My Dream Nokia #72: Nokia Lumia 990 concept, Quad/Octo core, 16MP PureView V1/V2 camera, 5″ 1080p screen

Posted: 08 Dec 2012 12:33 PM PST

Edgar Mkrtchyan emailed to share with us his latest creation for My Dream Nokia #72, Nokia Lumia 990, as well as an NFC BT accessory for using any headphones over bluetooth.

 With the school I had not much time to make concepts, but this
one date early October, this is personally one of my favorite in terms
of design and specifications, except the price of course .. .
As usual features and information are shown on one photo.

I also designed a mini music player that connects to your
smartphone thanks to NFC. With this device all the headphones or
earphones that have no NFC integrated smartphone can connect to
wireless! I think it is more convenient to change the track of the
song / answer calls without taking the phone from the pocket, in
addition to this, my old headphones deteriorated to the area of the
wire / jack 3.5, because in the pocket the wire bends and after a time
one of the earphones does not work anymore (maybe it has already
happened to you with your headset or headphones) so as mini player
attaches to clothing (eg) the wire undergo no effort ..
Another advantage is the use during sports, or listen to music
when the phone is charging and that is not beside this one. The
presence of a second battery in the mini player, allows to preserve
the phone battery.

I still kept the same 3.5 jack on the phone because the mini player
can be lost or not charged …

I already prepared another concept with artificial leather shell
resembling that of a human, I have a good feeling when I hold the
phone, tired of plastic :) and also another concept phone foldable …
the end of 2013 is in the news, if you believe in Samsung…

The specs possibly a year ago may sound unnecessarily high but for the coming year is quite plausible. Quad, possibly octo-core, 2GB RAM, 5″ PureMotion 1080p screen, 16MP PureView V1/V2, Stereo microphone, 3.2MP front camera, 3600mAh battery, 64GB + MicroSD.

Wireless charging

Video: Nokia’s Ringtone Maker App for Nokia Lumia WP8

Posted: 08 Dec 2012 12:00 PM PST

This app allows users to choose what portion of their MP3 files they’d like as their ringtone. Quite useful if it’s somewhere in the middle/end instead of relying on just the beginning.

Much better, less convoluted way of using your own songs as ringtones rather than the WP7.5 method.

Clove UK Sold Out of Lumia 920s AGAIN; This Time Before They Even Arrived

Posted: 08 Dec 2012 03:47 AM PST

It seems the demand on the Lumia 920 hasn’t died down one bit seeing how they’ve already sold out fo their second shipment on pre-orers alone. They posted the picture above with the comment:

Just a fraction of what we are shipping today. Working to get all orders out#nokialumia920

Which sounds pretty awesome! I calculate the devices above at 224? (4 per row per box, double stacked = 8 * 28 boxes); and apparently this is just a “fraction” of what’s being shipped today, still pretty cool. I personally can’t wait to see the numbers this quarter; they outa be good.

Weekend Watch: Look at the Cyan and Red Lumia 820 + Black Lumia 920

Posted: 08 Dec 2012 12:00 AM PST

Yash ( @Alsiladka) from over at Unleash the Phones, has posted three videos to his YouTube channel, showing a close up look of the Lumia 820 both in Cyan and Red. (The Red is so nice, I am really loving mine, although the Cyan I played with at the local launch was also pretty :p).

Along with the Lumia 820, he has posted a video of the Lumia 920, this time in Black. I quite like the Black. Everything looks so sleek, and hidden, due to the small body space around the screen, and those ceramic zirconium buttons are concealed, but all in a good way. Anyway, enough babbling from me, go watch the video!
