Nokia Announced Symbian Anna Smartphone - Nokia 500



Nokia announced its latest Symbian Anna smartphone which is Nokia 500. Nokia 500 is based on the specifications of Nokia C5-03. Like Nokia C5-03 it has 5MP rear camera built in facility which gives a sharper and clear images. Nokia 500 Pakistan has 3.2 inches TFT capacitive touchscreen with 16M colors which shows your text and images more clearly than Nokia C5-03. Its 1 GHz processor gives better and more powerful performance than Nokia C5-03. Nokia 500 has loaded with 2GB internal and up to 32GB extensible memory allows you to store your documents like music, videos, games and pictures in this single device for lifetime. Durable battery fitted in this smartphone provides talk time of up to7 h (2G) / up to 5 h (3G). Compare Nokia 500 Price in Pakistan with Nokia C5-03 which is bit higher.

Nokia Lumia 800 How can saves on 3G downloads compared to iOS and Android

Every day we’re finding more reasons why we love our Nokia Windows Phone and we’ve just found a new one, as the great Windows Phone 7.5 OS has managed to automatically help us to save money on our monthly phone bill. Join us as we show you what we’ve found on our Nokia Lumia 800.

When it comes to using our smartphones, we always try to be as careful as possible not to exceed our minutes, texts and data usage each month, but with so much to say and do with our Nokia phones, it’s not always the easiest thing to do. Well now our Nokia Lumia 800 has stepped in to help us out.

While we were sitting on the train home from yesterday, we thought we’d catch up on downloading the latest apps and songs we’ve been meaning to try out on our Nokia Windows Phone. So we quickly activated 3G on our handset, got connected and got down to business at the Windows Phone Marketplace.

As usual it hadn’t crossed our minds that downloading so much content might push us over our monthly limit (hey, we’re stupid like that), so we were busily downloading when Windows Phone 7.5 decided to save us from ourselves and stepped in with a great little feature that we hadn’t spotted until now.

Any time you try and download a large file over 3G on your Nokia Windows Phone, the Windows Phone 7.5 OS automatically steps in and puts the largest files in a queue to be downloaded when you’re in range of a Wi-Fi connection, saving you money and letting you download the file faster.

Of course you might be more sensible about your downloads then we seem to manage, but for us this great feature on our Lumia 800 is our new best friend and we can’t wait to see how much money we’ll have saved on our monthly bill (which we’ll no doubt then somehow manage to go and spend on something else).

Nokia Working on Charge-less Mobile Phone

In order to attain charger less world, Nokia is working on a mobile phone that would be charged wirelessly through ambient radio signals that are available in atmosphere. Markku Rouvala, a researcher from the Nokia Research Centre, in Cambridge, U.K told MIT’s Technology Review that ambient electromagnetic radiation – emitted from Wi-Fi transmitters, cell-phone antennas, TV masts, and other sources – could be converted into enough electrical current to keep a battery topped up

The team at Cambridge is working on a prototype device that could harvest up to 50 milliwatts of power from the electromagnetic soup – which is sufficient to trickle charge a switched off phone.

Current versions can scavenge 3 to 5 milliwatts. To increase the amount of power that can be harvested, Nokia is focusing on harvesting many different frequencies. “It needs a wideband receiver,” says Rouvala, to capture signals from between 500 megahertz and 10 gigahertz–a range that encompasses many different radio communication signals.”

MIT noted that historically, energy-harvesting technologies have only been found in niche markets, powering wireless sensors and RFID tags in particular. If Nokia’s claims stand up, then it could push energy harvesting into mainstream consumer devices.

Rouvala said that he envisaged commercial products could be launched in three to four years time.

Nokia Phones to Recharge Automatically, Soon!

Soon, your Nokia cell phone will never run out of battery, while you are on the go.

New Scientist figured out that Nokia has filed for a US Patent for a phone that recharges as the phone user moves.

Some watches already use similar pattern for generating energy – they use circular frames on back end of dial, that keeps moving to generate energy.

Nokia thinks that there can a phone in which the heavier components, such as the radio transmitter circuit and battery, are supported on a sturdy frame. This frame can move along two sets of rails, one allows it travel up and down, the other side to side.

Strips of piezoelectric crystals sit at the end of each rail and generate a current when compressed by the frame. So as the user walks, or otherwise moves the phone, the motion generates electricity. This charges a capacitor which in turn trickles charge into the battery, keeping it topped up.
