We have been given a chance to participate in nokia connects fightboredom unboxing challenge last week and boy it was fun.
So the challenge was to do something different than the norm and i was thinking what could i do. My little girl Alice who is 5 next tuesday has been watching me with all my nokia products and seen me carry in a new package. So I began to think she would be up for doing my job unboxing, well to no surprise she said yes daddy i want to do it. Now she is no stranger to phones as she is surrounded by them here but never been on camera for a video so she was fine and so eager.
She even has a nickname around here, she has the Lumia 520 now and brings the 520 everywhere she loves it.She is called the LumiaChild around here. So here is my beautiful daughter unboxing the lumia 625 its funny…but cute.
She has already ditched the 520 for the 625 so she like her daddy likes to move on. Once again thanks to nokia connects for this fun experiment and i hope to see more..
The Nokia 108 and Nokia 108 Dual SIM – Capture, Share and Play
Espoo, Finland – Nokia today unveiled two new ultra-affordable camera phones: the Nokia 108 and the Nokia 108 Dual SIM. Perfect for people purchasing their first-ever camera phone, the new handsets offer more than just calls and texts. The Nokia 108 also lets people take pictures and record video, helping them capture life’s important moments with an attractively-priced device. With Nokia’s Slam technology on board, content can be shared faster and more easily with friends and family via Bluetooth. Support for up to 32GB of external memory ensures there’s plenty of space to store people’s most cherished content.
The Nokia 108 delivers new mobile experiences without the huge price tag. In addition to a built-in VGA camera, the Nokia 108 also features an integrated MP3 player, FM radio, Snake the game, multiple alarms and flashlight for staying entertained and productive while on-the-go. With exceptional battery life of up to 31 days’ standby when using the single SIM Nokia 108, people will also be able to enjoy the phone for longer.
The Nokia 108 extends the Nokia design story with its softly rounded corners and raised island keys, making it a pleasure to use. Available in Nokia’s signature red, white, black, yellow and cyan, the colorful back covers are also removable. Made with Nokia’s renowned quality and attention to detail, the Nokia 108 gives people an outstanding introduction to mobile technology at a great price, and makes staying in touch with friends and family more fun and enjoyable.
“We continue to connect millions of people, including those for whom mobile phone ownership was previously out of reach,” said Timo Toikkanen, executive vice president, Mobile Phones, Nokia. “There remains a huge segment of the global population that has yet to own a camera phone. For the next billion people and beyond, we aim to bring new mobile experiences to ever-lower price points, and the Nokia 108 and Nokia 108 Dual SIM are great examples of this commitment.”
Great value as a first mobile or back-up phone
The Nokia 108 and Nokia 108 Dual SIM are great value, beautifully designed handsets for calls, texts and on-the-go entertainment including photos, Snake, music and video. With expandable storage of up to 32GB, people can store thousands of images, music tracks and hundreds of videos. With standby time of up to 31 days for the Nokia 108 and up to 25 days for the Nokia 108 Dual SIM, they also make for highly reliable back-up phones for occasional or emergency use. The Dual SIM variant enables people to select which SIM card to use when making a call or sending a text message, helping them manage costs and maintain network coverage on-the-go, without the need to use several phones.
The Nokia 108 and Nokia 108 Dual SIM have a recommended retail price of just 29 USD, excluding taxes and subsidies. Available colors include red, white and black at launch, with yellow and cyan to follow. The Nokia 108 and the Nokia 108 Dual SIM are expected to start shipping in Q4 this year.

Top womens website Her.ie has paid tribute to the long and gone nokia 3210 which was super popular in its day,here is what they had to say.Sue Murphy writes the following!
EIGHT REASONS WE REALLY MISS THE NOKIA 3210
Everyone had a Nokia 3210 when they were younger, for most it was the first phone, for others it became the only phone that you would ever use. Here are eight reasons we miss the Nokia 3210.
1. It was virtually indestructible.
We have seen Nokias washed in the washing machine, hit concrete floors and fall into toilets and they still come out absolutely perfectly.
2. Snake
Hours and hours of endless amusement.
3. The Covers Were Amazing.
One particular Her.ie staff member had a cover which was a map of Middle Earth from the Lord of the Rings. Amazing.
4. You could make sweet, sweet music.
There was none of this “download a tone” rubbish, with the Nokia 3210, you could become Beethoven.
5. Personlised Service
You turned on your phone, and it declared your name! Occasionally with a nice little picture that moved on the screensaver. Nice….
6. The Nokia ringtone
The universal sound for a phone ringing now.
7. Predictive text
Sure, your iPhone does this sometimes, but certainly not to the same extent as your wonderful Nokia. Of course, it did take a while to actually adapt to that.
8. A phone was a phone.
Wasn’t everything just better when all you used your phone for was text messages and calls? Now, it knows your life better than you do.
Her.ie and sue we salute you for a great reminder of a nokia classic.
