Samsung drops all Symbian support by the end of December

01 October, 2010
And when we say all, we really mean it. By the end of December Samsung will close its Symbian forums, developer site and will remove all Symbian-related documentation and data from its servers. Ouch!

    When will ppl realise that SE and Samsung sell nothing! Half products...
    They sell something and never give suport and updates, they just test things on buyers, thats all!
    Samsung will never ever be 1st in mobile industry!
    I would just love to know how many Waves are they fixing right now!?

        Lxs, 01 Oct 2010Samsung cares. They care about new potential customers. But... moreI'm with you on this one,smacksung treats you as golden when they offered their products,once that crapsung got your money you're trash,that's why i hate samsung most compare to other brands,they cheat customers a lot by saying great things of their devices in reality they're using low quality hardware and very horrible in software dev.

        Symbian sucks but samsuck is the real sucker.

          This is really really really unprofesional and sad!
          Ppl from samsung just showed who they really are!
          When it was good and symbian was popular they used it, and now they turn their backs to symbian like they never haved anything with it!
          Samsung just want money money and more monry and they will do everything for money and to be first!
          SE is death anyway!
          Samsung i hope your stupid ugly bad-a sucks, just like im sure it will and then u will cry for symbian!
          Go nokia!!! N8 will be best selling phone this and next year!
          Samsung will always be just 2nd...

                        Samsung cares. They care about new potential customers. But if you've already bought their device and money paid, they'll treat you like a piece of shite. They've already got your money.

                            And like we never saw this coming...

                            Samsung HAS NO CUSTOMER FOLLOW UP, never had it nor will ever have in smartphone market.

                            Greedy to the bone.

                            And no, I won't be buying your phones that has nothing to do with reality of the state of things.

                            Samsung sucks and they are proving it in the open!

                              Its just because of jealous to Symbian and Nokia which is leading from almost one decade.

                                Why are they closing the forums and all stuff? What happens now with the symbian phones from them? If they didn't want to manufacture anymore, ok, but why to close the forum and everything?!

                                  Samsung has its own OS BADA . So good luck to all you Samsung Android users.

                                      Strange timing by both SE and Samsung - Symbian^3 is just coming through, and from the little I have used it the usability for touch interfaces is greatly improved. If the Nokia N8 kicks off and sells well and relaunches Symbian as a viable platform, then they may well end up kicking themselves for dropping it.

                                      But, at the same time, Samsung do have TouchWiz, Bada, and Android (plus the occasional Windows) all going on, so do they really need another platform to develop for? Maybe the streamlining makes sense from that point of view.
