Some guy from Greece, 19 Jan 2011Wrong wrong and wrong... Nokia sells because "of na... more*sigh* I never said apple didn't sell because of brand loyalty did I? Apple has brand loyalty, however they also are innovative. They made smart phones easily accessible to your every day joe. Apple took the smart phone something usually for business users and geeks and made it something an everyday person can use. Notice how the mobile phone market increased in full touch screen devices AFTER the release of the iphone(Same thing here with your Nokia buddy, they started releasing full touch screen devices as well bandwagon much?) same with the ipad and tablets. Nokia has been great in the past, there is no denying it. E71 was a solid device, solid performer, however the N97 sold a lot of units even though it is a horrible device? Brand Loyalty right there kid. Yeah check over Nokia's financial reports, their QOQ margins for profits are just thin barely keeping them in the black. Yeah im sure Nokia is just downsizing their work force because they feel they're efficient enough to run with half as many employees right? Just like how Symbian runs efficiently with half the amount of resources! Just wait till Nokia pops up with not enough resource errors at headquarters! Sales figures of devices don't lie, while Samsung, Motorola, HTC, and Apple have no problem boasting their sales figure for their flag ship, nokia hides its tails between its legs and replies with "we sold a lot of devices! we won't tell you how much! but we Sold them!"

I don't know about that. Can't remember if they ever didn't have a reason to brag. (top sellers yet for another year, 2010)

Nokia sells because "of name brand loyalty"? Wasn't that Apple? Correct me if i'm wrong but i don't see how a company from Filand can acquire brand loyalty in foreign markets. Unless their products have been really good, for too long to be ignored.
Apple sells lots of products and can project their brand image through a number of ways, not just phones. It is the easier for them. Thus they can't compare with Nokia.
Speaking of which, it has so many data about their sales, very detailed and for many years not just the last one, right on their site: http://www.nokia.com/about-nokia/financials/quarterly-and-annual-information (Makes sense of course, when you are the top seller worldwide for over a decade to post your sales figures) I think then that the "We did really good, we won't tell you the exact numbers, but its huge" logic seems to be part of Apple's PR - as we can see from the article.

I doubt it will sell more than a million units.
Everybody will want dual core this year.
With 660MHz single core, 256 MB RAM , 360x640 screen resolution, when the others have AT LEAST 1GHz single core processor(50% faster), MINIMUM 512 MB RAM (100% more) and minimum 480x800 screen resolution (67% more), and at THIS PRICE, NOKIA is just laughable:)))).
Take Atrix for example:
-dual core processor at 1GHz ( 300% faster)
-qHD(540x960) resolution (225% more pixels)
-1GB RAM (390% more RAM)
-probably LOWER PRICE.

Anonymous, 19 Jan 2011I laugh at android fans that bash nokia because of their OS... moremy HD2 running Android NAND last over a full day before needing to recharge. My Motorola Defy and my Samsung Vibrant(Galaxy S) lasted about 18 hours. I don't know about you but charging the device while I sleep is not a problem, but im sure you wouldn't know anything since you're stuck on Nokia. You probably heard exaggerated stories from Deep Space Bar telling you how android devices last only like 5 hours and believed his fairy tales. LOL. Yeah keep dreaming buddy. You Nokia kids keep touting usb OTG, but you gotta carry a USB adapter for that to work. So you're telling me carrying a USB Adapter for USB OTG doesn't bother you yet you're whining like a girl if you gotta carry a USB charger? AHAHA that's some seriously funny logic you got there.
Nokia fanboy: "You androids are so stupid, you gotta carry around a USB chord to charge your device!"
Android user: "uhh isn't that a USB chord you're carrying around as well?..."
Nokia fanboy: "don't be such a n00b! LOLZ1111!! this is for USB OTG!"
Android user: "right... so you still gotta carry around a USB cable"

deep space bar, 19 Jan 2011like i said 6 hours on android is 12 on symbian NO PROBL... moreI laugh at android fans that bash nokia because of their OS. People tend to forget how important batter life truly is. Without that, your OS with all the fancy eyecandy shit won't even matter. The fact that you have to go through hell makin adjustments for your android battery life to perform well is foolish and stupid. With Nokia, just charge your phone til it's complete and you're good to go. Not android though. I heard the EVO has the worst battery life out of all androids. You gotta get an extended battery.

Obviously you don't read into your own fanboy articles as most of those OS's besides linux and OSX are just virtulization environments. So it boots OSX but it is uselessly slow? Your point? HD2 booted up MeeGo too? hahaha HD2 also runs ubuntu as well.
I apologize for not clarifying the requirements of MeeGo.
http://mobiputing.com/2010/11/meego-1-2-hardware-requirements-unveiled/
Here you go. MeeGO 1.2 will require atleast 512MB ram, guess this throws all you Nokia fanboys about how Symbian and Meego is so efficient that it can run on less resources right?
So lets see HD2 boots into Meego, Linux, Windows 6.5, Windows 7, Android. So once again, if N900 was such a good device why the need for multiple OS? I mean I get it from a hackers view point that they want to do it, but to the average consumer? Do they care? No. I hear that a lot of N900 users are interested in getting rid of maemo for android on the N900? I thought the N900 was such a good device and maemo/meego was so awesome? So why so many N900 users awaiting NITDroid for a rock solid build of android to dump Meego/Maemo?

It is about the price of HTC Desire Z, but E7 has for example free navigation, a physically bigger screen, solid build and better kamera. I would go for the E7. HTC is a bit plastic...

At least this has a 4" screen. I like the look of it.
Is the camera using the same dual LED as the N86?

So your reasoning that you bought the 5800 was because you didn't want an iphone? Even though there were plenty of touch screen devices on the market way better than the 5800? Same with the N900? The N900 won't be able to run MeeGo due to MeeGo hardware requirements. You consider it a beast of a device because? Because it can boot different OS? how many of those OS's are you gonna use? IF it was such a nice device why the need to port other OS if it was already complete package? You know the reason why XDA comes up with ports for the HTC HD2 was because windows 6.5 sucks right? So obviously you do buy Nokia phones just because they're Nokia. Anyways back on topic... 600 Euros huh? Nokia might sell a couple thousands, i doubt this thing will sell in huge numbers. Knowing Nokia they will never disclose sales figures unless its a number they can brag, but these days there aren't much Nokia can brag about. Wait I know, Nokia can brag about how they're downsizing their company while others are increasing their work force! Nokia can brag about how they're closing their retail stores while Apple talks about how they need to open more stores!

i don't own a nokia booklet3G
cause i know i was bad
i never bought the N96 or N97 cause i know they where bad
i got the n900 cause it's a beast of a device and still is
i got the n8 cause the camera performance is top quality WHICH NO ONE HAS ON THE MARKET
i got the 5800 cause i didn't want a crappy iphone
so people don't get phone from nokia cause of the brand it's cause they DO GOOD at what they do and more

Apple just posted huge profits based almost entirely on its iphone line since ipods and ipad sales didn't meet projections. Lets wait till Nokia post their profits to compare, but knowing how nokia is they'll just say something like this "We did really good, we won't tell you the exact numbers, but its huge". Much like how they always answer when people ask their sales figures of N8 and N900 devices. ;)
