After having brought you an amazing E75 picture gallery, as well as a comparison of the device with its older brother, the Nokia E71, here is a comparison of both devices’ camera performance. Both handsets sport a 3.2MP camera, with no special lenses (ie no Carl Zeiss lenses like the ones found on Nseries), but with autofocus and an LED flash. Even though, on paper, the specs are pretty similar, the performance and the results speak for themselves. The E71’s pictures are grainy, washed out, have a violet tone to them, whereas the pictures taken by the E75 are more vibrant and more realistic.

Sony Ericsson Twiggy Leaked!
Here are the live pictures of the Sony Ericsson W350 successor. the model number is not known but the device is codenamed Twiggy. FoneArena is amongst the first websites to report this news.
From the pictures, we can conclude the following :
- Flip Down Form Factor
- External Media Keys
- 3.2 Megapixel Camera
The phone appears to have a play/pause button on the external side of the flip but is missing the forward/backward keys which might be some kind of touch sensitive keys that are illuminated upon launching the Media Application. The keypad looks similar to the W350 keyboard but the Twiggy has Call/End keys and keys look bigger. the screen looks bigger too. Continue reading “Sony Ericsson Twiggy Leaked!”

Nokia Music Store Goes Live in India, Sortof
Thanks to Vaibhav of The Symbian Blog who today reported that the Nokia Music Store has been launched today, i checked it out the very same moment and it really did open but the only sad part was that its a soft launch and one cannot download the tracks as of now.
The Music Store has a huge homepage and instead of posting all the screen-shots i chose to stitch them up and give the whole home page in a single picture, which is on your left hand side. This is how the store opens on my N96 in portrait mode.
To access the store all you have to do is to open the Music folder in your device and click on the Music Store Icon, alternatively you can also type in music.nokia.com in your device’s web browser and you shall be directed to the Music Store app by the device itself.
The home page has the image of the latest Bollywood movie New York adorning the top, above which you shall find the options to sign in, join, for help and to take you back to the home page. The music store does not work with your standard Nokia account and you need to create a new one for it, which i feel is a let down as Nokia has missed an oppurtunity to merge all it services under one Nokia(Ovi) Account. So this mean you shall need to click Join Now and sign up for the service, which is a hassle free experience. Continue reading “Nokia Music Store Goes Live in India, Sortof”
