Some leaked pictures of the Nokia N9 have surfaced. Normally when leaked photos are seen, they are blurry and often of just part of the device. In this case, they are very clear and show quite a bit of detail about the Nokia N9.

The Nokia N9 has received a new chassis that looks quite sleek. The chassis of the N9 is full metal mixed with a few plastic parts. The QWERTY keyboard looks to be done well and appears to be of a chiclet design. [Read more…]

Nokia has announced the Nokia X3-02 handset. It’s quite a strange phone from what we can see in that it has a regular numeric keypad on the lower part of the phone along with a 2.4 inch QVGA touchscreen above that.

The touchscreen isn’t a full replacement for the keypad though and essentially makes it easier to navigate around the device which could actually work well.

As well as having a relatively small touchscreen, the Nokia X3-02 has 3G connectivity along with wireless 802.11n and Bluetooth 2.1 which makes it very connectible. [Read more…]

Nokia has opened up pre-orders for the Nokia N8 for those in the US. The cost of the smartphone is $549 and it doesn’t have free shipping for some reason.

The N8 has a release date of the end of September 2010 listed which puts it a month or so behind the current UK launch although we have heard rumours that the UK has also moved a little closer to October although that isn’t confirmed yet.

The N8 is available to pre-order over at the Nokia site available here. [Read more…]

The Nokia N8 was announced all the way back in April with the first hints of the new smartphone being found as early as March as well as even more details reaching back in to February.

All along we have been told to expect the end of August as the release date and in this instance, it seems Nokia [NOK] were exact in what they said as we hear now that the launch date in the UK will be August 26.

The information comes from a mobile phone retailer in the UK who called MobileFun who has the N8 listed on it’s site with an August 26 release date and a price tag of £419.95 inc VAT off contract we assume. [Read more…]

Nokia is launching the N8 soon. Vodafone already has a coming soon page up for the N8 from about 2 months ago and yet, it still hasn’t arrived on their network.

T-Mobile has now also put up a coming soon page for the N8 and just as the Vodafone page, it mentions no specific release date.

Previously we heard that the release date of the Nokia N8 was August 25 which is about a month away still. Nokia need to get this phone out sooner rather than later though as it seems it was leaked far too early which isn’t always a good thing for a new smartphone. [Read more…]

Nokia [NOK] has introduced a new C-series mobile phone to the Netherlands. It is called the C6 but has the C6-01 name which brings a few updates to the older model.

New features include a slight new re-design along with an 8 megapixel camera. This is up from the original C6 that had a 5 megapixel camera.

As well as getting a higher resolution camera on the back, a dual-LED flash has also been included to help provide better picture quality in darker light situations. [Read more…]

The Nokia N900 uses a Linux-based system called Maemo. If you like the N900 but not the standard OS then you can now switch to Android 2.2 thanks to a few hackers.

The team working on the N900 managed to successfully load up Android 2.2 on to the Nokia N900 allowing users to make use of the Google [GOOG] OS.

The version running on the N900 does have a few limitations. One of those is that the slide down status bar doesn’t contain any icons. Normally when dragging the status bar down you’ll see a list of details such as messages received, USB mounted and missed calls, but nothing is found in there although you can still drag the menu down.
