Nokia XL and me

Nokia is my first love for mobiles and Android is my current favorite operating system. While Nokia is slowly moving away from Symbian, more Nokias are coming on Windows Mobile OS. The recent interesting development is an Android based Nokia. Well, not very recent but the news isn’t that old. Why I’m writing this post here? I’ve finally got a chance to play around with a Nokia running it’s  modified version of Android OS. The new platform is called Nokia X and the phone I have in my hand right now is called Nokia XL. It’s not the first phone on Nokia X platform but my first Android Nokia.

It’s been only a few hours I’ve got it so can’t say much about it but this place is about to get filled with a lot of Nokia XL stuff, so stay tuned.

Here are a few photos form my pre-unboxing post 🙂

WhatsApp hoax about voice calls

 

WhatsApp has now been flooded with this hoax message and just like any other chain letter/hoax people continue to fall victim for it. The message asks you to forward it to everyone in the contacts to get some free voice calls and this forwarding will ensure that your account is active and blah blah blah and so on.

Dear fellow WhatsApp users, if its about free calls, why don’t you make free calls using Skype, Viber or any other similar service? Just take a chill pill and relax. It’s just a fake message you’ve fallen for, have you?

The purpose of the hoax message has not yet clear except doing exactly what it asks you to prevent, yes, to make WhatsApp servers overloaded by huge number of broadcast messages.
