nothing new here, again. My C7 remains relevant. Phew!

The X7 looks cool, like a device out of Tron! But the hardware specs for Nokias on symbian^3 hardly seem to budge. Differentiation seems to be a matter of aesthetic preference now.

      Prophet Of Doom, 12 Apr 2011Symbian 3 is vastly underrated. Mostly by Android fanboys w... moreSorry to say that but if Symbian is vastly criticized, it is for a reason. Not just Android or IOS fanboys are criticizing Symbian but numerous tech blogs. Symbian's market share is going down really fast, it is for a reason also. It is true that Symbian was amazing in the past, I can even say in advance of its time. But the truth is that we can't stay in the past and many people are starting to switch. Android offers flexibility, multiples resolutions, a large appstore with 200 000 and more apps and most of them are free, amazing integration of Google services which is praised by many, however you can still use other email if you want.....then there is Symbian, I can't deny that Symbian is amazing in Non-Touch phone, it has many features...however, symbian is based on Avkon UI, Nokia and the majority of the peoples agree that Nokia's UI is not up to date, peoples are complaining that Symbian is laggy, even Symbian^3, 680 might be sufficient for most task, however what about playing something on the web, it won't be enough....However, I'm glad to see that people are leaving Symbian, it's market share is going down fast, one day very few people will use Symbian,it's a good thing because it will leave space for newer platforms which will get better than Symbian once matured(as with Android now)...you will be within the few who is still using it...and one day you will cease using it and try using other platforms...then you will realize that you wasted your time defending Symbian because there were better out there

              e6 screen is too small. samsung galaxy pro and moto champ have 2.8 inches screen. Nokia has made a grave mistake here. When the will ever learn!

                    Here's the news for you:
                    Symbian^3 devices can play almost any video format. They can play HD (720p) videos. And I don't need 1080 ON A PHONE!

                      Can't want to buy my first NOKIA smartphone, E6. That's how BlackBerry should have been to offer both business and looks not only in hardware but also in OS. Several screens to put widgets and put one's fav apps outside is the mind-blowing feature. Now the only thing left is to get developers to develop for NOKIA and increase number of apps. Can't see any reason why NOKIA can't beat Android, iOS.

                        first of all nice update.. symbian is still trying to compete with android.. but one thing that is annoying is the fixed focus camera.. what is the sense of having an 8mp camera if its fixed focus??? 5mp autofocus is better!!! why are they keep on making phones with such specs? btw screen resolution has always been good in nokia phones.. keep it up.. more than 30 phones will still arrive.. and all i want is a nokia android phone.. :) im still hoping lol...

                              Beautiful devices...a shame WP7 is going to replace Symbian. As to me, I am going to stick with Symbian^3 as long as it will be available, no matter how loud naysayers bark (Google, anyone?)
