Nokia Releases Nokia 808 PureView, with 41MP camera!
Filed under Tech
Finally, after 2 years reigning the mobile world, the N8 can finally retire. For the time has now come for the Nokia 808 to rule!
Last week at MWC 2012, Nokia brought the PureView teaser to fever pitch with the 41 megapixel camera of the Symbian Belle-running Nokia PureView 808.
The Nokia 808 PureView uses a 41 MP sensor, which captures image data from seven adjacent pixels and condenses it into one, resulting in stills at around 5 MP resolution with amazing detail and low noise levels. The optics are Carl Zeiss and there’s Xenon flash and a LED one acting as a video light.
Technically, the sensor is able to capture 3 MP, 5 MP, 8 MP, 38 MP at 4:3 aspect ratio and 2 MP, 5 MP [Default], 8 MP, 34 MP at 16:9.
Video recording goes as high as FullHD 1080p at 30 fps and there’s also 720p@30fps. Video is H264 encoded and supports stereo sound. The large image sensor allows 4x zoom in 1080p and 6x in 720p.
The Nokia 808 PureView has a single-core 1.3 GHz processor and 512 MB of RAM and runs Symbian Belle. The display is a 16:9 4″ AMOLED unit of nHD (640 x 360) resolution covered with curved Gorilla Glass.
There’s NFC, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0, USB on the go and 16 GB of onboard storage.
The Nokia 808 PureView should be on the shelves around May 2012.
The specs, in brief:
- 1.3 Ghz ARM11 CPU (with unspecified Broadcom GPU)
- 512 RAM
- 16 GB internal storage, expandable via MicroSD card
- 4 inch CBD AMOLED with 640×360 resolution (how sad!)
- Polycarbonate body with Gorilla glass front
- Physical buttons up front
- 41 MP camera (with 1/1.2″ CMOS sensor) and Full HD (1080p) video recording – with PureView technology
- And other usual stuffs on a Nokia

Nokia ‘Champagne’ Tablet Leaked? [Updated!]
Filed under Tech
Now, take this with a large pinch of salt.
Apparently, what we’re seeing is a picture of the unannounced and long-rumoured Nokia tablet, codenamed ‘Champagne‘.
As the source indicates, nothing much can be deduced.
“…the Nokia tablet does appear to be a possible black and champagne coloured tablet/possible keyboard combo, with rounded edges.”
But it does look like it’s having a curved glass, ala N9/Lumia 800. So this could possibly be a real deal. Well, let’s just wait and see.
Update: Now, this could very well be fake. Take a look at this picture below, of the Nokia Booklet 3G, and judge yourself!

Nokia launches the long-awaited Nokia N9!
Filed under Tech
After years and years of waiting, ever since the N900 with Maemo 5 was launched almost 2 years ago, finally Nokia has decided to step ahead in the game, with the new Nokia N9!
Specs and more images below:
The phone comes with 16GB or 64GB of onboard memory and 1GB of RAM wrapped in a polycarbonate shell that is colored all the way through, so dings and scratches won’t show — unless the wounds run deep, of course. Connectivity comes courtesy of quad-band GSM and penta-band WCDMA radios, plus Bluetooth 2.1, NFC, and GPS. There is also a dedicated camera button for the 8 megapixel wide-angle shooter, which is capable of aperture F2.2 for low light picture taking and true 16:9 720p video recording. Oh, and it’s an AF shooter, not EDoF.
The entire thing measures 116.45- x 61.2- x 7.6-12.1mm and weighs 135 grams, with a battery capable of lasting up to 50 hours (music), 4.5 hours (720p video), or between seven and 11 hours (GSM yappin’). You’ll also get gratis turn-by-turn drive and walk navigation with voice guidance in Maps, a dedicated Drive app, proximity sensor and a choice of hue: black, cyan, and magenta. Other hardware specs include 802.11a/b/g/n WiFi, an ambient light sensor, compass, orientation sensor, a micro SIM slot, tethering support and a 3.5mm “AV connector.” It’ll be humming along on MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan, with apps being compliant with Qt 4.7 and HTML5 support bundled in.

Steve Jobs declares victory over rivals
Filed under Tech
With Apple posting record profits amid zooming sales of iPhones and iPads, CEO Steve Jobs declared victory over main rival and BlackBerry maker Research In Motion (RIM).
“We have now passed RIM, and I don’t see them catching up with us in the foreseeable feature,” Jobs told the Canadian media in a conference call after Apple’s astounding results Monday.
“We are out to win this one,” Job said.
Jobs also thrashed Google’s Android and its growing market share, something he doesn’t acknowledge of anyway. Surprisingly, he however mentioned of Nokia as a strong and healthy competitor, a company worthy of admiration likewise.
On tablets of other manufacturers, he also said “The current crop of 7-inch tablets are going to be DOA, dead on arrival,” before also stating “Their manufacturers will learn the painful lesson that their tablets are too small.”
