This year’s Mobile World Congress hasn’t been a massive event for Nokia, but they have now unveiled the next and upcoming N-Series flagship. The new Nokia N86 is a slider phone featuring an 8 megapixal camera with Carl Zeiss Tessar lens, autofocus, fast mechanical shutter that should reduce motion blur and a dual-LED flash. Importantly, photos can be geotagged due to the integrated GPS. It also has a 8GB internal memory with a TV-out and a microSD slot. It has a numeric keypad with t9ers, good news for txters. Other highlights of the Symbian S60 phone include a 2.6-inch, scratch-resistant OLED display, stereo Bluetooth support, Wi-Fi, e-mail support, an FM transmitter, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.
Overall, it is a nice and easy to use phone. Check out our gallery for more pictures of this phone.
We only spoke about it a week ago and now LG has officially announced their latest flagship – the LG Arena KM900 at the Mobile World Congress 2009 in Barcelona. I know some have been asking us when exactly the Arena will be available in the UK, we can now confirm that it will arrive very shortly next month! Meanwhile, we’ve got an official demo video of the new and very exciting 3D cube user interface (UI) for you to see right after the break.

We’ve just learnt through MobileCrunch about two minor features of the Palm Pre which turns out not many realised. As you will see in the video below, the Palm Pre has a slide to unlock feature very similar to that of the iPhone, it is optimised for one-handed, ambidextrous unlocking. All that is needed is a simple drag motion of the unlock object out of the circle and the Palm Pre will wake up. It’s also got a camera shutter that can be triggered by pressing on the spacebar which is also quite neat.
Now this is quite special, apparently not involving any latest tech. Simply done by scanning the barcode on the side of the Lego box you’re holding next to the Lego Digital Box, it will then show you in 3D what your model will look like once completed.
