China — Nokia launched yesterday in Nanjing, China its new Nokia 6208c, a pen-input device. According to Nokia, the Nokia 6208c is a mobile phone specifically designed to cater customers from Asian countries who uses Chinese characters for writing. The Nokia 6209c was ergonomically designed to simulate writing of Chinese characters and messages in the most natural way.

The phone uses a 2.4 inch touch screen as its display. It also has a 3.2 megapixel camera with dual LED flash and 4x digital zoom which makes it a good camera phone.

The Nokia 6208c is expected to available in select markets in early 2009. (more…)

The N82 is Nokia’s ultimate gadget for photography. It’s Carl Zeiss 5MP Tesar lens captures every detail in a click. No other phone that I have tried can compare to the N82’s brilliance in capturing your subject’s details, whether it’s for macro, portrait and other types of shooting modes.

Another notable feature of N82 is it’s geo-tagging capability.  It can utilize your phone’s built-in GPS to embed in the photo the exact location where the photo was taken. I have tried using it with Google Earth and Picasa and it’s perfect. Picasa loads the photo’s geotags into Google Earth and lets Google Earth show where on the

Like I mentioned on my earlier post about the N82, the actual phone I received from Nokia Philippines was the Nokia N95 8GB. But later, I found that N82’s features suits well for me as compared to the N95 (8GB).

I got the Nokia N82, which is my first Symbian Series 60 phone, from the Philippine Blog Awards 2008. The award I got, the Bloggers’ Choice Award’, was sponsored by Nokia Philippines. The phone Nokia originally gave was the Nokia N95 8GB but I traded it with my friend’s Nokia N82.

This is also the second Symbian S60 phone that i’m going to review after that gaming phone I borrowed from a friend.

I’ll reserve the reasons why I opted for N82 instead of the N95 8GB.

If you’re asked to name the top gadgets of the 20th century, what would you have answered? iPod perhaps? Computers? Automatic beer bottle opener and tosser (lol)? Well a similar poll ran on Engadget some months back actually put mobile phone as number one. However if I’m asked the same question right now, as in this very moment, I’d probably put the Nokia Bluetooth Headset BH-604 above it.

The Nokia Bluetooth Headset BH-604 is the best ear gadget I tried so far. It features Hi-Fi sound, with good bass performance which do not compromise the music’s treble levels. The music player and call controls are also placed on strategic locations on the headset which enables its users to remotely control the functions of the mobile phone.

According to Nokia, the Nokia BH-604 can:

Kuya Blogie, who received his N81 (8GB edition) from World of Mobile in UK, lend me the unit last night for review. It’s my first time to use a Symbian Series 60 phone. Most of the phones that I’m using are Sony Ericsson. That’s one reason why I drool over that SE P1i.

I have not explored the phone yet so I’ll give the specifications first.

Upon seeing the Nokia N800 Internet Tablet, the first question that came to me was “where do I place my SIM card?”. But sorry Nokia cellphone fans, this gadget is not a cellphone nor has it any mobile phone capabilities.

At first it was very odd and confusing that a $350 gadget from a leading cellphone manufacturer is not equipped with any phone capabilities. It was even more surprising since Nokia’s N-series boasts a line of feature-packed mobile phones. Since the Nokia N800 Internet Tablet is not a mobile phone, but it does not intend to replace them but to complement them instead.
