Nokia smartphones and BBM

This one's a big news about Nokia due to large involvement at MWC. The first they're announcing is the Lumia 630 and 635 Windows Phones. They may look like Iphone 5C or perhaps the Lumia 620 which is more or less what the Iphone 5C looks like.
As of now, we may have known that Windows Phone 8.1 will have virtual nagivation keys and Lumia 630 and 635 will be the first ones to have this feature.
BBM or Blackberry Messenger on the other hand will be coming to Windows Phone through Nokia Lumia devices this year. The previous release was the Android and IOS versions last year. Two more apps announced by Nokia for Windows Phone such as Photoshop Express and Food Panda. Note that Food Panda is obviously for India only so speaking of remote food order service from India, I guess that the people living in India can order any food from whatever shop in that country through telephone serivce like some commercial I can remember before. If you're trying to call for food order, you can only do so from whatever restaurant, coffee shop, etc. from whichever country you're living in.
Lastly is the Nokia Android devices called Nokia X series. But rather than Google online serivces, it's Microsoft's. Perhaps Microsoft will be buying Nokia soon or something. There will also be the app store run by Nokia as well as the third-party app storefronts. These Nokia X series smartphones will be available immediately in Asia, Europe, Africa, Middle East and South America.

Blackberry cancels two smartphones and Blackberry Live for next year

The loss of the large financial numbers might be the cause of the cancellation of the upcoming smartphones from Blackberry as well as the next big live event for developers and partners coming next year. It was like a business disaster for Blackberry. Instead, they will be hosting the smaller events in the future around the globe for the next 12 months in order to cut costs.
Lastly, for smartphones, it seems that Blackberry is going to let Foxconn design the hardware for future low cost Blackberry smartphones.

Twitter for BlackBerry 4.0 Update

Now that you can connect your BlackBerry on Twitter with the Connect capabilities. it features new tabs, streamlined design, and simplified navigation makes this an enjoyable app on BlackBerry. The Connect tab shows you who retweeted, favorited and followed you and gathers all your mentions in one place. Even better is that it is simple to filter mentions and replies to see only certain interactions.

Other improvements involve the access to existing and new functionality such as the new Discover Tab which encompasses Trends, “Who to follow” suggestions, and an easier way to browse categories. On the Me tab, you can find messages, lists and your favorites Tweets there.

Well, that’s the update to the app for BlackBerry but then, this sort of update should be available earlier to me.

Facebook Update for BlackBerry

BlackBerry devices are the smartphone sort of devices that I don’t even use smartphones as I don’t contact people through the phones. Like always, I make contacts with people through the email information. The ways I contact people will be the emailing and chatting and that sounds way too social enough to communicate.

Facebook for BlackBerry is apparently updated to Version 3.3 with newer features and increased BlackBerry Messenger connectivity. Other new stuffs include the new look and feel with refreshed icons and navigation.

Using BBM Integration, you can invite your Facebook friends to BlackBerry Messenger provided that they have the BlackBerry devices. And as BlackBerry series is the smartphone series, you can make calls in addition to various Facebook features.

Unfortunately, having to share your PIN is a controversial thing to me as this is supposed to the private sort of passcode thing you should not reveal to. First of all, you may end up sharing your BlackBerry PIN on Facebook in your Facebook profile which may be kind of bullshit anyway and Facebook already had tightened the security in doing their best to keep parts of your profile settings private.

The Photo feature is redesigned for modern navigation and somehow, it looks similar to the Photo apps in other smartphone devices and you’re able to view the photos in higher resolution. Even better is that you can save photos from Facebook to your device and media card.
