We're called All About Symbian for a reason... never let it be said that we don't review everything that has Symbian written on the side of it - last month's Smartphone's Show gave me the best product from Symbian in a long time. Read on for Ewan's video review of this must have item.
Guest writer Matt Radford brings us his impressions of the Apple iPhone after a lifetime of S60 use, from Nokia 7650 to N70. Although the transition would have been even more apt if he'd gone from something more up to date like an N95, it's still a terrifically interesting comparison and a good read.
In the final part of his review of the Nokia N81 Ewan looks at two applications that add a little something to the multimedia and music credentials of the N81: Podcasting and Visual Radio. Ewan then brings us some thoughts about the positioning of this music and gaming orientated Nseries device before coming to an overall conclusion.
Thanks to Ed for pointing out that firmware 2.0633.65.01 is now available for the Nokia E61i in many regions (updating people from 1.0633 etc). There's no changelog as yet, someone please comment as to what's new!
Zach, over at Symbian in Motion, has just done a long term review of the USA-spec Nokia N95 (larger battery, redesigned back, more RAM), comparing it to an imported European original. Well worth a read if you're in the USA.
Going for a business device doesn't mean missing great photo opportunities. I took a few moments out this month to snap some of the colourful Autumn and to see what the Nokia E90's 3 megapixel camera could really do. It's not an N95, but it's close.
In part 3 of his extended review of the Nokia N81 8GB, Ewan experiments with music synchronisation, using both Nokia's music system and Microsoft's Media Player, before moving on to test the integration with Nokia's new Music Store. In summary, things went pretty smoothly, with a few caveats. As a music-focussed smartphone, the N81 8GB seems to be faring quite well.
I've been mulling over an editorial looking forward to the (hopefully imminent) Nokia N95 firmware upgrade but was stopped in my tracks when Vaibhav Sharma, who has perfected telepathic theft, managed to raid my mind and get it all down for the world to read first(!) Kudos. Nokia, please take note of this list of things you need to fix and add. Users, enjoy - I wonder how many of these we'll see in the real world?
In this news post we have rounded up some information from today's N82 launch including a summary of the virtual event and numbers on the reduced lag and latency time on the N82's camera. We have also rounded some initial commentary and media from around the web. Read on for more.
