Nokia do own and collect on a vast number of patents.
Apple pay Nokia a vast amount each year for patented procedures IoS incorporates
Symbian, Nokia is essentially defunct, it cannot be "coded" for touch screen which anywhere on the display can be any input, its is a step by step / menu
Windows had better security than Android, its PC s/w was adaptable
Microsoft called it Windows Mobile.
Microsoft Windows 10 even before release had many bugs that were unfixable hence its demise however the Lumia 950 was supposed to run out of the box
Microsoft Windows 8 phones that were trialled upgraded to Microsoft Windows 10 between bricking and many features apps not working was a sign
Microsoft Windows 8 was 100% stable so features intended for the Lumia 950 could have
and should have included in Microsoft Windows 8 (Lumia 950 running WP8 not WP10. but Microsoft Windows announced the Microsoft Windows 10 was the future and App developers just abandoned Windows altogether no WP8
In short when you stop selling phones that run Microsoft Windows 10 out of the box because there are immediate software issues in EVERY phone sale after 2-3 years FIXES & PATCHES, UPDATE. it was abandoned. afaik the Lumia 950 has never been able to use many of the advertised features
So like Google and Android there once was a Microsoft ecostructure

This should have happened when they stopped bringing flagship phones and pricing their mid range phones like flagship.
Price is not everything but they had nothing to justify the prices. They even failed to name their phones properly. Nokia 8 was flagship 8.1 was midrange. 8.1 had OIS for main cam & the upgraded 8.3 lost it.
They said 8.1 is upgrade of Nokia 7+. But 8.1 lost telephoto camera and replaced it with useless depth sensor. Nokia 7.1 was not upgraded phone of Nokia 7plus. They gave stock android and delivered software updates later than custom android.
They didn't know what to do with name, Nokia brand name, spec. They failed in every aspect of business. They tried to bring back good old keyad phone design. Even that was not done properly. They could've developed better android OS for those devices instead. Or brought back Symbian OS for those devices. They tried to become secondary phone just for call but did not look into what call app can do nowadays apart from dialing numbers.
