            AnonD-4697, 24 Aug 2011You can't make a NEW OS run on old phones... And I don't... morei understand what you said ,my comment is just a request to Nokia to release this new update as soon as possible ,bcoz they have indicated it in their website. and i am not forcing a company to produce an os to devices that does not support this new os(i do not consider it as new os it is an improvement to current os and it is extraordinary ) i am sorry if you get it in the wrong way

              Symbian is a light OS. With 1ghz processor and graphics co-processor, with a faster clock and four times the graphics memory of previous Symbian smartphones, it will act like android with dual core processor inside. Nokia rocks

                      What are you lots complaining about this time? These are not Nokia's high-end phones. I would say it's mid-range, except the C7 twin 701, that looks more classy and carries an 8mp camera. So again, don't expect everything good is going to appear in these handsets.

                        The 701 seems an exact copy of the C7 with CBD and an upgraded processor. Makes me wonder if Nokia will update the C7 to Belle. Either way, there's a choice for all tastes now.

                          Nokia must realize symbiam & WP7 can coexist. HTC, Samsung & LG they have WP7 & android right.

                            Lets hope these gets nokia backon track.
                            Im relieved they didnt put the dumb wp7 in them.
                            But sad they rejected the android killing meego.

                            Its too bad that even in belle symbian phones continue their low ppi nhd resolution.
                            Nokia find a solution for the display res.

                                    To NOKIA Management, Why are you sticking with the "fixed-focus lens"?. The specs of Symbian Belle are almost perfect but some people will hesitate to buy these phones because of fixed-focus lens. It is better if the camera lens of these phones are "autofocus" or even a Carl Zeiss lens. Camera with fixed-focus lens is good only for a quick shot (50cm up) and landscape photos but in close-up or macro shot it is useless. People, especially the Nokians love to use the Nokia camera with autofocus because it is the best so think twice before you release it. And I believe this is one of the reasons (fixed-focus lens) why Apple and Samsung is on no.1 and no.2 spot respectively. NOKIA, please wake-up...I don't want to transfer to other brand.

                                        Maybe with WP7 phones but with Symbian I doubt it.
