Dude, get over yourself, the totality of Symbian phones weren't otg enabled compared to the plethora of Android phones. IOS is indeed boring to use, that's a fact. But in no way, i got bored of Android, after 7 years, IOS hasn't changed but Android changed a lot.

Microsoft had a lot of potential with Windows mobile, yet they effed up big time and Kai OS in all of that?? I think that shiit died because I don't see any phones launched with Kai os recently

It only enlightened me about the feature of our world dramatically which projects its future. For your information, I didn't reply to your comment but commented back. There is a lot of difference between a comment and reply. This GSMarena column is an open book and is not your private blog. Anyone can comment and reply to any other's post(s). Thanks for asking me to smile. I think, you will never mind if I laugh. Good luck.

By the way your comment is so pathetic, if you don't like my comment save your energy and don't reply on it, simple as it is. Probably that is too hard for you to understand, it's bitter to hear but a fact is a fact as you said. Have a wonderful day and don't forget to smile now and then!

        United Nation, 19 Dec 2023Easy there, why so much hostility?I am not hostile or sarcastic, by the way. I just speak and always speak facts in raw format. Also, the fact is that some facts are always bitter. But facts are always facts and can't vanish on account of our likes. Even the term reality is an illusion but, no one is ready to accept that. We know who we are only if we wake up from sleep tomorrow. If we don't wake up, the reality that surrounds us vanishes. Our planet is not even a piece of dust in the Universe but, our wants are always bigger than the whole Universe. We have forgotten the meaning of contentment which is the root of happiness. Instead we always seek, short lived pleasures all the time. We forget to realise that our harmony and happiness deteriorates with growth of technologies. We all day dream of everything by deteriorating Mother Earth. The greatest bitter fact is that, God will not save us.

Will it not be interesting to become some other living being or thing in this world or go to another planet or galaxy to become something else to exploit something more?

                Bring back the symbian OS with highend chipset snapdragon 8 gen2 and flat back glass cover wirh design curve 4 corners and you will be dominate in the market. If you stay low end chipset and design is like this no way can interest more buyers and you will stay below... You find what is the most important. Number 1.chipset, 2. quality and 3. Design

                      Majority of low end budget phones these days come with at least 180hz or 240hz touch sample rates.

                      There is NO excuse for the g42 screen to lags & not always register touches. This proves the g42 is using cheap screens & is major quality issue.

                      Anyone denying touch lag issue with g42 is lying. I've tried 2, and each one had delayed laggy touch response. There are also hundreds of other comments online from other g42 users that say same thing

                          Nokia should work more on two things

Just a smooth phone for daily tasks and all. Touch input is alright, nothing bad, also not the best obviously cause for that price you can't except the same experience as 1000 plus euro flagships. Just an overall good and very functional phone that has a couple of extra benefits other phones don't have, I say the added repairability.

The NFC issue you have is either a bug or you have adjusted something in the Settings because you don't have to toggle NFC to use.
