Slough, UK (PRWEB) May 26, 2011

O2 today reveals the latest scores of its Eco rating scheme, highlighting the UKs most sustainable mobile phones. The Nokia C6-01 and E7-00 share the top spot with scores of 4.1 out of 5 and Nokia handsets comprise three of the top six best handsets.

According to Eco rating, the six most sustainable handsets currently being ranged by O2 are:

1st: Nokia C6-01, score 4.1/5

1st: Nokia E7-00, score 4.1/5

2nd: Samsung Galaxy Mini, score 4/5

2nd: Samsung Galaxy Ace, score 4/5

2nd: Sony Ericsson X8, score 4/5

2nd: Nokia C7-02, score 4/5

O2 launched Eco rating last August as part of its Think Big sustainability programme which aims to promote sustainable living through O2 products and services. Eco rating has been developed in partnership with independent sustainability experts Forum for the Future (http://www.forumforthefuture.org) to help customers make an informed decision when buying a mobile phone.

Under Eco rating, virtually every handset O2 sells is accorded a score out of 5 based on the environmental impact of the device, how it helps people lead more sustainable lives, and the ethical performance of the manufacturer. The scores are published online and on sales collateral in O2 stores. Eco rating is the only scheme of its kind to give customers the full picture from which to make their purchasing decision.

Although the environmental impact of a mobile phone may seem trivial when compared to say a car or fridge, when you consider the vast volumes of mobiles in circulation across the globe, their impact adds up, said Simon Lee-Smith, O2s Head of Devices. We know more and more customers want this level of product transparency and were very grateful to the handset manufacturers for their engagement with Eco rating.

BlackBerry handsets manufactured by RIM were added to Eco rating earlier this year. 90% of the devices ranged by O2 are included in the scheme.

Eco rating joins other environmental initiatives such as O2 Recycle under O2s Think Big sustainability programme which aims to enable customers to make a real difference for people and the planet. For more information, visit http://www.o2.co.uk/thinkbig.

O2s Sustainability team will be on Twitter at 14:00 BST this Friday, 27 May, to discuss all of O2s environmental initiatives. To take part, follow O2s Twitter account at http://www.twitter.com/o2 and submit a question using #askO2.

A recently published report from Internet Marketing Services has mentioned that the recent software update for Nokia N9 will certainly provide a competitive edge to the product. The research was conducted on the basis of consumer opinion and a comparative study of all the leading smartphones in the market.

This update will provide a lot more features to a phone that is already known for its amazing range of features. It may be recalled that this model from Nokia is brand new in the market and is yes to be introduced in many countries including Canada. This new model from Nokia is known for its superior user interface which is completely different from that found in any other Smartphones.

(PRWEB) November 23, 2011

A recent market research conducted by Internet Marketing Services has indicated that Nokia N9 is going to be a strong competitor of Apple iPhone 4S when it releases globally. The research was conducted considering all the features of the two leading Smartphones in the market. This newly Nokia N9 is not yet available in Canada, and mobile users are eagerly waiting for the Smartphone to arrive with phenomenal features.

The Apple iPhone 4s was released in the Canadian market during the month of October. Market experts are suggesting that comparable features and price will make them close competitors in the Canadian market once Nokia N9 releases in Canada.

“Nokia N9 is undoubtedly the best looking Smartphone that Nokia has released in the last few years” Says Mr.Bonner, “The handset provides amazing durability, thanks to the strong polymer body. The manufacturers have claimed that scratches or dents will not show up because of the scratch resistant polycarbonate casing. Nokia N9 is the first ever fully touch Smartphone that Nokia has manufactured. There is no keypad or button in the front, and the volume and the lock button are on the right side.”

“On the other hand, Apple iPhone 4S has mostly retained the looks of iPhone 4. The built quality is great, but the phone is not as good looking as Nokia N9″ Says Mr. Bonner. In terms of functionality both the phones are packed with state of the art features that are any mobile users dream. It is very difficult to choose between the MeeGo operating system in Nokia N9 and Apple iOS 5 in Apple iPhone 4S.

Both the handsets are equipped with highly advanced 8 Mega pixel cameras with a flurry of features. Apple iPhone 4S holds a slight edge with regards to the pixel density and display resolution. Whereas, Nokia N9 has better feature in terms of its RAM and GPS functionality. Mr. Bonner Says, “Only time will show which one of these two great Smartphones will prove to be the smarter.”

Released within a month of each other, the Blackberry 9000, better known as the Blackberry Bold (May 2008) and the Nokia E71 (June 2008) are obvious rival smartphones from these perennial rival smartphone makers as they look, feel, and function very much alike.Both devices are just about equally sized, at 114 mm x 66 mm x 14 mm for the Blackberry and 114 mm x 57 mm x 10 mm for the Nokia. And both weigh just about the same with the Blackberry weighing in at 133 g to a slightly lighter Nokia’s 127 g.Both devices have a QWERTY keypad occupying the bottom half of the face of the device with a small display screen (2.6 in on the Blackberry, 2.36 in on the Nokia) above it. Interestingly, the display screens on each device possess a quality superior to that of their counterpart. The Blackberry has better resolution, at 480 x 320 pixels to its competitor’s 320 x 240 pixels; but the Nokia has more colors, at 16 million to its competitors meager 65,000.Then, for a matter of simple preference, the Blackberry Bold’s primary navigation is a trackball whereas the Nokia E71 uses a 5-way scroll key. Also a simple matter of preference, the Blackberry runs on the Blackberry OS, the Nokia on the Symbian OS.Other similarities amongst these two candybar competitors are their built-in GPS with mapping capabilities (the Bold using Blackberry Maps, the E71 using Nokia Maps – each coming preinstalled), as well as voice dialing, photo calling, video calling, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth v2.0 with A2DP, and speakerphone. They also both operate on AT&T’s EDGE network and support HSDPA and 3G.Also, both devices sport microSD card slots for expandable memory up to 8 GB, though the Blackberry has more more internal memory, at 1 GB to the Nokia’s 110 MB (both devices have 128 MB onboard RAM though). And both devices have a USB v2.0 port, though the Nokia also has a microUSB port.In terms of multimedia features they each have built in digital cameras, but the Blackberry Bold’s is only 2 megapixels while the Nokia E71′s is 3 megapixels. Both cameras, however, have LED flash and video recording capabilities. Both devices also have a built-in MP3 player.Also worth noting, along these same lines, is that unlike the Blackberry (or most smartphones, for that matter) the Nokia does not have a standard 3.5 mm headphone jack but rather a 2.5 mm audio jack, making headphone and speaker compatibility a bigger issue with the Nokia. The Nokia, however, has an infrared port while the Blackberry does not.You can view Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint documents on both devices, but you can only edit them on the Blackberry.The battery on the Bold gives up to 5 hours of talk time and 310 hours of standby time. The battery on the Nokia gives up to 10 1/2 hours of talk time in 2G or 4 1/2 hours in 3G, and 410 hours of standby time in 2G or 480 hours in 3G.Deciding between these two devices is a tough call, and may come down to extraneous features such as the availability of preferred 3rd party apps. Or you may just prefer the Blackberry operating system to Symbian. You may also lean towards the Blackberry Bold if you want to be able to edit Microsoft Office docs, though you might lean towards the Nokia E71 if you’d rather take crisper digital photos. Really these two devices are quite comparable.
