Windows 10 Mobile preview support may soon come to another non-Lumia phone

Posted on June 19, 2015June 19, 2015 by Stephen Schenck

Interested in trying out the Windows 10 Mobile Insider Preview? While it may still be a little rough around the edges for use as a daily driver (though that’s a matter of preference), there’s no harm in spending a few days poking around to see what’s new in the latest build, and that’s just what plenty of Windows Phone users have been up to. Head on over to Microsoft’s device compatibility page for the preview, and you’ll see dozens and dozens of handsets supported – by and large, all ...

The Lumia 1020 isn’t “cool” enough for me

Posted on July 22, 2013 by Michael Fisher

The Nokia Lumia 1020 is the most advanced camera phone ever to see the light of day. It’s a stunning upgrade to the Lumia 920 and a fitting sequel to the 808 PureView, one whose potential has been met with fairly universal praise from the Pocketnow team, and from most others in the blogosphere. When it launches on ...

Windows Phone 8 GDR2 update hits more and more phones

Posted on July 18, 2013 by Stephen Schenck

One week ago, we saw Microsoft post a new entry on its Windows Phone 8 update history page, describing the platform’s GDR2 update. While it was arriving from the factory on certain new handset, we had yet to witness the update go out to existing phones. Seeing that page change made us wonder if updates were forthcoming, and it seems that notion was right on the money; let’s take a look at what’s happened. You may have already heard that GDR2 updates were ...

Carrier looking to July availability for Windows Phone 8 GDR2 updates

Posted on June 17, 2013 by Stephen Schenck

We’ve been talking about Microsoft’s plans for the next big Windows Phone 8 update, GDR2, for months now. Some of the picture of how the update would arrive has been clear: for instance, we know that Nokia models will start getting their “Amber” updates next month, and that’s going to be tied-in to the release of GDR2. But with how inconsistent Windows Phone update distribution has become, that’s hardly confirmation that other OEMs would ...

Posted on May 8, 2013 by admin

At Pocketnow, we have a responsibility to try the new, the fresh, and the weird – and that latter swamp is exactly the one Managing Editor Anton D. Nagy waded into with his recent review of the ASUS Fonepad – the tablet with an earpiece. Or the phone with a tablet screen. Whatever you want to call it, we’ve covered it – and Tony has some thoughts about using a seven-inch smartphone in this edition of one of your favorite tech podcasts. After we clear the giant-phone convo, we’ve ...

The Pocketnow Weekly Podcast, Episode 038

Posted on April 4, 2013 by admin

Sometimes you just have to schedule a podcast a few hours before a major news event, and as a result you’ve got to scramble to come up with some valid-sounding speculation about just how useful a Facebook Phone could really be. It’s not like we haven’t tossed this notion around before, but doing it on the air, off-the-cuff, imbues our lives with a certain energy, a certain je ne sais quoi, if you will. Or even if you won’t. Whatever; we have a good time riffing. You’ll listen and like it! Ahem. All that, plus some chat on just how big a copycat LG’s ...

Top 5 Devices To Skip For Spring 2013 (Video)

Posted on March 30, 2013 by admin

With so many devices launched between the fall of 2012 and Spring of 2013, we know many of you want to know what’s worth your money, and what you should skip with no questions asked. Both 2012 and 2013 have been great years for mobile technology, but we have a feature called “Worst Gadgets Ever” for a reason.

We thought we’d help you with the Top 5 devices that we ...

Posted on February 13, 2013 by Michael Fisher

Rarely has the “lull” between trade shows given us so much to talk about. We kicked off the week with an exciting announcement welcoming two new members to the Pocketnow team, and since then we’ve barely been able to keep news, editorials, and videos on the front page long enough to read them. This feed is on fire. From ever-strengthening rumors about the HTC M7 and Samsung Galaxy S IV, to interviews with newcomers like Jolla, to new looks at old friends with BlackBerry 10, to ...
