Once had been a great fan of Nokia. But now Samsung changed every one's mind by introducing a storm of excellent smart phones in the market. Best displays, lighter weights, and huge capabilities make every one to be attracted to these phones. Nokia has no innovations, any new addition in phone is based upon some cosmetic changes and no real sense improvements. At least Nokia is never going to beat Samsung at all. Can't say such thing about Apple.
And another thing is that every Samsung phone has exactly the same quality because they are manufactured in Korea only. But in case of Nokia, one can't have same quality of phones because they have plants in various parts of the world, the least quality being of phones manufactured in China and India.

Ezequiel, 05 Nov 2011LOL to the ones who said that he/she wouldn't be surprised ... moreAre you mad?
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL In what standards Nokia better than Motorola or better than anything for that matter?
Nokia now is least in the list of Smartphones and i don't give a heck about what you think! The statistics said Nokia is a loser so Nokia is a loser or you want me to believe you (Nokia fanboy)?
So beat it kid or talk with logic! Nokia CAN NOT make a phone like Razor even in millions of years
For heaven sake Nokia didn't even make Dual cores or 1080P! Razor has 720P front Camera!

LOL to the ones who said that he/she wouldn't be surprised if Motorola will overtake/overpass Nokia... XD
Are you kidding.? even the days of the first RAZR's (wherein users are prone to Tetanus because of the fading keypad that eventually smells like a rust except for the V3X), Nokia is miles away from Motorola.
Look at Motorola's new smartphone and the Xoom 2, FAMILIAR.? YEAH! it's the Nokia X7's design... duh...
Even Sony Ericsson looks like it's ahead of Motorola... Not because they also join the Android bandwagon means that they'll also success... T.S.K. T.S.K.

Android is king in the mobile OS Arena, Apple iOS is great but advancements in the OS is much slower compared to Android OS... Look at the Samsung Galaxy S2 vs. the iPhone 4S in terms of what the OS's offer, Android is tops. Nokia is nowhere close 2 either of the 2 with their Windows Mobile OS. I still think their BEST solid phone was the N95 in terms of (hardware + software). Perhaps if Nokia could run Android OS on some of their powerful mobile devices, who knows perhaps that could keep them in this game...

Apple.makes great phones but it is no longer the leader in smartphone technology. Now it's just a brand name that people are buying. My first phone ever was a Nokia what a distant time it seems. Everybody I knew at the the time had a Nokia or Mototola. The times they are a changing In the last 4 Years I have gone through 5 phones 3 Htcs and 2 Samsungs. It seems that Samsung really has a grip on the smart phone market and will stay on top for a very long time. There is no limit to what Android can accomplish. i can't wait till next year for the quad core processors and 1080p HD Displays. "Long Live Technology"

I think it's not quite fair.
Because Apple only sells 1 model, & very seldom launches new model. And then the price is expensive.
Samsung's & other brands' smartphones varies from cheap ones to expensive ones. They have so many models.
I think it would be fair if the comparison is in the same price level. (e.g. iPhone 4 & 4S compared to Samsung GS II)
