WSJ confirms existence of Nokia Normandy. Device to be revealed at MWC 2014

The rumor mill is still spinning on the codenamed Nokia Normandy device also know as the Nokia X device. This device wouldn't be special at all if it wasn't allegedly running on Android 4.4 KitKat. The phone is supposed to run a stripped down version of KitKat with a UI similar to Windows Phone tile user interface and it would replace the current Nokia Asha range of phones.

It's a little weird that Nokia would do that when they sold its mobile production to Microsoft. Maybe it will be the last device Nokia pushes out while still not under Microsofts rule.

If the rumors are to be trusted the phone should have a 4-inch screen with a 480 x 800 pixel resolution and be power by a dual-core, 1GHz Snapdragon processor eith 512MB of RAM. Pretty good if comared to other low end Android and Asha phones.

The list continues with 4 GB of internal memory, MicroSD card slot, 5-megapixel camera, and a 1500mAh battery. A dual-SIM variant may also be launched available for certain markets.

Many have been waiting for a Android running Nokia but this probably is not the device they had in mind. Even the UI looks nothing like Android at all. With most of the UI looking like the tile interface on Windows Phone. The only thing they could take advantage of are the apps found at the Google Play store.

As seen on the leaked pictures and confirmed by sources very close to Nokia the Normandy device should be available in 6 colors.

This whole situation stil seems a little odd but Wall Street Journal stated that it has confirmed this rumors by a source very close to Nokia and that the Nokia Normandy device is going to be revealed at Mobile World Congress 2014.

iPhone 6 rumors hit the table. Two iPhones again?

This rumor has been circling around quite a bit the last few weeks. Maybe you've heard it that Apple is considering a larger screen size for it's next generation of iPhone/iPhones. No wonder because the mobile market has been heading light speed at that direction so we even have 6.3 inch devices now. Apple is still ''stuck'' at 4 inches which makes some users unhappy. So next logical step would be to increase the screen size of the iPhone line-up. That might be necessarily true but with the Wall Street Journal weighing in on it today, the notion is gaining a bit more credibility

But the rumors don't stop there. This rumor has been hanging in the air for a long time, but now it's gaining more and more traction. Sources say that Apple is preparing not one but TWO iPhone models that will have different screen sizes. One is reported to have a 4.5-inch and the other 5-inch screens.

But wait, the rumors get even juicier here. The previous rumors are connected to the next which talk about a possibility of Apple completely abandoning the polycarbonate casing seen in the iPhone 5c in favor of the tried-and-true metallic body approach of its latest generation.

All this could change and as for Apples current strategy that only the small sized iPhones are for mass production your dreams of a phablet-y Apple smartphone will be put on hold for a while.

Some reports also say that Apple is scheduled to release its next flagship in the summer period as it's been the case with the first four iPhone models. But we wouldn't hold our breaths on that one. So september is still far and there will be a lot of rumors and leaks on the next iPhone model/s so stay tunes to our site and subscribe.

Leaked screenshots show of Windows Phone 8.1 Notification Center

We've been waiting a long time for this one haven't we. Recent screenshot leaks online show of Microsoft's new Windows Phone 8.1 update that the Redmond giant has worked hard the past few months on. As visible on the screenshot a highly requested and fully working Notification center that will allow users to customize and control their app notifications.

The first screenshot shows that the ''Action Center'' as Microsoft is calling it will be a quick swipe from the top of the screen. This will display four quick settings shortcuts like Wi-Fi, Bloetooth, Airplane mode etc. All four are customizable. The Action center will now also display the full date and battery level percentage (no need for third party apps anymore). Also app notifications will be able to be silently updated, moved and deleted from this view.

This latest screenshot leak follows a previous example showing the separate volume controls for Windows Phone 8.1. Microsoft is finally splitting volume controls for ringer / notifications and media / apps in the upcoming update. It’s a minor addition, but a highly requested feature from Windows Phone users. Microsoft is also building its own "Cortana" personal assistant into Windows Phone 8.1. Foursquare, Bing, and other data sources will help power the service, and it’s expected to be unveiled alongside all of Windows Phone 8.1’s features at the Build developer conference in April.
