Vodafone UK now offers Nokia 700 for 26 GBP per month

Vodafone UK now offers Nokia 700 for 26 GBP per month

Posted on Oct 26, 2011 by MG1

Nokia 700, which we know as one of the first Symbian Belle smartphones, is now available from Vodafone UK. The Big Red carrier is offering Nokia’s baby for free on a two-year 26 GBP per month contract. That money gets you 300 minutes, unlimited texts, 500 MB of mobile data and 1GB of BT OpenZone Wi-Fi each month. Alternatively, there’s the cheaper 20.50 GBP per month option that rocks 100 minutes, 500 texts, 250 MB of data and the same 1GB of BT OpenZone Wi-Fi access per month. With this plan, however, you’ll have to pour out 99 GBP to get the phone.
Not sure I can recommend a Symbian Belle device to anyone these days, especially when we know that the same cash can get you a decent Android s...

Nokia Sea Ray was once a MeeGo device for Verizon

Nokia Sea Ray was once a MeeGo device for Verizon

Posted on Oct 24, 2011 by MG3

If you aren’t yet over Nokia’s abrupt decision to put an end to the MeeGo project then you might not like knowing that the smartphone codenamed the Sea Ray was once a CDMA device bound for Verizon with MeeGo on-board.
The Nokia Sea Ray is a device rumored to be heading to AT&T and will be one of the Finnish manufacturer’s first handsets to feature the Windows Phone operating system. Recently some press photos surfaced of the Sea Ray which is also known as the Nokia 800. The hardware looks very similar to the MeeGo powered N9 that unfortunately won’t see the light of day in most countries.

Another photo of the Nokia Sabre leaks, confirms tiny screen, but is it real?

Another photo of the Nokia Sabre leaks, confirms tiny screen, but is it real?

Posted on Oct 24, 2011 by MG3

WPCentral have been sent this supposed leaked shot of the Nokia Sabre, showing the device to feature a very small 3.5 inch screen.
The device also lacks any way to switch cameras, indicating no front facing camera.
On the other hand, the strategic location of that thumb over the Windows key does make me rather suspicious of a hoax, especially given the resemblance of the handset to the recently released Nokia 603 (right).
Do our readers think the device is real, or just Nokia throwing us off the trail? Let us know below.

Orange exec says the future of Windows Phone depends on Nokia

Posted on Oct 24, 2011 by MG3

Orange is one of the biggest carrier with presence all around the world - from Europe to the Middle East and even Africa. It’s a key factor for the success of Windows Phone, but up until now, the support for Microsoft’s platform on the side of the carrier hasn’t resulted in user adoption. Quite the contrary.

Nokia 800 and other Windows Phone handsets revealed

Nokia 800 and other Windows Phone handsets revealed

Posted on Oct 24, 2011 by MG3

Both Nokia CEO Stephen Elop and Microsoft chief Steve Ballmer have as good as confirmed that Nokia's first batch of Windows Phone handsets will be unveiled at Nokia World next week.
But that's not soon enough for the ever-hungry internet, as pictures of two of the line-up have made their way online.
The Nokia 800, previously known as the Sea Ray, is basically a rebadged Nokia N9 running Windows Phone 7.5 rather than the doomed MeeGo OS.

Press photos of Nokia 800 leak

Posted on Oct 20, 2011 by MG1

The upcoming yet still unofficial Nokia 800 that many have come to know as the Sea Ray has leaked in a set of press photos that show off the Windows Phone powered device in three different colors.

There haven’t been any announcements to this point regarding their handsets specs, pricing and availability. The leaked press photos show the Nokia 800 in three different colors, black, blue and pink, and remind us all

Nokia 800 to only cost 499 Euro

Nokia 800 to only cost 499 Euro

Posted on Oct 19, 2011 by MG1

Plaffo has heard from trusted sources that the upcoming Nokia 800/Searay will be retailing for only 499 Euro (around £436/$682). This is of course much cheaper than HTC’s flagship, the HTC Titan, and as can be seen in the far right column of the price list above cheaper than many other handsets also.
In fact the earlier leaked price list above corroborates the rumour. Plaffo notes the right column is arranged from high to low, and the Blackberry Bold above seems to be 499 Euro also, and the one below 429 Euro.
We are of course expecting the handset to be announced next week, and the phones to be available across the major countries in Europe in the first week of November.

Microsoft doles out the dough to Nokia and Samsung, plans Mango marketing bonanza for year's end

Microsoft doles out the dough to Nokia and Samsung, plans Mango marketing bonanza for year's end

Posted on Oct 17, 2011 by MG1

Know who loves it when other OEMs call him big poppa? Ballmer, that's who. So much so that he's opened up the company's coffers to Nokia and Samsung for a holiday blitz of Mango marketing. Hold onto your hats though, it's no carte blanche access to Redmond's Gringotts. According to a report on Mobile Magazine, inside sources claim MS has set aside ₤28 million (about $44 million) for the endeavor, with about ₤20 million of that reserved for Nokia's first Windows Phone 7.5 handset. This joint marketing effort is reportedly a broader extension of the cooperative agreements all parties agreed to, ensuring future WP devices get the media saturation they deserve. So, keep your eyes peeled this upc...

Half of Symbian users would consider a Windows Phone from Nokia

Half of Symbian users would consider a Windows Phone from Nokia

Posted on Oct 17, 2011 by MG1

According to a poll taken by allaboutsymbian.com, a little less than half of the users of a Nokia Symbian device would consider purchasing a Windows Phone from the Finland based manufacturer.
Nokia’s global dominance has been on a steady decline over the last few years thanks to the substantial growth and popularity of their rivals. Realizing that Symbian might not be able to survive today’s market, Nokia has adopted Microsoft’s mobile platform in an attempt to compete.
Just a few weeks ago a leaked image surfaced of what is possible the Nokia Sea Ray, which many expect to me the manufacturer’s first Windows Phone powered handset. A combination of the young yet polished Windows Phone opera...
