So here we are, day three of my look into what the biggest players in the smartphone world will, or possibly should do in 2012.
Nokia is going big with the whole Windows Phone thing, which is probably something to do with that infamous deal it struck with Microsoft last year. As part of the Finnish firm's newfound love for all things Windows Phone, Nokia has now announced its first WP7 handset to be made available in the United States.
We're fast approaching that time of year again. The time of year when tech journalists and anyone else mad enough descends upon the Sin City in order to get their hands on the latest and greatest gadgets the world of tech has to offer.
What happens when you put three of the latest smartphones, a video camera, a WiFi connection and a smartphone enthusiast in one room? You get a video comparison. In today’s video comparison, we get to compare and contrast the browser performance of the iPhone 4, Lumia 800 and the iPhone 4S. Details and video available after the jump!
Microsoft is on something of an app releasing bender of late. If they aren't releasing new iPhone and Android apps or games, then they are bringing new apps to their own also-ran mobile operating system, Windows Phone 7.
Microsoft has released a fun (and free!) application that promises a few laughs. Face Swap is available for Windows Phone users and with a few simple steps, allows you to swap faces between two people. It may work with more than two, but I have not tested it. The application can be downloaded from the Windows Phone Marketplace.
Nokia plans on creating a limited number of handsets inspired by the newer Batman franchise. The Lumia 800 will feature a laser-etched Batman logo on the back of the device.
If you combine the entire Apple and Android OS phones out there, how much market share would they take? According to the research firm, The NDP Group, that number is 82%. That’s quite a bit of the pie.
Yesterday, we talked about Bazaar - an alternate apps/tweaks distribution platform for Windows Phone 7 (dubbed as the Cydia of WP7) - and today, we will be talking about Themes - a theming platform for Windows Phone 7 (which we would like to dub as the WinterBoard of WP7). Details after the jump!
Lync 2010 is now available for download for Windows Phone users. Aimed primarily towards the business crowd, the new app includes Lync web app and Lync Online. In short, Microsoft took a bunch of applications dealing with communications and bundled them nicely together under the new Lync brand.
