2toyzki, 29 Jan 2011REAL Multitasking?
USB on the Go?
Full customizations inc... more1. real multitasking? I've been able to multitask on my android since it's released on G1.
2. USB on the go is a driver capability, Android and iOS has no need for it so why would they want to implement it?
3. I can customize my user interface on android with 1 finger I dont' need to download themes or go through 3-4 menus just to add a widget. I can re-size any widget with a finger, can move them onto multiple panes.
4. Android has SMB and can network between samba and Windows networking. I can actually move files around on my network via wifi between servers.
5. Why Mobil TV when there's netflix or streaming? Netflix is gonna be on Android, wheres netflix for Symbian?
6. Android has given free Navigation way before Ovi maps was free(if you want i can provide links with factual evidence).
7. people still use push to talk?
8. Mm didn't N8 just recently get Subtitle support? iOS and Android has had subtitle support for a while and theirs is more robust, can show many more languages. N8 had a 2GB file limit, guess what Android and iOS didn't.
9. Who would want to transfer files at the slow rate BT offers when they have USB cables?
10. Ohhh you have a point there, Symbian can run meego apps. Can Symbian run Android or iOS apps then? Android can run android apps, iOS can run iOS apps.
11. Who still needs an FM radio on their mobile device when they can just put mp3 at higher bit rates and be commercial free?

[deleted post]okay, here i go with one fact that most will understan easy as a fact betwen symbian and android devices, that symbian can do, while android can not!
Nokia can use and turn ON/OFF camera flash light as a FLASH LIGHT without turning on camera or keeping on screen, where most of androids does not have flash light at all, how about that droid leego!
I can easy name other facts to that nokia is stil superior compare to android devices!
Don't worry, i had droid phone on my hand and operated lot of things on it, because i used to hear hype going on with it lately.
With symbian you can play favorit music on the background and chose a movie to watch simultaneously without disrupting sound and keep downloading one other movie from internet, btw how will you do that on android when droid is completely based on java code....

Different company have their own different goals. Others is to produce high end phone and smart phone other are more on the friendliness to the users and other have powerful OS..Think about it there's no point in arguing which is the best and which is the worst..I belived nokia will fall because of their phones as of today and samsung is catching up as well as other company..I guess all we have to do is to wait what will happen this 2011 to see who will prevail..peace guys!

marc , 29 Jan 2011hey i like the stuff you saying dude youre a loyal nokia su... moreDifferent architectures of GPU. the PowerVR series is very CPU dependent(SoC) hence when pared with a highly efficient CPU that offloads information with one another the Galaxy S is able to hit 90Million Triangles/Second. However this should not be an indication of GPU performance. You should be looking at fill-rates in which the PowerVR 540 is ridiculously powerful when compared to the BCM2727. Also the BCM2727 combined with the ARM11 weak pos CPU hinders it a lot. It has the potential to be a powerful rendering gpu but not with the cpu in the N8. Also the RAM in the BCM2727 is only 32MB and it has performance hits in buffer swaps. Is the BCM2727 a capable GPU? It is, given the right application. Like I said, compare the fill rates, with the N8 your resolution is only 320x640 so meaning in one frame the BCM2727 can render 204,800 pixels, running at 60fps that is 12.28 million pixels, where as in Galaxy S it is at 480x800 meaning one frame is 384000 pixels, running at 60fps at which the Galaxy S can do easily that is 23million pixels. Obviously I don't need to tell you which is more powerful.

i cant understand why everybody hates nokia and symbian so much? a couple of years back symbian was the best os out there but now with america's two os's apples stupid ios and googles stupid android theyre suddenly the best. why everyting always about america? the US is already trying to take over the world and now trying to take over cellphones LOL. why is it that if nokia cant sell in the US then nokia is failling? while when ios and android's sales in the US is good then theyre suddunly so amazing. Why is that? I cant believe that people are so frickin one dimensional and think that ios and android is beter then symbian because it looks better lol. you ios and android fanboys are under americas mindcontrol, they want you to believe ios and android are the best, so go and listen to them.

The only reason why it gets comparable benchmarks to some android devices is because guess what? N8 operates at a lower resolution and puts less strain on the GPU. I guess you would think that an ATI X800 running at 30 fps at a resolution of 640x480 is as good as an Nvidia GT460 running at 30 fps at a resolution of 1920x1200 huh? lol.. fail.

black bird, 29 Jan 2011ya MAC you are right. camera without AF is worthless. as i ... moreThe changes are coming. It should usher in a new era for nokia and herald a turning point in not only that type of thinking but in strategy too. They have admitted their shortcomings and made some changes. Unfortunately i believe one or two more senior managements heads must roll to end the old and bring in the new....unless Elop is microsofts trojan horse! I think nokia will reveal some awesome new devices and shock us with its new strategy (positively i hope) at mwc. I have my thoughts on what may happen but lets wait and see. Lets wait and see. Keep in mind, nokia want in on the US market. They messed up with the very mentallity that they had previously that you are unhappy about (and me too!) so its time for change. The customer has spoken, has nokia listened? We'll see in less than 3 weeks time.

I dont have a problem with the camera of my Nokia 8MP Fixed-focus cam. I have my DSLR anyway. You haters just dont get it. We are talking here about quality of the phones we buy. Yeah Iphone is good quality but the price?!?! I can buy two Nokia N9 for the price of the Iphone 4. Nokia is the best among the rest. That's why its number one. You think other consumer brands (TV, Cars, Computers, etc.) are number one selling but not good quality? We users go for brands that its our money's worth. NOt for those too expensive high-end brands but as what ive said, TOO EXPENSIVE.

[deleted post]sadly, lots of people get attracted by those, especially the knockoff ones. Same/lower price as a nokia feature phone but with wifi, tv-tuner, dual/triple sims etc. Legit companies take the blow.

Their slogan about "technology, what will you do with it", what is the point? People can't understand that romantic slogan. They should learn from Apple how to promote their products. Nokia thinks it has strong brand, this is true acctually, but that's not enough to be succesful. Nokia, S3 has immense potential in midrange sector, please don't make mistakes again. They might be fatal. If Nokia accept android, they will lose a lot of loyal customers. Please Nokia, be strong and wise, beat apple and samsung, you are still able to tear them down. Hire best engeeners and programmers, pay them 2x, 3x salary to do things faster! People can't wait long.
