And Symbian was Dream for average user too i can Name lot of things symbian did and Android or ios cant do, symbian was proper phone os, specialise in day to day Activities.
Kai os sold over 100m phones there is still huge demand for low end OS even now, if symbian was here it could survive even today.

Symbian was a tech geeks dream, and a nightmare for the mainstream. It’s dead for a reason remember.
As soon as the public at large saw more user friendly options, it’s days were swiftly over.

Could just as easily (and with an equal lack of any logic) say Android doesn’t support 16K, and don’t tell me 8K is enough.
Would agree Android is a mature os at this point though, they both are. Each offering pros and cons when compared to the other.

you have to suffer, 24 Apr 2022prove if symbian and blackberry had a multitasking.Not just Multitasking, Symbian Had true Multitasking, you could open The whole Phone 50 to 100 apps and all of apps will run together, no resume or hibernation of apps, and it did that with just 64mb or 128mb ram.

you have to suffer, 24 Apr 2022prove if symbian and blackberry had a multitasking.Symbian had multitasking at least from v 8.1. Probably before that too but as N70 from 2005 was my first Symbian powered device, I haven't used earlier versions of Symbian.

Half of these were stolen from the devs working on nice tweaks for the jailbreak.
Good times.
iPhones were worth their money as kings of smartphones.

My iPad Mini 6 will close the terminal application if it's in the background for like 20 seconds. So I guess it's multitasking. If you're fast.

In TVs, only thing it does is to halve brightness and reduce contrast and uniformity for LCD TVs, as well as massively driving up the price. By the way, I have 4K Video disabled on my phone and use 1080p60fps because of storage and I didn’t notice a big difference between 1080p and 4K. Our household doesn’t even own a single 4K Display and we never complained.

Even now iOS doesn't have true multitasking. Doesn't have proper file manager. Doesn't have 8k video recording and don't tell me that 4k is enough. Doesn't support emulators. Many many many things. Android isn't toy anymore. It is much more advanced and mature OS.
