    Nokia 603 - Another Symbian Belle Phone

    Nokia 603 – Another Symbian Belle Phone – I kept thinking that Nokia will not make another Symbian phone because Nokia announced that they will migrate their platform from Symbian to Windows Phone. However, Nokia has just released another Symbian Belle phone, named the Nokia 603. This added another device into the Symbian Belle family of Nokia 600, Nokia 700 and Nokia 701.

    Physically, the design of the phone improved and appears to be sleeker than the other 3 model. The phone is powered by 1GHz processor, as well as supports the NFC feature.

    Japanese Failed To Talk With Siri Assistant – Apple iPhone 4S and iOS5 is now here (but not in Malaysia yet for the iPhone 4S). Everyone around me have been telling me how nice the Siri Assistant is, this and that. But then I wonder will it recognize our Malaysian-accent English well?

    The Japanese tried the Siri, with a strong Japanese accent but failed to get a correct response for it. Well, in about two weeks time, the iPhone 4S will be launched in Singapore and I will be heading there to try out my brother’s unit and will update with you how it works.

    Looking at the video, it shows that the new iPhone 5 will be 33% smaller and is a complete redesign of the current iPhone 4. It also features a larger screen and the design of the phone is lookalike with the current Apple iPad.

    It’s pretty hard from me the judge from the video, but I would definitely like to see an iPhone with a bigger screen. I find the current design is cool and sleek too. At the moment, let’s wait till next Tuesday for the “boom, one more thing”.

    Everything become more social. The interface is really cool with a featured cover photo at the top which you can change anytime. The cover photo is for you to show the people who you really are, like showing your favourite traveling photo, put a delicious food photo to show that you like to eat, a huge profile picture of you or anything you just like.

    The interface is nice, somehow privacy get exposed as people can stalk and read about you easily. So hopefully Facebook will do something to protect the privacy of the user too. Do tell me what you think in the comment.
