Nokia 830 could come in different sizes and specs says source (Paid)

wpid-wp-1407379607163.png

Moving  forward when a source is paid we will list it in the title and disclaim it in the article. Thanks. TK

Looks like the 800 series is slated to come in three different variants yet again in the US.  According to a reliable source. (Disclaimer: For the record my wife did work at Microsoft until recently.  This information is not obtained from that department as XBOX is a separate division) Have to say that because I know people will ask about it.

That said, There looks to be 3 Models of the 830 slated for the US, We know about the Verizon Model, (We should have it in hand by the weekend) And now we learn about a AT&T and T-Mobile variant of the device. Sorry Sprint customers still no Nokia goodness for you.

We had conflicting reports of different display sizes and resolutions. The 830 model number have not yet been disclosed but source says they will all be different.

So looks like Microsoft is following up what they did 2 years ago now with the 822, 820, and 810

The AT&T and T-Mobile versions are said to be similar with different cameras and one missing wireless charging, (We’re guessing that is the AT&T Variant)

Also of note is the display size being 4.7 Inches for the T-Mobile variant of the device. And maybe a bump in specs and resolution (Unconfirmed)

This wouldn’t be anything new we just saw AT&T and Verizon do this with the LG Vista.

Stay tuned I’ll update with a new post as information develops.

20.1 pure view camera
SD Card Support
And some decent specs.

The source has shipped us the device and a hands on will be coming once it arrives.

What do you think about Verizon pushing a mid tier Windows phone? Let me know in the comments below and on the YouTube video above

UPDATE** Softbank makes ridiculous offer for T-Mobile CEO

UPDATE***
WSJ reports Sprint to name Claure as CEO. Claure is the founder of wireless company Brightstar, and joined Sprint’s board back in January.

News broke today via the WSJ that the deal for T-Mobile wouldn’t happen.

We also learn that Dan Hesse time as the captain of the ship over at Sprint is also over as he will be stepping down.

The crazy news of the day is TMobile customers may still end up being mad as hell. As Softbank has reportedly made a ridiculous offer for the maverick T-Mobile CEO.
(There is also a shocking replacement if that would fall through)
Nothing specific was stated from the source who is a well known investor and holder of Sprint.
But the source stated quote “They are definitely willing to overpay, This guy is Jack Welch of our time”

Pretty strong words. Stay tuned as we will update this story the moment we get more info. And more info is coming tonight after a board phone call.

@evleaks fund is live (Medical support fund for Evan)

Thanks to Evan ‘@Evleaks’ Blass tech fans have gotten an early look at some high-profile smartphones and tablets, usually months before they’re officially announced.
Now, after two years of tweets, the tech journalist turned full-time leak artist has announced he’s giving it up.

Evan Blass, who earned a reputation for putting out legit leaks, says he’s quitting because leaking photos and spec sheets on Twitter had proved near impossible to monetise.
He told The Next Web he had tried sponsored tweets, accepted donations and pushing folks towards his website, but found users had little incentive to visit after seeing his pics on Twitter and across the web.
Retirement

So, as a result, Evleaks, who was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis a decade ago, is Retiring.
I call on all in this Tech Community who have used images from @EVLEAKS and or used his content for the last to years to build your tech sites and give us all something to write about to get the word out.
This indiegogo campaign will help Evan get the proper medical care and treatment he needs to return to the best health possible and possibly one day make a return to this tech community.

You can help by sharing the campaign, Donating to the campaign, or just getting the word out.
Thank you.

Project Green talked about in Public with R&D device on hand (Lumia Android)

Looks like this is not even trying to be kept a secret.
S.Elop has been in public the over the last two weeks with a strange looking device. We now know that device is part of “Project Green” as several people heard the VP of devices speak about in public at a place of business with other Microsoft employees.
Is this just lose lips, or is Microsoft not even trying to keep this a secret?

Either way a Nokia Lumia Android could be a hot seller in the fall.
Let us know what you think and stay tuned as we are sure Mr.Elop will continue to display this device in public.

We’re looking for a editor of leaks

Just as the title says. We are looking for an editor of leaks. TK while now getting so much information in on a daily basis has no time to verify the information as it comes in.
We’ve had people spoof e-mail addresses, even send a fake device, not to mention companies trying to mislead you with false info.
So we’re hiring for an editor of leaks. It will be this person’s responsibility to work with other industry insiders and sources we already have to verify this information as it comes in.

With all the information from Apple, Samsung, Motorola, and now Microsoft we have coming in we will need one or even two people to stay on top of it all.

We also are announcing our move to New York City and Boston where we will have two official offices.

If you think you have what it takes. Contact us at [email protected] we will then get a resume and get you interviewed.
