Symbian is a laggy OS and will always be even the 3^ is laggy and unstable. If nokia wants to compete with a propreitary OS at least they must develop an OS from sctrach like Samsung did with bada, Bada is an amazing OS, too bad there's not any hackers who are intersting in it right now. nokia will keep going down

Anonymous, 11 Aug 2010I think he was comparing the LG gt540 to the nokia 5250....... moreok, right, but you can't compare the LG with the 5250, I was using the equivalent in nokia offer today, the 5250 is a mystery for now, no one knows how much will it cost, if this is the 100 euro smartphone with the carriers support the price will be so low that will hurt badly any other low cost smartphone. The LG is a great offer but the price is way much for people that actually isn't aware of what is buying and is in search of simplicity with some extras.

If i have to choice between the 2, i would go for the LG myself. Android 1.6 v S60 is a no brainer :)

In my country you can get the same LG 150 euro pay as you go, and you get nokia 5228 for half of that, isn't that cheaper?? A smartphone for less than 100 euro isn't cheap enough for you??? Are you aware that people that buy that kind of smartphones usually buy dumb phones? That's it, it's magical! A Smartphone for the price of a dumb phone! And there you go why nokia is selling so well...

Guys.READ THIS.TAKE FR A BLOG.SO
ifans and android fans.Pls kill s60
first b4 commenting android or iOS
is the best smartphone OS
---
SO WHO WINS?
I am not saying we'll
know the winners in this
year or the next. But I do
suggest that the battle
for the smartphone OS
today, is a battle for this
decade and the next, not
just for this quarter and
the next. There will be
winners, and the power
of an Android or
Symbian (and Nokia's
evolution path to MeeGo)
or Bada is far far more
than that with Palm/HP
or RIM or Apple iOS or
even Microsoft Phone 7.
This battle did not start
in 2007 when the iPhone
launched, nor in 2009
when Android launched.
The battle started a
decade ago. The iPhone is
a blip on the radar and is
meaningless in the long
war for the OS. We have
recently seen
newcomers join the
battle, but there was a
time when Microsoft's
Windows Mobile
powered 3 out of every
10 smartphones. There
was a time when Palm
was the world's second
bestselling smartphone.
There are new rivals
today, but the
smartphone was
invented by Nokia. The
giant of smartphones,
when Palm challenged it
was Nokia. Palm died in
that contest. The giant
when Microsoft
challenged for the
smartphone market was
Nokia. Microsoft lost its
2nd place and is today
lingering in 5th place.
The giant when RIM
challenged for it, was
Nokia. RIM growth has
stalled and is now on a
plateau or even
declining. The giant when
Apple challenged it, was
Nokia. Apple's iPhone
reached its peak market
share in 2009 and is now
in decline. Now the
newest challenger is
Android.

Froyo isn't available for most of the android phones yet, yeah, I don't spend my days home flashing my phone with the latest hacked OS versions and crying because I don't have a personal life. Anyway, where is froyo in the low smartphone market??? How old are you??? 10??? Need a little help reading what the other people write?
LOW END IS NOT HIGH END!!! Comprende??? You can't compare a 500 euro phone with one that costs 100, is 5 times less!!! And android sucks on a low specs hardware, symbian is fine for that! Do you understand???

I will always laugh over this. Majority of the people dont buy phones over $200. That's why more nokia users. How many people are using the n97, iphone 4, samsung galaxy ?. Pls!! I am begging u, if u get money use it to buy good food and grow well, rather than buying these idiots expensive phones, especially the master idiot "iphone 4"

Yeah, right, none! And android, gosh is the new iOS, fanboys everywhere praising it God knows why... Bought my first android phone last week, 2 days after it went back, I hated it, sorry but I did, I'm not buying one of these low end symbian but at least the OS don't feel unfinished like android does.
