So Much for Nokia’s “Pure” Font

Adam Z. Lein | October 26, 2011 11:29 AM

Back when we saw what we thought were going to be official press images of the Nokia Lumia 800, Long Zheng noticed the use of Nokia’s “Pure” font in the designs. However, now that the new Nokia Windows Phones have been announced, we see that they are still using the default Segoe font that Microsoft created for use in Windows Phone. This is probably a good thing since many of our readers really didn’t like how Nokia’s font looked at all. Still we can speculate that maybe someday Nokia will modify their version of Windows Phone with new font choices, but hopefully it will only be an option in the theme settings.
