STYLISH PHONES OF 2008

Nokia 8600 Luna

Coming from the Nokia 8-Series, the 8600 Luna, with its stunning looks, has an appetite to kill the appeal of almost every other handset around it. Its body is made of all exquisite materials. With a complete stainless steel black body and chrome lines running around it, the phone has been designed to grab attention. Except for the display area, there is an encapsulating smoked glass cover that runs around the handset.

The illuminated alphanumeric keypad under the smoked glass really looks good. However, the Luna is quite heavy at 140gm. But again, it is a matter of taste and I for one like phones that weigh a bit but only if they have the build to carry it.

Now the 8600 Luna is a phone that concentrates more on its looks than functionality. The phone is just given the bare necessities when it comes to functionality. So only expect your calls and texting to be taken care of with ease, the rest of it is questionable.

Motorola RAZR 2

Well, without the mention of a Motorola phone this article just wouldn't feel right. The RAZR has been a revolution as far as mobile handset design is considered. Building on that very success, Motorola brought out the RAZR2, which is highly appealing.

Its glossy body is made of a list of materials that went straight over my head when I first heard of them. So well this phone too has its own list of exquisite materials used in its build which could be the reason it weighs over 100 gm. Nevertheless, the phone is a head turner; its large screens of equal size seen on the inside as well as outside are impressive.

There are two versions to the RAZR2; V8 and V9. While the V8 is further available in two variants - 512MB and 2GB. The V9 simply leaves the choice up to you with a memory card slot. The RAZR2 is far more functional compared to the previously mentioned 8600 Luna, which is just all show and no go.

LG KF510

The KF510 is from the LG stable and if you are wondering how in the world an LG appeared in this list then I must remind you that LG does have a lot of credit for its design. The Chocolate handset from LG not only proves the point that the company can design but also that they can come up with innovative ideas. Well those very ideas that were born through the Chocolate handset have been carried forward to the KF510; I'm talking about Haptic Touch Navigation panel.

The KF510 hasn't scored a lot of points for its body material, but it's still got the looks with its really flashy chrome sides and the mesmerizing plain face when the large 2.2-inch screen is dead. The phone features a slim design and weighs just 91gm. The KF510 may not attract many by its looks as much as it would do through its Touch panel animations. The touch panel takes a while to get used to but once you do, it's quite a task getting back to pressing buttons for navigation.

The LG KF510 is one good-looking handset with quite a bundle of features. Its 3.5MP camera is pretty good and connectivity options well covered. The phone has one more feature that makes it different from other phones in this list. While maintaining good looks this phone is priced well within the reach of people. However, though an affordable phone is always good, affordability could also bring down its exclusivity and so may not appeal to some people.

Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte

This one again is from the 8-series of Nokia phones, a line up of premium handsets. The 8800 started it all and till date has quite an appeal. In fact, the company works more on stitching a new outfit for it than make some technical upgrades. From the base 8800, to the Sirocco, Sirocco Gold, Arte, Sapphire Arte and now the Carbon Arte, Nokia 8800 seems like it will soon have quite a wardrobe.

The 8800 was released two years back and has impressed with its full steal body. It's the 8800 that gives the 8600 Luna its classy sliding design. The latest of the 8800; the Carbon Arte does see the use of exotic materials like carbon fiber, titanium, durable stainless steel, and scratch resistant glass. Add to those materials there also has been a bit of functionality upgrades over time, like now you get a 4GB of internal memory, a 3.15MP autofocus camera, and 3G support.

The Carbon Arte in particular is way expensive than its predecessors. This, as I have already mentioned, could sound good or bad but exclusivity comes at a price. The Carbon Arte won't let you down and will attract all the attention that you've paid for it.


HTC Touch Diamond

HTC Touch Diamond is really well-designed phone. It was really surprising to hear the name of the phone and then later on see an imitation of diamond cut edges at the back of the phone. The TouchFLO 3D, and cool backlight from its navigation panel add to its style.

One of the few handsets that has the looks as well as is a powerhouse of convergence. The phone earlier had issues with smooth operations but a recent update has set things flowing pretty well for the device. The TouchFLO 3D is one aspect of the phone that is sure to gain attention while being operated on the Touch Diamond's 2.8-inch screen. The phone as compared to the premium 8-Series of Nokia is a much better pick as far as both looks and functionality go.

Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1

The XPERIA like the Touch Diamond is also a Windows Mobile handset. The XPERIA packs flaunt with it. The large slick screen, edgy keys below the phone, chrome strip running around and the black metal finish all add to the phones charm.

The slide out QWERTY keypad of the phone also has flaunt-value and its silver finished keys are ergonomically cut out to improve typing. The phone is not like most windows mobile handsets in the sense of being bulky. The XPERIA is a premium handset from Sony Ericsson and we will surely see many more X's to follow with the X1 just setting the trend. The Sony Ericsson XPERIA recently launched in India and has a retail price of Rs.45,000. Way too pricey; initial exclusivity will also play a part in its overall flaunt.

Few Words

Today the phones that I've mentioned in the list are phones that demand quite a load of money not for the features they provide but for their style. Style revolves around taste and tastes differ. I'm sure there will be many who may object to an iPhone's exclusion from this list. Well, the iPhone wasn't the best looking thing, the iPhone 3G does gather some points but not enough to feature in this list.

Anyways I've had my say and would like readers to contribute their opinions on the list and their choice of a style phone. Moreover, I can't refrain from not talking about the recently announced Motorola Aura which just steals the show and will do so when it finally releases in the market.

Motorola Aura

After its announcement it just doesn't feel right not to mention about the Motorola Aura. Motorola has done it once again;they've redefined handset design. What beats all is that for the first time you've a screen that's measured in diameters! (As it is circular).

The phone has mechanically operated swivel design that opens like a blade. The phone has this unique-looking stainless steel body and with all those etchings it looks attractive. The Motorola Aura is coming soon and will surely put every other handset to shame. I wonder even if Motorola's very own RAZR2 will be able to stand up against it as far as looks are concerned. Motorola surely have always been trend-setters in their designs.

Best Mobile Phones of 2008

Nokia E71

The Nokia E71 is the first . This phone has been praised by all, not just for its functionality but also for its style and looks. People would hardly look at a QWERTY keypad phone as a style phone but this handset from Nokia has changed that. The Nokia E71 has little wrong with it except for its missing Blackberry Connect, which no Nokia phone will provide henceforth. Large screen, powerful, seamless usability, connectivity and sufficient multimedia features all make the Nokia E71 the best phone. If you thought the E61i from Nokia couldn t get any better, take a look at the E71. However, I still prefer the E61i over the E71.

Blackberry Bold

The Blackberry Bold, which comes in next, has changed the whole outlook of RIM and has done so convincingly. This handset s Business and Multimedia package is a perfect merger of work and play. We all know of the capabilities and productivity of Blackberry phones. The Blackberry Bold is a great-looking handset, having great flaunt-value and is a class apart. It has everything that s expected from a phone of its calibre, except for a poor image capturing optic, which shouldn t really matter.

The phone has great video capabilities; any image or video looks good on its high-res large screen. The phone has DivX and XviD capabilities. The Bold has a powerful processor under its hood that can execute most of the mobile tasks that you would want your phone to do. The Blackberry Bold is steeply priced but it s not for nothing, the power it exudes in the little package is amazing.

Apple iPhone 3G

Speaking of packages nothing comes even close to the iPhone 3G that launched in India this year. The iPhone is not just about superb interface and multi-touch but its iTunes and App store lets you enjoy a wholesome experience. The inbuilt memory of the iPhone comes as a plus point to store lots of media and enjoy it while on the move.

Some of the basics that were left out and were a cause of concern can now be fixed with several of those apps created. The phone is more like a platform for developers to harness and the public to enjoy. Style comes along with its popularity, thanks to Apple s marketing team. Another reason for the marketing team to feel proud is the sales figures of the phones, which are running past many mobile manufacturers numbers. Three cheers to the iPhone 3G!

Samsung INNOV8 i8510

The Samsung INNOV8 is seriously an INNOV8ive mobile device. I would go to the extent of saying that it is this year s Nokia N95 8GB. The Nokia N95 8GB till date is the best buy and my recommendation to anyone who has the budget. The INNOV8 is not a style phone but a convergence device. It costs an arm and will definitely not appeal to all. Practically speaking, a digicam, PMP and a phone separately would do all for the kind of dough you d spend on this one. The very fact that it can do all of it pretty decently is an achievement in itself. Samsung with this handset has proved that it is out to capture Nokia s market share.

HTC Touch Diamond

The HTC Touch Diamond has earned its respect but has done so recently. The phone when launched was sluggish and got thrashed for not living up to the hype. But after that the phone was sent back to the RND department and the new firmware did the magic. The phone now works smooth and is really a great handset.This phone has shown what we can expect from not just HTC with its TouchFLO 3D but also Windows Mobile. With Windows Mobile 6.5 just round the corner and 7 to release later next year, the possibilities are endless. HTC Touch Diamond is the first Windows Mobile 6.1 mobile to release and given its initial downslide, HTC has worked on it to gain a spot as the best among the other mobile phones mentioned in this article.

Motorola ZINE ZN5

The Motorola ZINE ZN5 is another phone that finds a place in this list. It s not the best 5MP shooter available in the market but it s good in its own way. The camera is quick and thanks to all the Kodak algorithms, it captures images well and easily without taxing the user s capabilities. The phone is also a good multimedia device with good sound quality and image sharing. The ZINE ZN5 has Wi-Fi, which provides one with quick connectivity, something that also adds to its speciality. However, its incompetency to multitask is like a speed breaker in the phone.

Closing comments of 2008

We have come to the end of this year that has seen lots happening in the mobile industry; be it the number phones that were released or the cell phone technology popularity. But I can say with conviction that the biggest thing that happened was the launch of 3G service, which gives us a glimpse of the bright 2009 in the mobile industry.

NOKIA N97 VS iPHONE

From the desktop to the laptop and now to your pocket, the Nokia N97 is the most powerful, multi-sensory mobile computer in existence....Jonas Geust, Vice President, heading Nokia Nseries.

True. You can only say whoa! and you can only feel out of place after knowing about Nokia N97, the latest touchscreen mobile phone from Nokia. My first reaction after seeing the mobile phone was, what will the self proclaimed, unnecessarily sophisticated, limited featured Apple iPhone will do? I wonder if iPhone users are thinking of dumping iPhone in the garbage box and opt for Nokia N97 nextyear. If not, lemme tell you why you should.

5. 5MP camera with Dual-LED and VGA recording at 640×480
6. A-GPS enabled and an electronic compass that is always aware of your location
7. 3.5mm plug and bluetooth with A2DP

Conversation between iPhone and Nokia N97

1. Voice Dialing

iPhone: Bluetooth headset, Bluetooth $600 phone and there is no voice dialing in me. Yes you heard me right.

Nokia N97: Huh. I don’t care about such silly things. It is there in me as if I I never lost it.

2. One-push speed dialing

iPhone: There is no equivalent of the push-and-hold speed dialing in me that exist on most other phones. Instead, I have a Favorites list gives you a quick(ish) access to the most frequently dialed numbers.

Nokia N97: What were you doing while getting manufactured? Couldn’t you scream louder? I have that facility.

3. Bluetooth DUN Profile

iPhone: Unlike nearly every other Bluetooth enabled cell phone, I will not share internet connection with other devices (e.g. a laptop). In fact, out of roughly 25 common Bluetooth profiles for cell phones, I only support two. And believe me its not a hardware fault.

Nokia N97: Are you serious! Are you really serious! Lol. This is 21st century. Please wake up.

4. Saving Images/Files

iPhone: We have a gallery here of iPhone wallpapers. I browse to it on the iPhone. I find my image I want. And then I wait, I can’t download it? I can’t choose to set it as wallpaper? I have to go to my Mac, browse to the URL again, download the photo, purchase and install iLife, import the photo into iPhoto, set it to sync with the iPhone, open up iTunes, hit sync, then browse to it on my iPhone and set as wallpaper. Its not that tough you know.

Nokia N97: Haha. True. You can do it normally from my phone. Get a life you iPhone. I mean these things are so common that I don’t even care to look for it. It is there.

5. Flash

iPhone: Seriously. There was no flash support in me until recently. But anyway, even when using YouTube, I cant save the clip on the phone. Not much of a trouble no?

Nokia N97: I had flash support right from the time when N was spelt. I have it now too.

6. Camera Options

iPhone: I had asked them, where is my zoom. I have a 2MP camera. But that is not sufficient my users say. But no zoom, even I protest.

Nokia N97: Lol. I don’t complain. I have a 5MP camera with Zeiss lens and LED flash and zoom. Anyway, what about your Video support (winks)

7. Video Options

iPhone: I can not shoot a video. But I can play a video.

Nokia N97: Lol. I can shoot at a DVD quality movie recording. And 16:9 ratio. Okay. I will not bug you any more. I know you are way behind.

8. Copy/Paste Option

iPhone: I can’t give the copy paste facility to people. I would have loved so many things to be included, Alas.

Nokia N97: Don’t talk to me about such petty issues. You don’t even have message forwarding options. I wonder what actually do you have!

9. Touchscreen and Keypad

iPhone: I have a touch screen that is superior to you in every respect.

Nokia N97: That is because people haven’t used me yet. The most physically immediate stand-out feature of me is the kick-out full QWERTY keyboard, hidden behind a 3.5-inch widescreen 16:9 touch display that tilts smartly above the keys. Both control methods neatly coexist and are tailored to ensure every experience. And don’t tell me now that I am bragging.

10. SMS

iPhone: I accept defeat here. I can’t forward the SMS. I can’t send phone numbers via SMS text message. I can not save VCard and contacts to my phone contacts. I can’t click on MMS notification to go to Safari to view.

Nokia N97: I always knew I am intimidating. But I pity your inabilities now. These are basic features. You can get them even in my mediocre brothers.

11. Bluetooth Stereo Headsets

iPhone: I am more of an essential kind. Bluetooth stereo headsets work perfectly well when you are on a call. But due to a redundant bluetooth stack, you can not stream your music. I suppose you are not a music lover *smug look*.

Nokia N97: I know I know. When you have nothing to gain from, you pretend as if there is nothing to lose. Hah!

12. Capacity

iPhone: Hey I have a 8 GB/ 16 GB capacity. Do you know that? Can you beat me on that?

Nokia N97: No I can not. Because you win here with your ignorance. I have a built-in 32GB memory and so effectively you can plug in another 32 GB of MicroSDHC and make it 64 GB. More than what a laptop can hold you know. Still in a mood to fight?

13. Geo Location

iPhone: I have maps with GPS and I have plenty of other apps that can help anyone to find anything. Can you compete?

Nokia N97: Nopes. I don’t like intruders. I am location-savvy, automatically sensing where it is at any given time via A-GPS. The benefit being that you’ll be able to tap into local services with ease and share your social location with friends minus any extra fiddling or fuss.

In Conclusion

Despite all the fun and drama, I am really mesmerized by the features that Nokia N97 offers. It is the first and true next gen multimedia computers inside mobile phone. a closing note I feel, only two people will not go for Nokia N97 leaving iPhone. One who considers only the look of things (then iphone is still a better option than Nokia N97, cause the latter looks still Nokia-ish) and Steve Jobs.

In Case Of Emergency (ICE)

Request to circulate....

We all carry our mobile phones with hundreds of names/ numbers stored in its memory but yet nobody, other than ourselves, knows which of these Numbers belong to our near and dear ones? In case we are involved in an Accident or had a heart attack and the people attending us get hold of our Mobile phone but don't know which number to call to inform our family members.Yes, there are many numbers stored but which one is the Contact person in Case of an emergency? For this reason, we must have one or more telephone Numbers stored under the name ICE (In case of Emergency) in our mobile Phones. Recently, the concept of "ICE" is catching up quickly.It is simple, an important method of contact during emergency situations. As cell phones are carried by majority of the population, just store the Number of a contact person or person who should be contacted at during

Emergency as ICE" (meaning In Case of Emergency).The idea was thought up by a paramedic who found that when they went to the scenes of accidents, there were always mobile phones with patients, but

They didn’t know which number to call.He therefore thought that it would be a good idea if there was a nationally recognized name for this purpose. Following a disaster in London, the East Anglican Ambulance Service has launched a national "In case of Emergency (ICE)” campaign. In an emergency situation, Emergency Service personnel and Hospital staff would then be able to quickly contact your next of kin, by simply dialing the number stored as "ICE”. Please forward this. It won't take too many "forwards" before everybody will know about this. It really could save your life, or put a loved one's mind at rest.

For more than one contact name simply enter ICE1, ICE2 and ICE3 etc. A great idea that will make a difference!

Let's spread the concept of ICE by storing an ICE number in our mobile phones today! Please forward to all your nearest and dearest....

Thanks & Regards

Sony's Reply to Apple's IPhone

A phone that is better than iPhone in features and performance. Sony's newest phone with Touch screen called XPERIA X1. The X1 would be the first product in the XPERIA series that Sony plan to introduce in coming months.

A New Experience:
I believe that is what meant by XPERIA. A new experience in smart phones that all started with the iPhone. The standard feature of such phones is a touch screen with loads of features. This phone also has such a screen and it is believed that Sony developed a new user interface called “panel” for the Windows Mobile OS 6 exclusively for this particular phone.

This interface shows nine tiny tiles that represent individual application windows. When touched, they open up to display the application using a smooth animated style. The new experience also comes with a full QWERTY keyboard, 3-inch widescreen display capable of producing a resolution of 800 * 480 pixels. This phone also feature a 3.2 Mega Pixel camera that iPhone really lacked.

XPERIA also featureS the brand new arc slider design that easily slides the display part over the QWERTY keyboard. The other features are: full multimedia capability, full internet capability with wi-fi, an internal memory of 400MB, a MicroSD slot, Bluetooth, A2DP and aGPS.
Sony expects to start selling this phone from second half of this year.
