If you don't like this site, there are billion other sites you can go to. If you dont like something then move along! YOu have the freedom to choose, your government doesn't force you to open this website and read! We are all humans, everyone has bias towards something... If i own a website of course i will show more of the things i like then others... I think GSMarena has done a very good job at showing most of what everyone likes. Furthermore, if a popular site like this one tells you that Nokia is good, then you should think twice why Nokia is so good LOL!

          ...!, 11 Feb 2010Nokia is not anywere near greatest phone, I've had few of t... moreFirst of all, Nokia is absolutely the best and I can tell you this from experience. My first black and white phone wasn't a Nokia and my first colour phone wasn't a Nokia either. I later learnt that whether it be black and white or colour, you simply can't go wrong with a Nokia. They make the strongest and most sensible phones in my opinion. I have had series 30, 40 and presently 60. With a Nokia you don't have to worry about your phone dying from water catching it or smashing to pieces from falling to the ground. Nokia have proven their reliability over and over again.

          Also, Nokia still remembers that the primary purpose for a phone is making calls so they focus a lot on telephony and contact management. Most other manufacturers focus more on multimedia than telephony...leaving you wanting more in the telephony department.

          Where this new PUMA PHONE is concerned I'm happy for them. I wouldn't be surprised if they included wallpapers / screen savers of my fellow country man USAIN BOLT the fastest man in the world!

          PUMA welcome to the world of mobile phones.

                I think it IS relevant for GSMArena to focus on the most popular and world's largest manufacturer of mobile phones! That's what a majority of readers want to read about.

                    The Puma phone shows, what it can be all about, still without even showing anything: People want to be unique! People want to show their style! A handset is something you have with you all day, so it must be stylish and fit to you. If other producers thought more about this, they'd sell much more - if they only did more unique devices instead of mainstream copycats. Puma will maybe show how it can work.

                          Nokia is not anywere near greatest phone, I've had few of them and with all of them (diffrent models) I had bad problems. Nokia always gaved me hard time and didn't want to fixe them even if it eas phones maulfunction. Same with a lot of people I know that have nokia, they also have some problems , so the nokia is just one big cra... , It was maybe great in the begining bt now it only lives on old fame and slowly sinking like Titanic... To many new brands offer to much new better thing in phones and I belive and hope Nokia will soon be as much out of buisniss as possible...

                            Mick actually if it can be charged through the solar panels isn't this one of the first mobile phones that's actually energy efficient enough to save environment? Quite the opposite direction to pollution, don't you think?

                                      but pretty much every nokia smartphone with a accelerometers can be turned into a sports phone, thats sick
