We could name half a dozen action cams that you could strap to your helmet as you leap about the city (ok, your bedroom. Ok, your nearest park's jungle gym) filming your pursuits, but as Nokia shows in this video (made with those adrenaline-estros at Red Bull), you may as well grab your nearest gadget featuring built-in optical image stabilisation and use that instead. That'll be one of those colourful Nokia Lumia 920s, then. Read More >>
Don't hand your iPhone to Nokia CEO Stephen Elop. During an interview on Finnish TV show Hjalliksen kanssa, an interviewer made exactly that mistake, and is now short one functional iPhone, because Elop threw that sucker straight on the floor. Read More >>

A helicopter flyover of a crowded urban city can make for an awesome and dramatic establishing shot in a film. But an expensive one, too, making them impractical for most amateur filmmakers. Or so we assumed until we saw the fantastic flyover footage Paul Wex was able to create using Nokia's Here mapping service, and a hell of a lot of patience. Read More >>

You might call it a lack of ambition. Or you could just call it being very pragmatic. At a recent roundtable with reporters in Tokyo, the head of Sony's mobile business professed his desire to be the No. 3 player in smartphones behind Apple and Samsung. BlackBerry's CEO said the same thing heading up to the launch of BlackBerry Z10. Breaking the Sampple duopoly is no easy task, given that IDC says the two companies account for more than 50 per cent of smartphones sold worldwide. Read More >>
Windows Phone is struggling to get the big markee apps on-board, and Nokia's painfully aware of the fact that apps make a platform. So, what does it do to try and convince Instagram to get its arse in gear and make a WP8 app?

In most ways, the Lumia 720 is exactly what you'd expect. It's a budget phone made like a Lumia. The surprise, though, is that the camera is actually pretty damn good—which is a miracle compared to what you find on most cheap phones. Read More >>
Nokia has announced that it is to share its Drive, Maps and Transit apps with other Windows Phone handsets. Under the Here moniker, users of non-Nokia handsets will finally be able to use the Finns' excellent navigation software. Read More >>
Along with a couple of low-end phones we won't bore you about, Nokia showed off the Lumia 520 and 720 at MWC today. That smaller-numbered device is actually Nokia's cheapest Windows Phone 8 offering, with the 720 being slightly higher up on the food chain, somewhere between the 620 and 820. Read More >>
Along with the HTC One, a zillion new smartphones are going to be announced next week at Mobile World Congress, each promising camera advancements that may or may not live up to the hype. Before we get there, though, we wanted to take stock of how good the cameras are in the smartphones you can buy now. Here's how the flagships measure up. Read More >>

Nokia's CEO Stephen Elop has said the company is looking to "broaden its portfolio" in the future, with the long anticipated move into tablets perhaps about to happen.
