AN 11 INCH SCREEN?!?!

lulz

[mescalineeyes]

As a Nokia shareholder I am scared shitless.

[giga]

11" huh. Nokia's first tablet should be interesting.

[badcrumble]

AN 11 INCH SCREEN?!?! lulz

See on that ruler where it says "0.1 mm"? "mm" doesn't stand for "inches." That's eleven centimeters, people.

[Yo Gotti]

AN 11 INCH SCREEN?!?! lulz

Centimeters?

[Davidion]

Not every smartphone needs to sell either amirite?

[Stinkles]

Centimeters?

There are three quarters of a US gourd to a centimeter.

[brotkasten]

OP, are you sure you used Segoe or Pure?

[EightBitNate]

OP, are you sure you used Segoe or Pure?

Ya see, I wasn't sure which one to with, so I just decided to go with Segoe. Should I change it?

[UraMallas]

Here goes nothin'. I've put off buying a new phone for 7 or 8 months, hoping to see a flagship WP8 Verizon phone. I hope I'm not disappointed.

[Complex Shadow]

ight nokia. lets see what you got.

[brotkasten]

Ya see, I wasn't sure which one to with, so I just decided to go with Segoe. Should I change it?

No, segoe is fine in the tiles. Actually, it should be Segoe WP, but standard UI is fine. It looked a bit weird to me, that's why I asked.

[out0v0rder]

haha did they use and iphone 4 to take this?

[EightBitNate]

No, segoe is fine in the tiles. Actually, it should be Segoe WP, but standard UI is fine. It looked a bit weird to me, that's why I asked.

Okay, I got you. Thanks. Just gonna make a few adjustments.

[Complex Shadow]

How do you even know. It's just thicker. I didn't even notice that till you brought it up. What have you done to me.

[Atenhaus]

It's going to be a 4.3" screen, people. :|

[giga]

It's going to be a 4.3" screen, people. :|

We were joking. At least I think death was going by his 'lulz' at the end.

[Complex Shadow]

We were joking. At least I think death was going by his 'lulz' at the end.

I think this just goes to show how unfunny both of you are...lulz

[Nemo]

As a Nokia shareholder I am scared shitless.

Didn't they gain some after that Samsung/Apple court day? Cash out bro

[flippedb]

My next phone will be a Windows Phone. That damn OS looks so sleek.

[FUBAR McDangles]

Here goes nothin'. I've put off buying a new phone for 7 or 8 months, hoping to see a flagship WP8 Sprint phone. I hope I'm not disappointed.

Changed for my situation.

[mescalineeyes]

Didn't they gain some after that Samsung/Apple court day? Cash out bro

We are back to normal again :/

That ruling was after the stock exchange closing though so its impact was a bit muted.

[f0lken]

Didn't they gain some after that Samsung/Apple court day? Cash out bro

After the sub-2 dollars debacle they have been increasing the % before the Apple rulling

[UraMallas]

It's going to be a 4.3" screen, people. :|

That would be perfect for me.

[Curtisaur]

But... that does look like an iPhone. Is the thread title a joke?

[Hypertrooper]

That'd be the event where my new phone is going to be announced. I am excited.

[UraMallas]

But... that does look like an iPhone. Is the thread title a joke?

Has to do with what an Apple lawyer said in court against Samsung. He showed the Lumia 900 to the court to show that "not every smartphone needs to look like an iPhone."

[Firestorm]

But... that does look like an iPhone. Is the thread title a joke?

You should probably get your eyes checked. Thread title is a quote from Apple referring to the Lumia line in their case against Samsung.

Lmao, thats some Franziska von Karma play right there

Oh yeah, my friend has some too in Nokia. Dude's probably anxious as well

[Technosteve]

clever OP

Oh yeah my eyes need to be checked because I don't follow every statement from every company that has a popular web presence in every stupid patent case they ever file. Thanks for the tip, doctor. I set up an emergency appointment with a wide range of differing types of eye care professionals to hopefully clear up this problem I have of not being completely and utterly omniscient.

[Satchel]

Intense.

Been stuck with my now constantly losing reception iPhone 4 for over 2 years now.

Choice is between the new Lumia, new iPhone or the Samsung Ativ S.

My Xbox keeps telling me to go Windows Phone. Which will be a tricky changeover given my household contains a Mac Pro, MacBook Pro, iPad and 2 iPhones.

The Lumia will be awesome for sure!!!

[YesNOnoNOYes]

I think those were 2 seprate points which easily got misinterpreted. 1) it's a quote 2) it really is different than the iPhone if you look at it not only from a software level but also from a hardware level instead of randomly firing shots at a really nice person, who made a harmless comment.

Also I would like it if you didn't make a complete ass out of your self. I know shit happens but taking it out on random people is inexcusable .

Emotions run high in the Nokia WP8 OT. You don't understand.

Still looks fairly similar to an iPhone aesthetically (you know... how it looks) in the shots provided.



Not really taking anything out on random people.. I was addressing, directly, a person who made an asinine and irrelevant comment about my eyesight.

[EightBitNate]

Still looks fairly similar to an iPhone aesthetically (you know... how it looks) in the shots provided.

I think that might just be the bezel, you know, to be placed on the actual phone, like this:

It's missing the carbon casing. That's just the glossy part that blends in with the display.

[Curtisaur]

I think that might just be the bezel, you know, to be placed on the actual phone, like this:

And? Now it just looks similar to an iPhone with a bumper on it. Whoopty-doo.

[f0lken]

Still looks fairly similar to an iPhone aesthetically (you know... how it looks) in the shots provided.

Yeah but that's just one part of the phone, I bet that if you strip the bezel on the Lumia 900 people would say that the screen part looks just like an iPhone

[EightBitNate]

And? Now it just looks similar to an iPhone with a bumper on it. Whoopty-doo.

So you're saying the Lumia phones looks similar to iPhones?

[rozay]

So you're saying the Lumia phones looks similar to iPhones?

oh ho ho ho ho

[mescalineeyes]

So you're saying the Lumia phones looks similar to iPhones?

firestorm seemed to have a point after all!

[Complex Shadow]

i understand but its still unfair.

it wasn't asinine. you know what is asinine? saying that

this

looks like this

unless apple invented squares. i suggest you stop acting so arrogant.

[EightBitNate]

I don't even know how he can be so confident they're similar based only off of prototypes of a faceplate. Give it time.

[dLMN8R]

Cool thread turned to shit, nice!

[VanMardigan]

So you're saying the Lumia phones looks similar to iPhones?

He probably is, but even Apple disagrees, so we should probably move past his blindness.
