Nokia is on route to posting next quarterly results at a loss

10 June, 2011
We already knew Nokia was expecting a lower profit in the second quarter of the fiscal year, but according to analysts, Nokia won't even make any profit whatsoever. According to a recent report,...

      Nokia sucks, its not Apple or the android phones who are to be blamed, its the Nokia quality which is making Q2 and Q3 a nightmare.

          Ironically Symbian activity is on the rise. Symbian is a great OS, it was the top Management that didn't handle it properly and slowed it down... And This Stephen Elop is no different; he doesn't understand that Nokia is different and not neccessarily bad. To each their own, and to me and all Nokia users; Symbian is our choice of OS. I'm telling you all right now, this Windows transition is only trouble; Elop either leaves Microsoft or leaves Nokia. He should go back to Microsoft if he doesn't like Nokia and Symbian!

                The BIG boat is sinking. Nokia should accept android. WP7 is still on its process.

                  Why am I not surprised, I also changed my Nokia to an Android phone, and I don't regret, even if I was a big fan NOKIA...

                    Old Nokia User, 10 Jun 2011The nokia is getting what they deserve. Nokia thought that ... morewhy are all of you saying that nokia fails with wp7? haha...don't make an opinion here if you don't try it yet...i think one of the commenters here are workers of apple trying to write bad about nokia...i believe that their knees are shaking because the big event of nokia is coming...!!!

                    android is not the option for nokia..wp7 is the right choice...if everybody understand about busines, you can realize why nokia switch to wp7 instead of android...nokia cannot differentiate its products if it is go through android...(they said...RIM is the nxt PALM,,, and ANDROID is the nxt SYMBIAN)

                    the true horses here is between iOS and wp7...haha
                    nokia..ur the one

                      like iphone and android are a hit now . i think nokia is a thing in the pass. with the new window 7.5 nokia coming out which i think is another lost for nokia. not alot of peoples likes windows because they are famous for there phone freeze up like the window mobile 6 and up. my recommendation is to fellow what is a hit now make a good device that have atleast a 4 inch screen, a good battery life, and have a android operating system on for the people . i mean the customer. if that happen i think nokia profile with rise again and they will be number again like in the ninths...

                        Dislike. :(
                        but Elop is the one to blame aside from the successful iOS and Android OS... Nokia mixed all things up...Nseries got a QWERTY pad w/c the Eseries is made for (though 6820 has a qwerty pad too). Also their naming of phones. there comes the Classic, 8GB, which they used to distinguish the original ones from the upgraded one. those names aren't used by Nokia these days because maybe even them find it impractical to use as a name..
                        Symbian is behind iOS and Android just because of its sluggish interface(before), but now they're catching up. Symbian is VERSATILE compare to other OS its just that it's slow in a way maybe because of the lack of RAM. Nokia is really an eye-candy even before, its just that now other manufacturers are more artistic than them.. Example is the THEMES, Nokia captivated the users by dozen of those available in the internet for free downloads. next is Java games and Support for almost all the Formats available in the world.. they're also uber user-friendly compare to others(the system of their touch is only the problem but is also solved now... ^_^) Nokia is a very good organizer too!! their cameras are also competing with Cyber-shot phones by S.E. meaning they are one of the best(w/c happens to be the position of the N8 now! next is the Samsung Pixon12 and the Satio...
                        Another is nokia's legibility to sunlight, keypad press-feedback(example is my Nokia 7500 Prism, it looks hard to use but once you type on it it is much softer to Nokia 6300's keypad.. ^_^ promise!)
                        Nokia's design are also unique and one of the best(6700classic and many more!)

                        Nokia is just PRACTICAL to users and i guess it's just right.. :) proof? they reign for years and one of cause of their success is Symbian.. :) Another one that causes Nokia's sales to go down is When Elop says they will still continue producing Symbian phones or giving updates for Symbian but up to 2016 only.
                        He's a shame!!!!!!! i don't like him. He abandoned Symbian in the simplest way!.. >.<
                        He'll suffer soon because of what he did but the sad part is, Nokia is behind him whem he goes down, same goes with Nokia... the best thing to do is to fire him..hahahaha.. :D

                        I love Nokia so much... :(

                        --> by the way I'm a Nokia 7500 Prism, N73 M.E., and Sony Ericsson K850i Cyber-shot user...

                        Nokia is Impeccable and it's a FACT... (i don't need your opinion Apple and Android users.. :p )

                            Major sells of Nokia phönes are here, but cheap companies like maxx, karbonn, micromax, ajanta, lava,... are competing with nokia due to lesser price, but Nokia is Nokia.... I am eagerly waiting for Wp7 nokia device but thinking, why microsoft kin devices fail to prove a better os in their vain. Nokia just need a better Os, its h/w is perfect but lacks due to Os, if nokia gets a good Os, then Nokia will be no. 1 company in world. Hope wp7 rocks with Nokia... ... Best of luck for future..... your one fan in millions.

If only Nokia keep quiet(burning platform-scares the loyal symbians!!!)...at that time, Nokia still selling more phones...WP7 solely is a mistake...should take android too...Nokia is jumping into the fire with Stepen Elop!!!!

                                      Nokia does build superb premium handset, I give them that.
                                      I was looking yesterday at an E7 after beeing disapointed by the size of SGS 2.
                                      It does fit very nice in hand, it does have a quality build feelig but what's the use if it still carry the now dead Symbian?
                                      It's like seeing a superbly crafted casket.
                                      Yeah it's spectacular but inside is still a dead body!
                                      Would have they switch to Android it would have been the move on the years in mobile handset market.
                                      Going instead from a dead OS to a dying one is the single most stupid decision ever.
                                      To quote Elop's infamous memo, they've not only jumped from the burning oil rig into the flaming sea but they also took great care to pour oil on them to be 100% they'll burn!

                                        hey folks! don't play sarcasm with each other. symbian was a ruler and still rules. android is a powerful player too. Nokia and symbian did a big mistake by not upgrading symbian OS and stuck upon their proud. so people got bored on same thing. android , who came to people for something else against symbian did very well. on the other hand Samsung delivers latest tech. with low cost price whilst Nokia with same tech takes high price. so you'd choose what Samsung would offer! low cost,high tech,eye candy handsets.
