Price Challenge: Nokia Lumia 800

Hi guys.

For those who were still in a hangover state after the new year party and did not read my yesterday’s blog, I wish you all, a very Happy new year.

For some (in fact many), 31 Dec of a year means a day of partying and hanging around and going around in pubs or restaurants and getting wasted after some drinks and alcohol.

For me, somehow, it has always been just another day and just another evening. I always spend that evening at my house with my family and always want it to remain same. Many of my friends do have some very good things to say when they hear this, but at the end, they know who I am and that’s y they are there – my friends.

Coming back to our blog for today, I wanted to continue the review on the Nokia Lumia phone but with a different variant of the same, NOKIA LUMIA 800.

I thought that may be it is good to review and look at these 2 phones together, since more or less the specs and the features are same. If you would think of Nokia Lumia 710, you definitely would like to take a look at the brother 800 as well.

So today, I will help you find the sabsecheapest price of the Nokia Lumia 800.

Price Challenge: Nokia Lumia 710

Believe me, its a challenge in itself, besides finding the sabsecheapest price for a product online, to think and find a product for review on the first day of the year.

As i said before, at the start of the blog, it was not at all easy to pick a product, for review on the very first day of the year. I have been thinking for the last 2 days, what should I choose to review and write about. At that moment i had my Nokia E71 in my hands and thought that, i should write about a Nokia phone; a company, which i have used since i began starting using phones. Though for some time, i did have a Siemens phone, but sadly it got lost and i came back to using my new Nokia phone. 
For many people, still, the choice range of phones starts and ends with Nokia. It has been called the most user-friendly phone and definitely it has been. 
So i picked up a Nokia Lumia 710 today for the Sabsecheapest online Price challenge. 


The Lumia 710 runs on the Microsoft Windows Phone Operating System (Mango), a departure from the traditional Symbian OS that has always been associated with Nokia phones. It runs on a Qualcomm MSM8255 Snapdragon chipset and a 1.4GHz Scorpion CPU. For graphics, the phone is installed with an Adreno 205 GPU. The phone comes with a 5MP 2592×1944 pixel camera with autofocus and LED flash. Its features include geo tagging and face detection. Video recording of quality 720 pixel and at rate 30fps can be done using this phone. However, video chat is not possible due to its lack of a secondary camera. 

A quick look at the specs

• Features:  Microsoft Windows Phone 7.5 Mango, Qualcomm MSM8255 Snapdragon, 1.4 GHz Scorpion
• Size & Dimension:  119 x 62.4 x 12.5 mm, 81.1 cc; 125.5 g
• Display:  TFT capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors,  480 x 800 pixels, 3.7 inches (~252 ppi pixel density), Corning Gorilla Glass
• Memory: No Card slot,  8 GB internal storage, 512 MB RAM
• Camera:  5 MP, 2592х1944 pixels, autofocus, LED flash, Geo-tagging, face detection,Video - Yes, 720p@30fps
• Data: GPRS - Class 33,  HSDPA 14.4 Mbps, HSUPA 5.76 Mbps, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth – Yes, USB – Yes
• Stand-by talk Time:  Up to 400 h (2G) / Up to 400 h (3G)
• Has various sensors-  Accelerometer, proximity, compass

Now that we've gone through the specs and the features of the phone, lets get to the difficult and definitely the important task of finding the sabsecheapest price for this phone online.

Price Challenge: The Help, by Kathryn Stockett

Hello friends.

While going through my blogs about the Sabsecheapest price, I realized that much of the last blogs have focused on the latest smart phones and gadgets and were completely techy oriented.

So I thought that today I will deviate from that techy environment of ours and may be drift towards a much sober and relaxed space of the BOOKS.

I remember, some days back I came across a book which, though I didn’t read, but caught my attention. I wrote down the name somewhere and though that may be in coming days I will definitely come back to this one and search more stuff around.

The name of the book was THE HELP, by Kathryn Stockett.

Now if you guys don’t know the author Kathryn Stockett, then definitely it’s not your mistake as this was her debut book.

One fascinating fact about this book is, that this book was rejected by 60 literary agents and when it got finally published it sold five million copies and has spent more than 100 weeks on the The New York Times Best Seller list.

About the Book:

It’s a story of three ordinary women who are about to take one extraordinary step.

First character, Twenty-two-year-old Skeeter has just returned home after graduating from Ole Miss. She may have a degree, but it is 1962, Mississippi, and her mother will not be happy till Skeeter has a ring on her finger. Skeeter would normally find solace with her beloved maid Constantine, the woman who raised her, but Constantine has disappeared and no one will tell Skeeter where she has gone.

The second lady, Aibileen is a black maid, a wise, regal woman raising her seventeenth white child. Something has shifted inside her after the loss of her own son, who died while his bosses looked the other way. She is devoted to the little girl she looks after, though she knows both their hearts may be broken.

Third and the last character, Minny, Aibileen’s best friend, is short, fat, and perhaps the sassiest woman in Mississippi. She can cook like nobody’s business, but she can’t mind her tongue, so she’s lost yet another job. Minny finally finds a position working for someone too new to town to know her reputation. But her new boss has secrets of her own.

Seemingly as different from one another as can be, these women will nonetheless come together for a clandestine project that will put them all at risk. And why? Because they are suffocating within the lines that define their town and their times. And sometimes lines are made to be crossed.

In pitch-perfect voices, Kathryn Stockett creates three extraordinary women whose determination to start a movement of their own forever changes a town, and the way women—mothers, daughters, caregivers, friends—view one another. A deeply moving novel filled with poignancy, humor, and hope, The Help is a timeless and universal story about the lines we abide by, and the ones we don’t.

Now we get down to the business of finding out the Sabsecheapest price of this book and where can you find it online.

Price Challenge: Dell Streak

Considering the fact that I am reviewing and helping everyone find the sabsecheapest price of the Dell Smart phones these days, I won’t let this chance pass by without talking about my life at Dell or if I may passionately call it PerotSystems (though formerly). Initial days at PerotSystems, like any other Software Services company, were like a Honeymoon period or if I can say as, an extension of the college days. Sessions were missed, morning movie shows, Tennis, AOE and CS all through the day and till the wee hours, planning of the outstation trips and definitely the GYAAN from the Academy guys of how important these training sessions are and how much harm and damage, this inconsiderate behavior of ours can do to our career; this pretty much summed up the first 6 months at the company. More of this, I would be revealing later in the subsequent blogs.

Now that we are emotionally engrossed in this discussion, let’s move over to our business of finding the sabsecheapest price.

For today I have selected another of Dell’s smartphone and the last in my Dell series (for now, wish more to come), Dell Streak.

Dell Streak is a device whose 5-inch display makes it either a very large smartphone or a very small tablet computer. The centerpiece of the Dell Streak is its 5-inch, 800 x 480 pixel (WVGA) capacitive touchscreen. Previously known as Mini 5, it uses the Android 1.6 and comes with two cameras, a 5MP one with dual-LED flash on the back and a VGA one on the front for video calling. It has 1 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, 512 MB SDRAM, GPS and Wi-Fi.

A quick peek at the specs

• Features: Android OS v1.6 (Donut), upgradable to v2.2, Qualcomm QSD8250 Snapdragon, 1 GHz Scorpion
• Size & Dimension: 152.9 x 79.1 x 10 mm; 220 g
• Display: TFT capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors, 480 x 800 pixels, 5.0 inches (~187 ppi pixel density), Gorilla glass display
• Memory: 16 GB storage, 512 MB ROM, 512 MB RAM, Card Slot - microSD, up to 32GB
• Camera: 5 MP, 2592х1944 pixels, autofocus, dual-LED flash, Video – Yes, VGA@20fps; 720p after Eclair/Froyo update
• Data: 3G - HSDPA, 7.2 Mbps; HSUPA, 5.76 Mbps, Bluetooth – Yes, USB – Yes
• Stand-by talk Time: Up to 7 h
• Proximity sensor, light sensor and digital compass
• Integrated GPS
• Dedicated, touch-sensitive Back, Start, and Search areas
• FM Radio
• 3.5 mm headset jack

Now let us get into the costing of this phone and see how much money you will have to shell out in order to get this in your hand, and definitely at the sabsecheapest price.

Dell Venue Pro

I continue to work in Dell and so these Dell Phones continue to remain my favorites and thus continues the review of these Dell Smart phones and the search for the sabsecheapest price. 

Talking about Dell, the first thing that comes to my mind is PerotSystems, which was actually the company I worked for. Dell thought of entering into the technology services industry (considering the saturation in the hardware industry and also taking cue from HP foraying into the services business) and thus happened the buyout of PerotSystems by Dell Inc. 

Getting back to the business of hunting down the sabsecheapest price, I took up today another of the Dells Smart phones series – Dell Venue Pro

Before I start discussing the phone specifics and start digging into the technical stuff, I want to make an honest confession. Among all the queries, reviews and price discount questions I have been getting, being a Dell employee, maximum have been targeted at Dell Venue Pro.

This phone features a 4.1” AMOLED touchscreen, 1GHz QSD8250 Snapdragon processor, 5-megapixel auto-focus camera, 8GB internal storage, 512MB RAM, 1GB ROM, GPS, FM Radio and full Flash support including playback.

With its angular cutouts, chrome trim plated sides, and sturdy pattered plastic rear casing, everything about the Dell Venue is characteristically appealing to look at and hold. Even though it’s not the slimmest (0.51” thick) or most compact (5.78 oz) thing we've seen, it’s nevertheless able to capture my attention with its refined design elements.

• Features: Microsoft Windows Phone 7, Qualcomm QSD8250 Snapdragon, 1 GHz Scorpion
• Size & Dimension: 122 x 63.5 x 15.2 mm; 192.8 g
• Display: AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors, 480 x 800 pixels, 4.1 inches (~228 ppi pixel density), QWERTY keyboard with Gorilla glass display
• Memory: 8/16 GB storage, 512 MB RAM, Card Slot - microSD, up to 32 GB
• Camera: 5 MP, 2592х1944 pixels, autofocus, LED flash, Video – Yes, 720p
• Data: 3G - HSDPA, 7.2 Mbps; HSUPA, 5.76 Mbps, Bluetooth – Yes, USB – Yes
• Stand-by talk Time: Up to 7 h
• Proximity sensor, light sensor and digital compass
• Integrated GPS
• Dedicated, touch-sensitive Back, Start, and Search areas
• FM Radio
• 3.5 mm headset jack

Now that we’ve discussed some of the technical aspects of the phone , let’s get to the basic question as to “ HOW MUCH ??“.

Dell Venue

Getting to the business, it’s been days I have been thinking of reviewing the new range of smart phones by Dell; and here I am, starting to write about the Dell Venue and trying to find the sabsecheapest price for this phone available from any online mobile store.

Working in Dell, I am fascinated towards and at the same time a bit biased towards these family of smart phones. So pardon me, if I go overboard with the specifics or somehow hiding the minor flaws.

Many of my friends have been asking about these phones; specially when I can offer them a modest discount of 8 – 10 % on these devices *one of the very few benefits of being in Dell*

 Once known as the Thunder, the Dell Venue is an Android 2.2 Froyo smartphone which features a large and chromatically rich 4.1-inch, 800×480 AMOLED touchscreen. It packs a 1GHz QSD 8250 processor under the hood, and can potentially carry up to 32GB of data via an extendable microUSB card. The 8-megapixel camera is a mixed bag full of settings — white balance, flash, exposure, multiple focus modes and color effects; all make the Venue's camera one of the most full featured phone cameras around.

• Features: Android OS, v2.2 (Froyo), 1 GHz Scorpion
• Size & Dimension: 121 x 64 x 12.9 mm; 164 g
• Display: AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors, 480 x 800 pixels, 4.1 inches (~228 ppi pixel density)

IPhone 4S 16GB

Today I have finally decided to take up one of the most talked / ranted / gossiped about phone worldwide for the sabsecheapest review.

Honestly speaking, selecting an Apple product for review comes with its biasing towards the brand and definitely a fascination towards the iPhone. What is with this brand that attracts clients and fans across the globe, reviewers waiting to evaluate an Apple product, other companies launching their best to compete alongside; this definitely is an all-together different discussion.

Let’s only focus on the newest in their iPhone series iPhone 4S.

It also improves connectivity a notch, bringing 14.4Mbps HSPA download speeds. The back is where an 8-megapixel camera resides and it's capable of recording 1080p videos. iPhone 4S RAM size the same as of its predecessor and is 512MB but Apple have expanded the storage options for the iPhone 4S, and you can now choose a 64GB model in addition to the 16GB and 32GB versions that have been available before for iPhone 4.
