept of it being C7 shaped [...]
Now that everyone is getting Belle (including the Nokia 500) why not S60 users on the 5800? Well here’s an app that can give you the full Belle experience, including up to six home screens, shortcuts & widgets, Belles pull down status bar and much more… Unfortunately similar to SPB shell this runs on top of the default ui as a separate application [...]
If you follow me on twitter, you’d see that today Nokia Australia gave me an N950 after talking to some people at the Lumia Launch. Anyway, I have PR 1.2 (and will probably give you a guys a run through of it, as well as comparison of it with N9) and went to enable landscape [...]
Once the rumour for the Nokia 808 PureView began, there has been a ton of excitement and doubt. I won’t say any more on this, the discussion is available there. http://mynokiablog.com/2012/02/13/rumour-nokia-808-pureview-with-crazy-camera-resolution-30-40mp-x-ray-vision-optional-p-jk/ Rest assured, it’s high and dsmobile (and various sources) are sticking firm to the high MP count. Here’s another instance where dsmobile confirmed [...]
Just yesterday we heard about Nokia Belle coming to Navifirm for the Nokia 500 – indicating that it would appear on official Nokia channels soon. M. Hamdhan emailed us these screenshots that show Nokia Belle as an official Update for the Nokia 500. Â I’m interested to see how Belle works without that GPU. Any other [...]
Today’s Lumiappaday is a Horror/Adventure/Mystery game, where you star as  a supernatural photographer investigating a Haunted house to discover the supernatural and unknown. The game comes with a solid slightly spooky soundtrack as well as the usual run-arounds where you spend the majority of the game collecting hidden keys to unlock doors. Overall the game is nice if [...]
Fired up tweetdeck (hadn’t done so in a while as all the mobile/web alternatives changed to suit me better) and saw this story in one of my feeds. Â The post is written by Gadi Amit on Fastcodesign, a design centric blog (quite popular in the US). Gadi is the president of NewDealDesign LLC, a [...]
In this video interview with Stephen Elop starting at 06:04, Elop explains that Nokia are launching Lumia sequentially, and only when all of the pieces are in place to give the FULL Nokia Lumia experience. That includes getting the correct marketplace, operator billing (all with the local languages) and of course, Language variants for the [...]
Here’s another look at the Nokia Lumia launch in Malaysia, this time at the outside event with a mini street carnival thingy. Good attention grabbing perhaps. Hopefully Nokia Malaysia can keep up the buzz with the new Lumia. At least there’s some consistent high end branding going on with Nokia now. Thank goodness they picked [...]
I meant to publish this on the weekend but I must have forgotten. In case you hadn’t seen it, this is an interesting ident video (one of those clips a tv channel has in between shows). This Kanal 5 actually turns into a Nokia Lumia advert. I forgot where the source was, I think [...]
