A new survey recently found that men think their phones are sexy, or at least, many think that a hip phone will make them more attractive to the opposite sex. Significantly fewer women agreed, but as a geek girl, I may have to contend that some of the phones out there are a little bit sexy.
So, in honor of Valentine's Day, here's a little homage to some of the sexiest phones out there. Check them out and cast your vote after the break.
Proving no smartphone is immune to technical trouble, Nokia has announced that some users are experiencing problems with their N8 phones. The N8 is Nokia's most powerful phone, packing a 12MP camera, HD video capability, HDMI connection, and 16GB of built-in storage.
According to Nokia, some devices have been experiencing power issues; after a charge, they don't turn on. The problem is affecting a small amount of N8 devices, and Nokia is currently working on a solution for the problem.
Despite its problems, Nokia is still the world's smartphone leader. In the US, it still remains third behind Android and iOS devices.
Shooting video on a camera phone is nothing new — you and I probably do it all the time. But how many of you have shot an eight-minute short film on yours, raise your hand. Not many, I assume.
This short film in particular, about a guy who heads out to his first day at work to find himself in the middle of an action-film-like cat and mouse chase, was shot on a Nokia N8 — the smartphone with HD video recording and amazing 12MP camera. Toss in a few Hollywood stars like Dev Patel, Ed Westwick, and Pam Anderson, and you have yourself an instant overnight Internet success. Seriously, you'll never be able to tell that it was shot on a cameraphone.
Check out the video, called The Commuter, in its entirety (totally worth the eight minutes of your time) after the break.
