Nokia N5 Images Leaked

When Nokia revealed the N9, the N950, and more recently the Sea Ray, most of us started to think that the company will maintain focus on the high-end smartphone segment for a while. With low-end Symbian smartphones currently available in the market, it wouldn't have been wrong for someone to think that these phones will be the last lot of mid-range Symbian devices. Now, here is a handset which will mark the entry of the Symbian Anna platform into this particular market segment. This new handset will be known as the Nokia N5. Images of this new handset have now leaked, displaying the handset in all its glory.

There is still some confusion over the operating system of the handset. While the source claims that this handset could run on Symbian Anna, it looks strikingly similar to the MeeGo platform. The hardware aspect of the Nokia N5 points towards a decently priced handset. The display looks like a 3.2", and there's a neatly placed 5 MP camera on the back. Physical buttons are present on the front, which is a good addition on mid-range handsets. A volume rocker is placed on the right hand side of the handset, and the left side is left plain. The device is currently a prototype, so the actual announcement could be made in a few days. Hopefully, the device will be launched soon, unlike the Nokia N9 which will not be launched in India initially. Also, according to the source, an N6 and N7 are on the cards, which could possibly be revamped versions of the N5.

The images show the N5 posing green and black colours. The user interface has seen improvements as compared to the current Symbian S60 v5 seen on most low-end Symbian smartphones. This clearly shows that the company is not merely focused on preparing flagship handsets; emphasis is being given the low-end market as well.

Here are a few more leaked images of the N5:

Nokia N9 first hands-on

The N9 has arrived. Functional units of Nokia's long-awaited MeeGo smartphone have finally landed into our eager hands and we've got a gallery of images to provide you with below. What we can say from our first experience is that we're in the presence of a fantastically designed device with a gorgeous AMOLED screen and some highly responsive performance. Hold tight as we're updating our fuller impressions after the break, where you'll soon be treated to our first hands-on video with the Nokia N9.

Update: Hands-on video plus a live demonstration of the N9's ability to pair Bluetooth devices over NFC (very impressive!) can now be found after the break.



The N9 UI, as you'll have learned from the product announcement, is Nokia's Harmattan skin atop MeeGo 1.2, which is built around three core home views. The central one is your app organizer / launcher, to one side of which you have a notifications and activities section -- which will be populated by phone calls, calendar alerts, and social network updates -- and to the other you get a live app switcher. That trio is navigable in a carousel fashion, meaning that you can keep cycling through all three by flicking your finger in one direction. Double-tapping the screen wakes the phone up and then you can unlock it with a swipe in any direction. Similar swipes, starting from one edge of the screen and going to the other, allow you to exit apps into the home screen. What we can say about all these aspects of the interface is that they're done exceedingly well and make the somewhat aged OMAP3630 processor look terrific. Fluid animations are evident throughout, navigation is natural, and this marks a major advance over anything else Nokia has given us on the software front in terms of touch-based UI.

Physically, the N9 feels about as good as a device built out of plastic can do. Nokia's devoutly calling it polycarbonate in order to highlight that this isn't just any old plastic, it's a high-grade variety that inspires confidence in its durability while also having the sharp looks to keep aesthetes happy as well. The whole phone is essentially built into the external shell, which does mean the battery isn't user-replaceable and there's no microSD expandability, but at least you can hot-swap the MicroSIM (yes, Micro) card without needing to reboot the handset.

The Clear Black AMOLED display is truly a sight to behold, with stunning viewing angles, a curved Gorilla Glass front, and some pretty excellent (for AMOLED) performance out in the sunlight. We compared it side by side with a Super LCD-equipped Incredible S and the N9 more than held its own. The screen is easily one of this new phone's great strengths, though we'd argue the intuitive UI, responsiveness, and eye-catching industrial design are pretty high up on that list too. All in all, we're highly impressed by what Nokia has put together here, though the N9 does prompt us to ask why the company has opted against making MeeGo its long-term smartphone OS of choice. What we've seen today is a damn fine smartphone with some very neat ideas, one which certainly merits the title of being Nokia's flagship. Or it will do, when it launches later in the year. 

Nokia Aeon

Nokia is brewing a new concept mobile phone called the Nokia Aeon. The concept is the newest design features a touchscreen phone that covers the entire surface area of the mobile phone. So everything’s a touchscreen!
The concept of Aeon as it combines two touch panels that are incorporated in full-cell power pack. Electronic connectivity between the handset and created a built-in into the panel to be used separately. When combined, a single panel can be used to display and the other as the keypad. Because the buttons are virtual, Aeon can play them instantly between a numeric pad for dialing the phone number, the base text for messaging, or even media player controls.
There’s hope for cool ideas from Nokia will be the concept of this product, namely that the phone is a product of “wearable” – if the user can separate one from the display panel Aeon – and set it up like a watch or worn like a badge.
More than just a phone, Aeon might be a local wireless network to transmit data obtained from sensors such as monitoring equipment to show signs of health of the wearer’s mobile phone. Wuihh, day gini with existing technology in one tool can do whatever dikonvergensikan for all needs!

Nokia To Launch A WP7 QWERTY Phone?

Nokia announced its tie up with Microsoft to produce Windows Phone 7 handsets with Nokia's hardware a few months ago, and the first Nokia WP7 device is expected by the end of this year (Q4). While nobody has any clue as to what device it could be, assumptions are already being made as to what Nokia could offer. For the time being it seems like the first device would be a basic touchscreen slab; very typical of the WP7 platform.

The Windows Phone 7 platform has a couple of QWERTY phones, though not as much as you would find in Android. If latest reports are to be believed, Nokia could be preparing a Windows Phone handset with a similar form factor. This info comes from an event held by Nokia a couple of days ago, where a company representative disclosed the company's plans to snatch the business smartphone market, which is almost dominantly held by RIM's BlackBerry. Though the representative did not directly confirm a QWERTY WP7 device by Nokia, it is almost clear that Nokia could have it all planned.

2011 will be a very busy year for Nokia with a couple of flagships to be launched, not to mention the launch of the company's first WP7 handset. The company is holding a Nokia Connection event on June 21st, where the company will supposedly show off some new Symbian Anna handsets, and probably announce the WP7 phone that has been talked about for quite a long time now.

Nokia's latest smartphone fails to impress market watchers

Nokia aims to connect the 'next billion' people using its new handsets with Windows software available from the autumn. Photograph Alberto Estevez

Nokia's chief executive Stephen Elop left the stage quickly after his speech last week, when he set out how the Finnish mobile phone company planned to build the "third ecosystem" in the fast-growing smartphone market.
He had been was speaking in London, and said he was confident that in partnership with Microsoft – which from this autumn will supply its Windows Phone software to top-end Nokia handsets – the company would continue its drive to connect the "next billion" people to the mobile network.
Richard Windsor, global technology marketing analyst at broker Nomura, was unimpressed. "Well, I'm still selling the stock," he said as he watched the Canadian leave the room.
He is not alone: analysts around the world are marking the company's stock down. They reckon it will make a loss for at least the next two quarters and that its mobile business will shrink by 20% this year and then remain at about the same size for the next two years.
Meanwhile the company's credit rating has been cut by Fitch and Moody's rating agencies to just a notch above junk. If Nokia were a European country, you would be thinking of Greece, not Finland.
The company's market value is now $24bn (£15bn) having fallen to its lowest level since the first half of 1998. In June 2000 it hit a peak of $285bn.
It is a shaming situation for a company that was once the Goliath of the mobile market. Now it seems to be careening unstoppably downhill as operators and customers shun its internet-enabled smartphones, based on the Symbian system that Elop intends to kill off. At the same time he is struggling both to downsize the company and speed up product development.
"We believe the new guidance [from Nokia] is a strong indication that our worst-case scenario for the company, of accelerating market share and gross margin decline, is crystallising," said Bernstein analyst Pierre Ferragu. "The Nokia brand is at risk of losing visibility and the opportunity to create a third ecosystem based on Windows Phone is rapidly vanishing."
The only light in the darkness is that the company has been discussing the sale of its share of Nokia Siemens Networks, a joint venture building telecoms infrastructure, which represents about 30% of revenues but is barely profitable. However, if that succeeds it could make the company vulnerable to a destabilising bid.
The reason for Nokia's latest dose of financial pain is that analysts have caught wind of the fact that it is cutting prices – both on its smartphones, which represent about 25% of its handset sales but generate some 50% of mobile revenue and the cheaper handsets which sell at a rate of about 75m a quarter.
At this low end of the phone market, Nokia has been losing share rapidly to cheaper Asian rivals. In May it warned it would miss sales and profit targets, blaming tough competition.
Nomura's Windsor thinks the group has little time to turn around because the smartphone sector will see its fastest growth this year and in 2012, and then level off. "After that, all you're really left with is competition, trying to get market share from rivals."
The promise that Microsoft's Windows Phone, a new mobile operating system launched in October 2010, will spark a whole new ecosystem to rival Apple's iPhone and Google's Android is viewed with scepticism by many. "Windows Phone offers a nice experience, but nobody has bought it," said Windsor. "There are nine different devices being offered on 60 operators, and we calculate 1.3m have shipped." (Microsoft said 2m shipped in the first three months, but has not said how many have been activated.)
Windsor reckons Nokia's Windows Phone device, expected in the autumn, will therefore be "irrelevant, because it will be an expensive device, and the top-end market is effectively lost to Apple's iPhone and Android phones such as HTC. The only chance for Nokia is in the mid-tier of smartphones selling at about $200 to $300 – but we won't see those for at least 12 months."
During that time, he thinks, cheap Android smartphones made in China will take over the bottom end of the smartphone and "feature phone" market.
Dean Bubley, who runs the research company Disruptive Analysis, said: "I think the ecosystem will happen, but in a different timescale to Nokia's revenues. Developers are starting projects to write apps for Windows Phone. And there can be more than just Apple and Android in the ecosystem space. There are on the internet – Google, Facebook, Skype – so why not on mobiles? It all depends what they can show off by the first half of next year. If I were Elop I would be concentrating on getting a phone out really quickly."

Nokia leaks C2-06 Touch and Type accidentally, dual-SIM fans rejoice

The first dual-SIM member of the Nokia Touch and Type family has just made its unexpected public debut. The Nokia C2-06 (or C2-02 according to some sources) appeared on the Nokia Conversation blog, starring on an image dedicated to the IPv6 transition of the company's OVI browser.
As you can imagine, given the nature of the leak, there were no phone specifications mentioned, but this image is more than enough to confirm the existence of the handset.
Before this confirmation, there was always the chance that the leaked prototype we saw earlier was just a dead project that will never see the light of day. Well, it's not.
Now this "accidental" appearance of the unannounced C2-06 could be either a PR move by Nokia attempting to generate more interest to the Ovi browser article, or just an honest mistake, but whatever it is, we are sure the dual-SIM fans around the world will be glad it happened.
It was only recently, that we saw the first Dual SIM phones by Nokia, the Nokia X1-01 and C2-00, finally ship.
So how about an official announcement now so we know what exactly to be looking forward to?
