Lumia 805
01/04/2012 23:58
Well doesn’t Nokia like to reuse designs? They’ve adopted the same N9 polycarbonate shell for the Lumia 800 and 900 and now it’s rumored that they’ll keep at it, for a Symbian model with a great camera. Apparently, they’re also fond of the Nokia X7 design, that might be reused to create the Nokia Lumia 805, as shown in the render below.
Nokia Lumia 805 Render Looks Very Much like the Nokia X7
This images surfaced on Baidu, a Chinese web service and search engine. Nokia Lumia 805 is supposed to feature a 3.9 inch ClearBlack WVGA display, 16GB of internal memory, a 1450 mAh battery and a 12 megapixel camera wit Carl Zeiss Optics and dual LED flash. The X7 had a 4 inch display, 8MP camera and 1200 mAh battery, so the upgrade is welcome. Nokia shouldn’t be ashamed of reusing the design, as the X7 was the coolest Symbian phone I played with, in terms of design.
What I didn’t like about it is that not all 4 corners hid speakers, as it was rumored before its launch, so maybe this time we’ll get an uber music phone with 4 corner speakers. What do you say? Is this just a mere render or a real new Nokia Windows Phone unit ?

tablet concept
01/04/2012 23:55
Designer Tristan came up with a Nokia tablet concept that we’ve seen before, or at least the form factor looks familiar. I’m talking about the Nokia Lumia Coffee Tab, that looks like an enlarged Nokia N9 and runs Windows 8. This model is placed near coffee beans on a table, so instead of having a coffee table advertised we have a coffee tablet.
Nokia Lumia Coffee Tab Tablet Runs Windows 8
The Lumia slate comes with a 1.4 GHz CPU, 512 MB of RAM, 16 up to 64 GB of storage, a 9.7 inch AMOLED ClearBlack display with 1280 x 800 pixel resolution and an 8 megapixel camera. There’s also a 2 megapixel camera upfront as well as WiFi and 3G among the specs, in the connectivity area. The device seems to be bundled with the Nokia Purity headphones and its specs remind me more of a classic Windows Phone handset than a tablet from 2012. Well, this Nokia tablet design isn’t totally impossible and since the Finns already have 3 handsets with the exact same design, why wouldn’t they apply it to tablets, too?
I’m also hoping that the Lumia Windows 8 Tab will not be bulky, as it seems pretty thick here. Expect the real thing to pop up this summer at Nokia Connection 2012, as hinted by some Nokia officials a while ago.

Nokia Touch and Type Design With Nokia Belle OS
01/04/2012 23:53
It’s been a while since I’ve see a Nokia device with a portrait sliding QWERTY form factor… let alone one with a touchscreen display and a keyboard of this type. Meet the Nokia Touch & Type True concept, created by FireDragon and published on Mynokiablog.com. The handset is supposedly from the C2-06 range and it comes with a main home button below the display.
Nokia Touch and Type Design With Nokia Belle OS on Board, Sliding QWERTY Keyboard
This dream Nokia is pocketable, user-friendly, made for single hand use, it has an optical trackpad and a 3.2 inch touchscreen display. The phone runs Nokia Belle on top of a 1GHz processor, 512MB of RAM and 4 or 8 GB of internal storage, plus a microSD card slot. A 5/8 megapixel camera is on board, as well as a front cam, for videocalling. And finally, the Nokia Touch & Type slider comes with GPS, WiFi, USB otg, a kickstand and a 1700 mAh battery, that should provide a long time of functioning.
Know that the camera on this device is able to scan a business card with readable content and the main appeal of the phone you see here is the ability to type very fast on its portrait QWERTY keyboard. The designer dismisses landscape sliders, finding them annoying and disturbing when traveling and during meetings.

Diamond is a concept
01/04/2012 23:50
created by Richard Malachowski, from China, who envisions a device with sharp edges and corners and overall and aerodynamic and aggressively shaped smartphone. This Nokia design also involves a triangle-shaped camera sensor and a back side that seems to sport a wood surface. The device may have the many corners of a diamond, but still it’s able to sit right on a flat surface.
Nokia Diamond Has Sharp Corners, Triangle Shaped Camera
With so many corners on the Nokia Diamond one would expect it to sting the user’s hand, to be honest. Also, it can feel a bit uncomfortable in the palm of the user, but at least it’s unique in form factor and it looks very light and slim. I have no real specs for this model, so I suppose we’re dealing with a 4 inch touch display smartphone with Clear Black AMOLED technology, Symbian Belle or MeeGo as the OS of choice, 1 GB of RAM, a 1GHz processor and a 5 or 8 megapixel camera at the back.
The volume buttons on this baby also seem to be wooden, just like the battery cover, while the rest of the phone might as well be polycarbonate. Of course, the wood-like side can be an imitation, but I doubt Nokia would resort to such materials. In the end I see this as a fashion phone, considering its shape, name, materials and form factor.

colorful concept phone
01/04/2012 23:45
Deviantart member Qromodynmc created a very colorful Nokia concept phone, dubbed YosePhone, that can be seen below. The key here is borrowing some element from the Nokia N8 and the N9 maybe and another important factory is asymmetry. Notice hone the left side is different from the right one, especially at the back and so is the lower area and upper side.
Nokia Colorful Concept Uses Asymmetry to Stand out
I can see this as the long awaited follow-up to the Nokia N8, with a potent 16 megapixel camera (it has been done by HTC Titan II at CES 2012), dual LED or maybe dual Xenon flash and some powerful speakers. The screen seems like an edge to edge affair, maybe a 4 inch Super AMOLED screen with a qHD or even HD resolution. Other than that I’m expecting a dual core processor inside and maybe some of that promised Symbian Donna action I’ve been hearing about.
What would you want to see on this phone and what other Nokia model do you think it resembles? Also, what OS do you fancy on it? As I said, I see it as Symbian Donna material…
