Nielsen's Q3 numbers are out: Android's still atop the OS chain, Apple remains number one manufacturer - http://www.engadget.com

Nielsen's Q3 numbers are out: Android's still atop the OS chain, Apple remains number one manufacturer - http://www.engadget.com

Another quarter has come and gone, and you know what that means: Nielsen ratings are out again. The latest batch of numbers don't reveal anything wildly new, but they're still just as telling nonetheless: 44 percent of mobile subscribers in the US use a smartphone in the US. Of those, 71 percent are in possession of an Android device or an iPhone. Additionally, 56 percent of all phone purchases during the third quarter were smartphones. And -- this probably won't come as a surprise to anyone -- at a decisive 42 percent, Android remains the number one smartphone OS while Apple is still perched firmly on top as the leading manufacturer (28 percent). Check out the source link below and graph above for more of the tiny details.

Windows 8 public beta set to arrive February 2012, allegedly- www.gsmarena.com


Citing sources close to Microsoft, TheNextWeb, claims that the Windows 8 public beta is set for release in February 2012.
gsmarena 002 Windows 8 public beta set to arrive February 2012, allegedly
There’s nothing set in stone so, you know, don’t hold your breath until we hear something official. Still it doesn’t seem that unlikely as Windows 8 is expected in 2012 anyway and the MWC 2012 is a big event, a fitting place for presenting a converged desktop/mobile OS. The next iteration of Microsoft’s OS will be the first to be designed to work on both desktops and mobile devices like tablets.
If you’re keen to try out the new Metro UI on your PC (or Mac) you can check out this article for download links. It’s free to try and works pretty much fine and without major hiccups. It’s also pretty easy to install, hopefully taking less of your precious time too.

Cyan Nokia Lumia 800 hits Three UK - GSMArena.com news


25 November, 2011

If you like the Nokia Lumia 800, but find its primary black color a bit too conservative for your taste, we've got some great news for you. The cyan version of the WP smartphone just went on sale at the UK carrier Three.
The news was confirmed by the company's official Twitter account, but its official website still doesn't mention anything about a cyan Lumia 800. So, if you want to get yourself a shiny new cyan unit, you'd have to visit one of Three's brick and mortar stores.
But for the different color of the non-painted plastic unibody, the cyan Lumia 800 is identical to its black sibling. There are no changes to either the materials used or the internals of the device, but we guess the color change is enough to make it targeted at quite different audience.
It's yet unclear when the other carriers will get the cyan and pink versions of the Lumia 800, but those should come up soon enough.

4.3-Inch Nokia Lumia 900 Gets Leaked By Nokia (Video) - www.techcrunch.com

Lumia900

It’s only been a couple weeks since Nokia debuted their first Windows Phones, but today we’re getting something a little less official. The Nokia Lumia 900 has found its way to YouTube thanks to none other than Nokia themselves. Apparently the Finnish phone maker posted a video to court developers, promising them the combination of “Nokia’s stunning hardware” and “a dynamic Microsoft OS.”

01 November, 2011

Nokia World 2011: Live coverage - GSMArena.com


GSMArena team, 25 October 2011.

Introduction

Today marked the beginning of the Windows Phone era for Nokia. The company announced to make the Micorosft platform its primary OS just before the MWC in February, but it's only now, at Nokia World that it finally had actual products to show us.
The Nokia CEO, Steven Elop, stepped on stage and unveiled the Nokia Lumia 800 and Lumia 710. The Lumia 800 borrows the Nokia N9 unibody design and comes with a 3.7" ClearBlack AMOLED, a 1.4GHz Scorpion CPU, 512 MB of RAM and 16GB of storage under the hood.

The sales are up 3% YoY and 5% sequentially, but their net profit is down 23% compared to Q2 of 2010 and 2% sequentially.

The company become the world's leading smartphone manufacturer selling 27.8 million in the past three months, overtaking Apple, which only managed 17.1 million.

So, Nokia World starts in a couple of days in London, and the world is expecting to see Nokia's first Windows Phone-based smartphones. The Finns announced they are switching to the Microsoft platform in February, but only now are we going to see an actual device, resulting from this partnership.

23 October, 2011

With barely three days left until Nokia World kicks off in London, a series of one second long teasers has hit the TV channels in the UK, showcasing some of the design highlights in the upcoming Nokia 800.
The teasers are very much in line with the previously leaked, disco/metro UI themed promo images of the Windows Phone running smartphone. You can see them put together in a single video clip below.



With the press shots of the Nokia 800 out in the wild as well, all we are left to do, is wait for the official announcement in the next few days. Stay tuned.

The Samsung Galaxy Nexus, confirmed to be coming to Verizon before the end of 2011 - www.gsmarena.com


It would appear that newly announced Samsung Galaxy Nexus, with its Ice Cream Sandwich goodness will also be making an appearance in LTE form.

But just the other day, Samsung and Google’s Unpacked Event in Hong Kong brought the next evolutionary step of Android to the fore. Two key announcments of course came out of the event; the coming of Android 4.0, dubbed Ice Cream Sandwich, and a vessel with which to carry it into the market, the Samsung Galaxy Nexus.

Belle-powered Nokia 603 goes official with a 1GHz CPU and NFC - GSMArena.com news


13 October, 2011 
 
Nokia introduced a new member of its family of Symbian Belle-running smartphones. The Nokia 603 is a youthful looking, compact smartphone with a 3.5" ClearBlack LCD with IPS technology and a 1 GHz CPU.
The Nokia 603 screen has nHD resolution (360 x 640 pixels) and 1000 nits brightness, so it's probably the same unit that we saw on the Nokia 701. The smartphone offers quad-band 2G and tri-band 3G with 14 Mbps HSDPA and 5.7 Mbps HSUPA.

WP Nokia 800 Sun official photos surface, N9 meets its long-lost twin - GSMArena.com news


10 October, 2011 
 
Just over two weeks before Nokia World kicks off and the Finnish company unveils its first WP smartphones, we got official photos of one of them. Promo materials of Nokia 800, which was previously rumored as Lumia just popped up, confirming that it will be one of the Nokia smartphones to appear at the event.
As you can see, the Nokia 800 body is almost identical to that of the Nokia N9. We've been playing with MeeGo-running flagship of the Finns for the past few days and we cannot see any reason why using the same design on a WP7 smartphone would be a bad idea.

Nokia C5-06 and C5-05 pop up, are cheaper versions of C5-03 - GSMArena.com news


07 October, 2011 
 
Couple of new Nokia phones appeared on Nokia's European website today. Rather than successors to the Nokia N9, the Finnish manufacturer has developed some variations of the C5-03, namely the C5-05 (also known as the C5-04 for the Canadian market only) and the C5-06.



Symbian Belle roll-out to start on October 26 - GSMArena.com news


07 October, 2011 
 
All Nokia smartphones, which already got the Anna update and the ones running it out of the box, will be updated with Symbian Belle on October 26. It will be available through Ovi Suite and as an OTA update.
So, the update is coming for the Nokia's N8, C7, E7 and C6-01, as well for the E6, X7 and hopefully, the Nokia 500.

Nokia Tweet claims this information is like 100% sure. October 26 is also the day when Nokia World 2011 kicks in, so we guess we can put some money on it. We guess we'll know for sure in three weeks.

Oh, what’s that Google/Samsung? You’ve canceled next week’s Ice Cream Sandwich/Nexus Prime event? That’s cool. I mean, sure: pretty much all of the tech press has non-refundable plane tickets and hotel rooms already… but hey: at least we all get to work from San Diego for a few days now!
Regardless, most of what they would’ve announced is leaking out now anyway. The latest leak to spring up: a series of beautiful screenshots capturing Ice Cream Sandwich in full detail.
As you might’ve expected from the constant chatter that Ice Cream Sandwich would bring the overhauled look and feel of Honeycomb’s tablet interface to phones, Ice Cream Sandwich… looks like Honeycomb running on a smaller screen. And it looks crazy beautiful.
What do you think? Do you prefer the original, vanilla Android, or the new, Tron-tastic look of ICS?
