Yesterday at Slush 2014, Nokia announced the Nokia N1 Android Tablet. It is the first device announced after they sold their Devices & Services Business to Microsoft.

The Nokia N1 is a 7.9″ (2048 x 1536) IPS panel Android tablet running on Android 5.0 (Lollipop). It is powered by 64-bit Intel quad-core processor running at 2.3GHz. It has 2GB LPDDR3 RAM and comes with 32GB internal storage.

I won the Nokia Wireless Charging Stand (DT-910) worth S$128 from TheGeekyBeng’s Great Nokia Giveaways.

This is the second Qi wireless charger that I have, the first being the Anker Ultra-Slim Qi-Enabled Wireless Charging Pad. Both wireless chargers have no problem charging my Lumia 930 and Nexus 5 with their cases on.

Bought my Nokia Lumia 930 Case (CP-637) for my Nokia Lumia 930 for S$39 at Funan’s Nokia Store. There are three colors available, Orange, Green and Black.

Looking for a case for the Lumia 930 is challenging because none of the gadgets/electronics store carries it. You can only get it from Nokia stores themselves or from their solutions partners’ stores like (GadgetWorld, 3Mobile or Handphoneshop).

Bought my orange Nokia Lumia 930 from MobyShop on the same date as the official launch (Saturday, 12th July 2014) for S$699 (RRP is S$789). I traded in my old HTC One (32GB) for S$250, so I ended up paying S$449 for the Lumia 930.

Specifications

Nokia Lumia 930 will be available in Singapore starting tomorrow, 12th July 2014 for S$789 at Nokia Stores, Nokia Solution Partners and at all 3 local operators (SingTel, M1, StarHub). All four colors: bright orange, bright green, black and white will be available at launch.

I will be getting my Nokia Lumia 930 in orange without contact from MobyShop because they are selling it for S$699 only and the stocks will arrive later today. While I am there, I will be trading in my HTC One (32GB) for S$250 since I have no use for another Android phone after owning a Nexus 5.

One of the first Nokia Android phones, the Nokia XL will be available in Singapore from this Friday, 13th June 2014 at 12pm sharp.

You can’t get it from the physical stores yet because it will be available exclusively online at handphoneshop.com/NokiaXL till 27th June 2014.

Thanks to Nokia Connects (@Nokia_Connects) for the invite to Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2014! This is my third trip to such a big event with Nokia Connects. The first was Nokia World 2011 in London and the second was Mobile World Congress 2012 in Barcelona, Spain.

Our itinerary for this year MWC was shorter by a day. Despite it being shorter by a day, I find this year trip is more relaxing! We flew in on Sunday, 23rd February 2014 and flew back on Wednesday, 26th February 2014.
