Nokia App: Elements

By Rodney Garcia | November 3, 2009

Vital data for every element.

Vital data for every element.

There comes a time in a techie’s life when he looks at his Nokia 5800 XpressMusic phone and asks what other purpose it can have aside from making phone calls, typing text messages, listening to mp3 music and other stuff. How about we give you one reason: Presenting Elements from OffScreen Technologies.

What is Elements?

“Elements” is a simple application that displays the table of elements. Yes. You read it right. These are the ones we study in High School which we can’t seem to memorize since they are a lot.

When you launch the application, you will be quickly taken to the familiar arrangement of the table of elements places in a wood-finished background. Each element is color coded with the scientific letter combination shortcut on the squares.

At the upper left corner, you will see a big “I” which will pop the “About Us” window. At the upper right corner, you will see a big “X” which obviously ends the application.

The most logical thing to do (which I know you cannot resist) is touch the screen. When you touch a box, the application will display the information about that element in a neatly arranged pop-up window. You’ll see the name of the element together with its corresponding element letter. Below the name is a roster of details such as atomic weight, boiling point, melting point, density, percent of the earth’s crust, when it was discovery and ionization energy.

Once you’re done, simple tap on the screen the pop-up goes away. Select another one if you like.

Pick an element. Any element.

Pick an element. Any element.

My Take on Elements

I know this application has been on Ovi for month. But I never got the chance to review this. I would say that not all would appreciate this application especially to those who hate science or will not find any use for this application. However, it would not hurt to have this very light file in your applications roster.

Which leads me to a point: Not all things in gadgets are about games and music. I’m glad there are companies who take the time in making applications just like this in the hopes of giving the Nokia 5800 phone more use other than fun stuff. The Nokia 5800 is a great platform for different applications and this one can help someone out there even if it is just for curiosities sake.

I love the way this application displays the vital info on every element. However, we do suggest you use the Nokia 5800’s stylus since the square are small and you can touch an element box that you don’t intend to.

My Verdict on Elements

The Elements application may not be everyone’s cup of tea but it can prove useful someday. Besides, it won’t matter much in disk space since its small compared to some games available in the Ovi Store.

The Elements application can be downloaded for FREE at the Ovi Store. Just register to access the site and download this application straight to your Nokia 5800 XpressMusic phone. Be sure to install the Ovi Store Application in your phone.
