Admittedly that’s still miles behind Apple and Samsung (33.7% and 33.6% respectively), but it’s nice to see some improvement. It’s also interesting to see how badly HTC are doing in the US given how much they’re trying with Android and int run giving WP the cold shoulder, perhaps the future is in WP? Thanks for the tip Alvester

Whilst Finland usually has to wait significantly longer to get their own flagship Nokia devices, the wait isn’t too long for the gigantic Nokia Lumia 1520, 2520 and the petite Asha 503. All said to be due on the 4th of December 2013 by NokConv Finland.
Cheers Janne for the tip! |
| Video: Impressive app, “Smart Resize” – Winner of the Nokia Capture app competition Posted: 01 Nov 2013 12:59 AM PDT Here’s a Nokia Promo for an app called Smart Resize which I thought was actually pretty cool. I thought it was going to crop intelligently like squares and rectangles but what it does is allow you to take a picture, keep the important subject in that picture (or remove an unsightly object) whilst you shrink the rest of the image around it. Best to watch the video rather than my explanation. I just tried it and I’m really impressed.
