The Lumia 2520 isn't Nokia's First Tablet, Check Out the Lost Ones Here!

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Last week, Nokia announced its “first” Windows tablet, the Lumia 2520.
 (Not many would’ve even given that aspect attention.) This means that 
while the Lumia 2520 is the company’s first tablet in years, it is far 
from being the first one.<br />
If you’re a Nokia fan, you already know about following devices that 
were marketed by Nokia as “Internet tablets”; these lost products 
started coming to market during 2005 with the 770. The last one (N900) 
came in 2009.<br />
What’s more interesting is that all of them came with a resistive 
touchscreen, two years before Apple popularised the technology in 
portable devices.<br />

<h4>
<span style="font-weight: bold;"> </span></h4>
Nokia’s first Internet tablet ran on Maemo, the Linux-based OS and 
had a 4.1 inch resistive touchscreen which got input from a stylus. 
Apart from that, it had a 252Mhz processor, 64 MB RAM and 128 MB 
expandable memory.<br />
The resultant was a slow device which got scathing reviews. Long forgotten.<br />
<h4>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Nokia N800 (2007)</span></h4>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPJtxJZxhZWJcohR4p6xLqsj_9IY7owXKGqDbZ0OCHzPf_UlxITJs06tNj6WLSbnzEIOnSDj_WB_B_fAEgJCddeJN9dtk44ucCVMnoRXhIU45xCEi_WqTD-epDJ7AszsP6byDjP23HRl0/s1600/nokia-n800-12-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPJtxJZxhZWJcohR4p6xLqsj_9IY7owXKGqDbZ0OCHzPf_UlxITJs06tNj6WLSbnzEIOnSDj_WB_B_fAEgJCddeJN9dtk44ucCVMnoRXhIU45xCEi_WqTD-epDJ7AszsP6byDjP23HRl0/s1600/nokia-n800-12-2.jpg" /></a></div>
The next attempt came just days after the original iPhone came. 
Despite this, the N800 is probably the most neglected Nokia product from
 the top-end N-series.<br />
Having a 4.1 inch resistive touchscreen again, this time it came with
 an underclocked 330 Mhz processor, 128 MB RAM, 64 MB expandable storage
 and upgraded Meamo OS. At least the thing worked this time, getting 3.5
 stars out of 5 from Cnet.<br />

<b>Nokia N810 (2007)</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8A7W8AGbR7QEk942lycTh4_AnJTa5tRAPNm2Y43ngQSgYKYSAmhojZmSIwWAymWLI68VEU3aU6ANWocmzrO8P4Ri9s9mN1YHm-PpjRsLQ269UDCX_BpCL1ps1znxizBT7n5N1cSTFbSc/s1600/nokia-n810-press-3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8A7W8AGbR7QEk942lycTh4_AnJTa5tRAPNm2Y43ngQSgYKYSAmhojZmSIwWAymWLI68VEU3aU6ANWocmzrO8P4Ri9s9mN1YHm-PpjRsLQ269UDCX_BpCL1ps1znxizBT7n5N1cSTFbSc/s1600/nokia-n810-press-3.jpg" /></a></div>
The N810 was the last Nokia product which got marketed as an Internet
 tablet and this time, it came with several big changes. Nokia N810 
featured a more pocketable design plus a slide-out backlit keyboard.<br />
The 4.1 inch resistive touchscreen display was still there, but it 
had 2 GB expandable memory, newer Maemo OS and a VGA camera this time. 
It was powered by a 400 Mhz processor on top of a 128 MB RAM. This 
product too got forgotten, however.<br />
<b>Nokia N900 (2009)</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3gJuoW5P5_u-2eHNZSvYSHZGK0WCDuRvi8fvuJtsrtzbgAZXCoqK-A5eZneHaqNmFqy9AHxzLXMaw3A_mBcpms4WLww-Es8ghOhsvrtFSFn0SXFeHbYpdUWTEasjnxOWaz9x5iH5kfWA/s1600/Sygic_on_Nokia_N900_Maemo-4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3gJuoW5P5_u-2eHNZSvYSHZGK0WCDuRvi8fvuJtsrtzbgAZXCoqK-A5eZneHaqNmFqy9AHxzLXMaw3A_mBcpms4WLww-Es8ghOhsvrtFSFn0SXFeHbYpdUWTEasjnxOWaz9x5iH5kfWA/s1600/Sygic_on_Nokia_N900_Maemo-4.jpg" /></a></div>
The N900 wasn’t an internet tablet only, it was a phone and it ran on
 the same Maemo OS. In my opinion, that telephone functionality is the 
reason why the N900 is a reasonably popular device because you see, a 
Nokia product without a SIM card slot isn’t quite Nokia enough. 
Therefore, even the Lumia 2520 and the Nokia Booklet 3G come with with 
SIM card functionality.<br />
The touchscreen was smaller at 3.5 inches and it borrowed the same 
bizarre keyboard from the N97 but the N900 came with a Cortex A8 
processor, 256 MB RAM, 32 GB storage and a 5 megapixel front camera. At 
the time of its release, it was among the most powerful phones on the 
market.<br />
But its greatest legacy was its ability to run almost everything you 
threw at it. From Android to Windows Mobile, everything you throw at it 
runs. Hell, there are even tutorials of full-fledged Windows running on 
the device. This amazing capability will keep the N900 alive for a long 
time to come.<br />
These all internet tablets are obsolete and discontinued now and the 
future lies in Lumia 2520 and Windows. Pretty much all of these “lost” 
devices were failures and it will be worth watching whether the 2520 
will change that.<span style="font-weight: bold;"></span></div>

<h3>
Introduction</h3>
Desire has long been the signature of the company's tier-2 lineup. 
With past offerings varying from capable midrangers all the way down to 
entry level, going for a smartphone bearing the Desire moniker has 
largely been a hit-or-miss affair.<br />
The Desire 500 is HTC's latest attempt to ride the middle road 
between features and price, and it is the modern day equivalent of the 
HTC Desire X released late last year. The other way to look at it is as 
the more affordable alternative of the Desire 600 dual SIM, which we 
reviewed a while ago. That said, the one we're dealing with is the 
single-SIM flavor of the HTC Desire 500, but there is a dial SIM 
variant, too.<br />

<b>HTC Desire 500 official images</b><br />
Although you won't find some of the latest bells and whistles on the 
Desire 500 - like an IR-port or a 1080p display - what you will get is 
solid quad-core performance alongside the company's latest Sense UI 5.0.
 Here's a quick rundown of the device's key strengths and most notable 
weaknesses:<br />
<h3>
Key features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Quad-band 2G and dual-band 3G support</li>
<li>4.3" 480 x 800 pixel TFT capacitive touchscreen with 217ppi </li>
<li>Android OS v4.2.2 Jelly Bean with Sense UI 5.0</li>
<li>Qualcomm MSM 8225Q Snapdragon 200: quad-core 1.2GHz Cortex-A5, 1 GB RAM, Adreno 203 GPU</li>
<li>8 MP autofocus camera with 1/3.2" sensor size, 1.4µm pixel size; LED flash </li>
<li>720p video recording @ 24fps with stereo audio, slow-motion video</li>
<li>1.6MP front-facing camera, 720p video recording</li>
<li>Wi-Fi b/g/n, DLNA</li>
<li>GPS with A-GPS</li>
<li>4GB of built-in storage</li>
<li>microSD card slot</li>
<li>Bluetooth v4.0</li>
<li>Standard 3.5 mm audio jack </li>
<li>Accelerometer and proximity sensor</li>
<li>FM Radio</li>
</ul>
<h3>
Main disadvantages</h3>
<ul>
<li>WVGA screen resolution </li>
<li>Not the most powerful of chipsets</li>
<li>Disappointing stills and video, no Full HD video recording</li>
<li>No active noise cancellation for voicecalls</li>
<li>Poor video codec support out of the box </li>
<li>Limited inbuilt storage, only 1GB available to the user</li>
</ul>
The Desire 500 may not be a sports car, but the quad-core 1.2GHz 
processor would mean it should be a nice cruiser - and most people are 
after that in a midranger. The display resolution is not up there with 
the best on the positive side, the graphical sub-system doesn't have to 
draw as many pixels on the screen so this may even help with 
performance. Also impressive on paper are the camera capabilities, which
 despite not being able to handle 1080p, include 720p and slow-motion 
videos. As an added bonus the front-facing camera shoots in 720p as 
well.<br />

<br />

Well, we are never satisfied with judging phones by their specs 
sheets only so we'll get right into testing whether the Desire 500 is 
worth its salt. Up next we have a through look at the hardware and build
 quality.</div>

Just two days ago Japan Display announced an amazingly sounding 12.1" 4K display for tablets. That one featured 3840x2160 pixel resolution and 365ppi density.<br />
Today Japan Display unveiled another ultra high resolution display, 
this time for pocketable mobile devices. The new panel has 1440 x 2560 
pixels and is available in two flavors - a 5.4" version with the 
chart-topping 543ppi density and a 6.2" model with 473ppi.<br />
Both models of the new display have 1mm thin bezels, greater than 160
 degree viewing angles and use LTPS (low temperature poly silicon) 
technology for keeping power consumption under control.<br />
The 5.4-inch unit measures at 69.59 x 126.67 x 1.12 mm and has 1500:1
 contrast, while its bigger 6.2" sibling spreads at 80.18 x 146.7 x 1.65
 mm and offers a 1000:1 contrast ratio.<br />
It's unclear when we will see an actual product touting these new 
screens, but seeing how screen sizes and resolutions evolve recently, it
 might not take longer than until next year.</div>

Motorola Moto X Price In Pakistan

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Motorola and three of its carrier partners - AT&T, Sprint and US Cellular - are now offering the Moto X
 for just $99.99 with a 2-year contract. That's exactly $100 lower than 
the original asking price of the US-assembled smartphone.<br />
US Cellular has an even better offer - the carrier will give you $75 
back if you opt to open a new line and the Moto X will cost you just 
$24.99.<br />

Nokia Lumia 1520 Specifications And Price

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Just as rumored, the centerpiece of the Nokia Lumia 1520 is a 6-inch 
1080p screen. On the back you get a 20 MP PureView camera with OIS, 
while its beating heart on the inside is a quad-core 2.2GHz Snapdragon 
800 processor (the first to be integrated on a Windows Phone). <br />
The Nokia Lumia 1520 has 2GB of RAM, 32GB built-in storage and a microSD slot to expand that.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQjjv0bi4XAg3NYac-QAxHDgpP_JcVcMsJcJkR_K4PD4BBGzLyEMdcFdZcEyUhpR1DYwb7RXdU8oprpSUlQyn3m4WhP8FxqAtGaaBC91X0mFJ86z5QH_-KpxBkSHrRfCMTVLjsYvbHFRw/s1600/Nokia+lumia+1520.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQjjv0bi4XAg3NYac-QAxHDgpP_JcVcMsJcJkR_K4PD4BBGzLyEMdcFdZcEyUhpR1DYwb7RXdU8oprpSUlQyn3m4WhP8FxqAtGaaBC91X0mFJ86z5QH_-KpxBkSHrRfCMTVLjsYvbHFRw/s1600/Nokia+lumia+1520.jpg" /></a></div>
The new 1080p 6-inch screen has a pixel density of 368 ppi and is a 
ClearBlack IPS LCD unit with Super Sensitive touch. It's covered by 
Corning Gorilla Glass 2 for protection and Nokia has worked hard on its 
legibility in direct sunlight. The larger screen real estate now allows 
for a third column of Live Tiles on the homescreen or you can simply 
enjoy more large-sized tiles.<br />
The Nokia Lumia 1520 takes after the Lumia 1020 design - it's 
actually like a supersized version of the 1020 sans the camera hump on 
the back. A part of the polycarbonate plastic used comes from recycling,
 so it's more environmentally friendly, too. <br />
Inside the new smartphone there is a 3400mAh battery (as compared to 
2000 mAh for the Lumia 1020), allowing for up to 32 days of standby and 
up to 124h of music playback.<br />
There is a price to be paid for that battery capacity. While the 
Lumia 1520 is quite slim at 8.7mm of thickness, it's really heavy at 
209g. In comparison, the 5.7-inch Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is way lighter 
at 168 g, while the 6.4-inch Sony Xperia Z Ultra (with all the glass it 
has on the back) weighs around the same at 212g.<br />

<b>The Nokia Lumia 1520 in white, red and yellow</b><br />
Connectivity-wise, the Lumia 1520 comes with Wi-Fi a/b/g/n/ac with 
channel bonding, NFC, Bluetooth 4.0, USB 2.0, LTE up to 150 Mbps, HSDPA 
up to 42.2 Mbps and HSUPA up to 5.76 Mbps.<br />
The Lumia 1520 comes with four microphones on board, which not only 
get used for multimicrophone noise cancellation in calls, but also 
deliver Nokia's proprietary Rich sound recording. <br />
The Lumia 1520 uses a 26 mm wide angle 20MP PureView camera with 
6-lens Zeiss optics and a 1/2.5 inch BSI sensor. The camera has OIS and 
makes use of oversampling, which results into smaller res photos with 
less noise and also allows for lossless zooming. There is no xenon flash
 though, only a Dual LED one. Video recording maxes out at 1080p@30fps.<br />
Nokia has also revamped the Nokia Camera app, integrating the Nokia 
Smart Camera and the Nokia Pro camera functionality inside the regular 
camera UI and allowing for a seamless camera mode changing.<br />

<br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b>Nokia's redesign Camera app</b></span><br />
Nokia has also developed a new app called Nokia Storyteller. It plots
 out all the photos you've taken on the HERE map. You can zoom in to 
specific locations and see the actual photos grouped by date of taking 
and location. It also integrates all your specialty photos - like 
cinemagraphs and Action shots (it would even animate the latter).<br />
A new app called <a href="https://beam.nokia.com/" target="_blank">Nokia Beamer</a> would also allow you to stream your smartphone's screen to any device with a web browser.<br />
Software-wise, the Nokia Lumia 1520 will come with the latest stuff 
that Microsoft and Nokia have on offer. It's Windows Phone 8 with a 
little something called Lumia Black and it includes all the latest 
software enhancements from both companies. It comes with stuff like 
Nokia HERE Drive+ with global free turn-by-turn navigation, true offline
 support and audible speed limit warnings, the new Nokia Camera app, the
 Nokia Storyteller app, the Nokia Beamer app, but also Microsoft's new 
suite of Bing apps and customized ringtones for individual contacts, 
something that hasn't been available on Windows Phone so far. The Lumia 
Black update premiers on the Nokia 1520, but will be available as an 
update to other Lumias in the beginning of 2014.<br />
The Nokia Lumia 1520 will launch in yellow, red, white, and black 
later this autumn, starting in Hong Kong, Singapore, China, the U.S. (an
 AT&T exclusive), France, Germany, UK and continuing to other 
European markets for a retail price of $749 before taxes and subsidies.<br />

Ministry of Information Technology and Telecom, earlier this month, issued the policy directive for the auction of 3G
 / next generation telecom licenses. MoIT had said that the policy for 
auction of next-gen licenses was approved by Mr. Nawaz Sharif, the Prime
 Minister of Pakistan.<br />
This policy directive was handed over to Pakistan Telecommunication 
Authority for the implementation of license auction, for which PTA is already perusing with all its resources.<br />
Here is the full content of the policy directive on the auction of next generation telecom licenses:<br />
<div class="adsxpls" id="adsxpls1" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding: 0px; text-align: center;">
</div>
<ul>
<li>PTA will be responsible for transparent and competitive auction of the next-gen spectrum.</li>
<li>The directive said that allotment of spectrum will be technology 
neutral and will be usable for technologies standardized for 3G and 
advanced generation(s) of mobile services.</li>
<li>As identified by Frequency Allocation Board (FAB), a 30MHz paired 
spectrum in 1.9GHz/2.1GHz band will be auctioned to telecom operators.</li>
<li>PTA is entrusted to carry out the auction process, fulfilling the 
policy objective of optimal outcome mitigating chances of collusion 
among bidders.</li>
<li>Auction shall by accordingly conducted by PTA in the minimum possible time after the issuance of this directive.</li>
<li>PTA shall carry out the appointment of internationally reputed consultant(s) with following terms of references (TORs):
<ul>
<li>Identify the number and size of blocks to be auctioned considering the market situation</li>
<li>Recommend the most appropriate auction methodology and plan</li>
<li>Recommend the reserve price for auction</li>
<li>Design and management of auction process</li>
<li>Analyse potential impact on auction price with respect to upfront 
payment of the bid price versus staggered payment over five years and 
recommend the optimal bidding procedures</li>
<li>Develop a license template for new license</li>
<li>Any other allied matter relating to the auction and any assignments deemed necessary by PTA</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Reserve price of 1MHz will be finalized by the Federal Government after recipient of report from consultants.</li>
<li>All existing cellular mobile operators as well as new entrants will be eligible to participate in the auction</li>
<li>A new license for the provision of next generation mobile services will be issued to the successful bidders/auction winners.</li>
<li>The tenure of the new license will be 15 years.</li>
<li>For efficient and optimal rollout of next generation mobile 
services, cost-based sharing of infrastructure shall be considered as a 
matter of first priority by cellular operators at the time of rollout.</li>
<li>PTA shall prepare detailed guidelines for infrastructure sharing 
with the view to provide level-playing field to both existing as well as
 new entrant(s).</li>
<li>Existing licensee would provide National Roaming on request by any New Entrant(s) or as directed by PTA, as deemed appropriate.</li>
<li>Auction winners will encourage and facilitate local manufacturing, 
assembling and development of telecom equipment, terminal devices, 
applications, transfer of technology and Research & Innovation in 
Pakistan</li>
<li>Auction winners may deploy renewable energy sources as power back up.</li>
<li>The advisory committee shall be kept informed/updated by PTA 
regarding the progress of auction process and on tasks assigned to the 
consultant(s).</li>
<li>Recommendations brought forward by consultant(s) will be shared by 
advisory committee, which may review any provision contained in the 
policy directive.</li>
<li>With the issuance of this policy directive, the earlier policy directive for 3G license auction (issued on December 19th, 2011) stands suspended.</li>
</ul>
It maybe recalled that PTA has already published advertisement in international and national media to hire consultants.
 Last date for applying for the job is November 12th, 2013. It is likely
 that PTA will be able to select consultants around the last week of 
November.<br />
After appointment of consultants, one to two month period will be 
required to prepare IM, a document that will detail the procedure, 
methodology, price and other information on the auction.<br />
IM will also contain an auction date – likely to be one month after the issuance of IM.<br />
In simpler words, 3G auction date is still at least four months from now.</div>
