AnonD-160955, 02 Jul 2013Wooow, more than 600 comments. What a nice discussion!!! ... moreWP8 is overtaking BB, and reaching top 3 status.

Nokia has beaten all other WP8 makers, Samsung included.

Nokia will be fine going forward without android.. but if they really go android.. they are gonna get burnt.

      Wooow, more than 600 comments. What a nice discussion!!!

      I've arrived in final thought: Microsoft should responsible for Nokia's bankrupcy in the near future. Nokia has failed in smartphone industry because of WP OS. Nokia is really in trouble now, Blackberry as well.

      Leave, just leave Microsoft if you wish you could compete with Samsung, Sony, HTC, and even Huawey. The old fashioned WP OS only make you suffer even more.

      Nokia can do their best, but not with Microsoft and its suck WP OS.

      Lol. Hahaha...

        paco2x, 02 Jul 2013I came to the conclusion that regular Android users are not... moreAdding Android won't hurt, as long as they don't eliminate WP.

              I came to the conclusion that regular Android users are not OEM loyal, they will buy anything regardless manufacturer mostly because price, like someone said it, in the past, HTC was the top dog on Android phones before Samsung start flooding the market with cheap Android units, so Nokia can't and it won't play on that level, people don't get it... Most of them only will buy Android because of the price not because of the quality of the device.
              Nokia can't afford to be in the same position like HTC is right now.

                No, Nokia should not look forward to Android,
                then what samsung, sony and oppo will do :D

                Nokia should go with Windows and can design new OS like jollo jollo.

                Which makes Nokia its own level.

                  Samsung,htc,lg all of brand accept android ant both are also working with Microsoft windows OS, so nokia is behind the all brands because of only windows 8 os can not put nokia at the top brands.only android can change the position of Nokia.

                    As you people can see it doesn't matter that the Lumia 920 is best on market but it runs WP when nobody likes it so no one buys it!

                      I had lots of phones Nokia till 2010, when they quit Symbian. Elop says that android lags but he doesn't get that people like android. I wouldn't buy WP even though it doesn't lag. Now I'm with HTC, but WHO knows, even if Nokia came to Android no one would buy it, like they don't buy HTC but buy Samsung junk phones.

                          I'd always owned Nokia's ...until smart phones came along. They were simply the best.
                          I've owned an Android because a true smartphone was a huge step up simply because of the software.
                          I don't want an iPhone, or windows.
                          I'd buy a Nokia in a second if it was Android.

                            Yes, that opinion came from an analyst, those are well know in the gaming sector, almost every time they fail in their predictions so no one pays attention to them. They always playing with speculation and stock markets in order to benefit a group maybe the competition or stock buyers.
                            So those analyst "expertise" are equal what cows drops in their rear.

                                  almost 600 comms, and 75-93% said in desperately
                                  ”come on Nokia, we want u to use android, we want ur pureview, ur carlzeiss, ur here and citylens, ur quality hardware in android, in another brand we just 'need' the os, not the cheap plastic and crappy built...so manipulates in numbers or procs and rams”

                                  LOLs,
                                  okay then, its free forum to say anything u like, but...guys, please, no need to say in desperately and crying to nokia (via gsmarena) to use android...

                                  this just came from 'analyst', not from the employee of Nokia, not a developer or what, only saw in numbers of sales

                                    I don't like Android, if there'll be 2 Operating systems I'd choose iOS. But wait! we have Ubantu, Sailfish and Firefox, I still have a hope!!
