WILL JUSTIN BIEBER'S #BELIEBERS UNITE FOR NOKIA'S LUMIA EOS?

Expectations are high for the new Nokia 41 MegaPixel LUMIA EOS phone, Nokia has teased us day in day out about this device and they have finally set  an event for July 11th to launch the device in New York. The phone should be the reincarnation of Nokia's 808 PUREVIEW released last year on the symbian OS. Nokia has since moved on from the Symbian OS and has chosen The Windows Phone platform as their new home.The WP8 platform has not been able to find a solid footing in the mobile phone industry and it threatens to drag Nokia down with it.

However Nokia doesn't plan to go down without a fight. They have since employed various marketing tactics to stay afloat. They sent out a very suggestive tweet saying, "Lots of  #Beliebers zooming into our webcast on july 11th?". Now i'm not a professor of linguistics but its practically obvious what nokia is insinuating here, some sources speculate that Nokia has enrolled Justin Bieber to be a brand ambassador of some sort for their windows phone brand, i tend to agree with this line of thinking, they recently threw LUMIA BEAT party they threw in lagos with headlining acts like Burna boy, Olamide and Tonto Dikeh its seems nokia is trying to capture the mindshare of youths in different communities around the world who else will better fit those shoes than the Young Pop Icon himself who has a dedicated fanbase of pre-teens that idolize him. Another convenient coincidence is the fact that Bieber himself just reached 41 million Followers on twitter and Nokia is planning to launch a 41 MegaPixel device, the elements seem to be working in favour of Nokia these days.

Most people want to see Nokia Succeed, even though i still wish Nokia would ditch Windows Phone for Android, I would hate to see Nokia go down just like that after giving us such nice phones like the N91, E7,

N95 and a host of others.If it would take Justin Bieber to safe Nokia so be it.

TECNO PHANTOM A1: FULL REVIEW

I recently walked into a store at the computer village in Ikeja,Lagos and i saw people huddled around a manufacturers cubicle testing out a new phone, i was amazed to find out it was a Tecno phone that drew such a crowd, not just any Tecno "Kpalasa" phone but a nice looking white device that could be easily mistaken for a samsung galaxy device or even HTC. The Tecno Phantom A1 was released a few weeks ago, it received rave reviews and was being compared to the Samsung Galaxy S3 its critically acclaimed as the best budget Smartphone in the market. I've decided to do this review now as the buzz around the phone has reduced and a review can be done in a cooler atmosphere and without sentiments. OVERVIEW Starting with the packaging, Tecno has really improved with the packaging and presentation of this phone. it comes in a glossy box with all the spec details of the phone printed on the back. Out of the box, it comes with a set of earphones,usb cab...

Blackberry has kept us in the dark since they announced that they would make their famous BBM application available to other platforms hopefully its not too lates since people are getting bored and they have begun to look elsewhere for their Messaging needs, applications like, Hangouts, Whatsapp, Viber, WeChat, ChatOn, etc are already filling that void BBM would not even have enough elbow room to fight for. Blackberry India M.D Sunil Lalvani has reaffirmed claims that BBM for android will be available before the end of this summer as was originally announced by the Manufacturer.

iOS 7: PICTURES AND FIRST IMPRESSIONS

Apple announced iOS 7 at WWDC this week. Today we bring you an in depth Review of the OS. Many iPhone and iOS users have been clamouring for a fresh breath of air in the look and feel of iOS. iOS 7 is already bein touted by apple as the biggest break away from the norm since it announced its first generation iPhone back in 2007. Personally I think the comparison is a little far fetched because most of the functions are already available on other platforms like windows phone and Android. I have included snapshots of the iOS 7 key functions. However let's take a look at the goodies....... LOCK SCREEN: the new lock screen takes the personality of your wallpaper. Its not a far departure from what's available on android jellybean. HOME SCREEN This is the new home screen in iOS 7. Apple redesigned all of its icons for this major update, including Mail, Settings, iTunes, Game Center, Photos, Safari and more. NOTIFICATION CENTER The new Notification Center in iOS 7, activated by...
