Video: Web Browsing on Nokia 808 PureView (default browser & Opera)

Symbian Belle FP1 has come very far, but one major aspect still picked up by reviewers is the Nokia 808 PureView’s default browser.

Symbian fans would almost always recommend you switch over to Opera for a more fluid/less frustrating browsing experience.

Thanks Jill for the tip!

Weekend Watch: Nokia Asha 305 Full touch S40 – Unboxing & Quick Look (English and Urdu)

Posted: 08 Jul 2012 01:37 AM PDT

Here is a double video unboxing and look at the Nokia Asha 305, the full Asha S40 Touch handset.

This has a resistive screen (unlike the capacitive 311).

This comes in a sort of shiny grey, which I find is the best looking colour for the 305.

Note the portrait keypad and keyboard.
