MWC 2009: Nokia overview

16 February 2009
Market leaders Nokia are usually among the key news makers at the Mobile World Congress. Unfortunately this year, the manufacturer failed to reveal an all-in-one flagship as an answer to the pressure of other manufacturers...

    Nokia Screwed logic will confuse customer!!!!

    Hi all,
    I've seen the Nokia E75 & E55 specs at Nokia developer forum. The Nokia E55 will use the NEW 600MHz CPU... Yipiiieeee.... BUT the Flagship nokia E75 will use the old 369MHz CPU.

    I really confused by nokia Logic. User who were willing to spent more money will buy the OLD & SLOW CPU, but user who spent less money got the FAST & BRAND NEW CPU.

    Am I the only one that feel this is awkward?
    Please Nokia.... PLEASE.... Don't use 369MHz CPU on your E75.

        hahaha before comment please read the article/news

        It's the first and only cameraphone to offer variable aperture values and a 28mm wide angle lens.

        The first benefit of the variable aperture (going through F2.4/F3.2/F4.8) is that at F2.4 the camera has more light to work with as compared to the standard F2.8 value of all cameraphones we've seen. The second benefit is that when there's enough light and the aperture closes a bit (F3.2/F4.8) the resulting images are usually sharper.

                This is the only 8mp cameraphone with a focus on imaging, music and gaming. GSMArena and Mobile-review have already confirmed that n86 is quite powerful at photography and that it takes pretty good pictures.
                Plus its price tag is rather good. Most 8mp cameraphones are still selling at over 400 or 500 euros, yet n86 will sell at 375 euros in around 2-3 months. This is a high end phone with a midrange price tag. And for those complaining about screen size and touchscreen, does it make sense to ditch the numeric/music/gaming keypad and fm transmitter and pay 100 extra euros just for that? Use your head!!
                Plus none of the other manufacturers can match up to the services that nokia provide.
                Its that simple. Get the n86. I plan to.

                      noledge, 17 Feb 2009heres a news flash for you: they've already lost marketshare.Admittedly they lost market share form 40% to 37% but don't delude yourself that it was caused by competitors's high end phones. Market share wars are not won with high end phones coz only a few can afford them. Imagine this; if it weren't of contracts that come with free handsets, how many people could afford to purchase a phone for £500 plus???. You will unsurprisingly find that not many would afford it. Coupled with the worldwide recession it doesn't make sense to focus on high end phones coz there won't be sufficient buyers to warrant releasing them in the first place. The samsung Innov 8's sales are actually poor or not to their expectations according to mobile-review.com.

                            @To all guys and gals
                            What make u think that nokia is fool and they r gonna loose market share in 2009. Let me tell u one thing technology is different from consumer satisfaction. Satisfaction comes by considering different parameter and one most important parameter is price. What is the point of releasing 12MP phone which nobody can afford. Nokia is moving one step further in their aim to conquer world. All other manufacturers are focusing on MP, Symbian, Screen race but nokia are focusing on services and competitive price. If u compare any nokia phone with other manufacturers phone then u notice that others price are about 20-50% higher than nokia phone for same features. So in the end consumer only focus on price they can compromise some features for better price. So i m forecasting that this dammn phone will be a hit. Keep thinking about bringing nokia down but u never know their strategy.

                            Only a fool can think that world's largest mobile vendor is out of mind

                              Here we go again with Nokia's cannabalising of old designs and its cheap marketing gimmick done on the N95.

                              Nokia -> no innovation, you can clearly see that the 'N86' is only an N85 with an 8MP camera (look on the white model 'N85 8MP')and now Nokia's trying to pass this off as a new product. This is absolutely ridiculous!!

                                  Why, why, why do you people argue about cell phones? The Samsung Omnia costs more than the tv in my living room, more than a mortgage--who can afford it? Nokia phones are for regular people, not living high on the hog! The 5800 was reasonably priced and it looks like these are going to be too--thanks Nokia--I appreciate you!!!!

                                    Oh! WOW!!!!!

                                    What a joke, and Nokia wonders why it's profits are down and continue to fall, as does it's market share.

                                    The best they could do for MWC 2009 is stick a better camera on an existing handset - yawn!

                                    I have waited so long for Nokia to get it right, and they just keep disappointing! I've been waiting a year on a new Nokia to release a top handset and no joy. I've been happy, and loyal, with Nokia since my 3310, 7250, 6310, 6680, N73 and N95 - but nothing new in ages and nothing new in the pipeline! Given Nokia's track record the N97 will probably just make Xmas this year (remember the delays on the N96 and 5800!).

                                    Too little, too late - especially with the HD touchscreens coming out fitted with 8MP and full media.

                                    Bye Bye Nokia, it's been a long and loving relationship, but you just don't try anymore, so it's just not working out and I'm going to have to leave you for another..........brighter, more youthful model!!!!!

                                      HAHA, 8mp and a s&&&& flash. Not even a Xenon, this will take it to about comparable to Samsung and SE 3.2mp with a Xenon.

                                      Market lossing Nokia.
