You can change the ui on symbian, change transition effects and you dont like one just apply another. For your kind information you can make the ui of symbian even better than IOS or Bada.. So your comment is just a crap..

        Niraj, 04 Jul 2010Its your own opinion.. If Bada support these type of themes... moreSee there you go again, you don't even know what you're talking about. The Wave, does support themes. And just like I said, the look of the UI is already gorgeous enough that you won't bother trying to change it.

        Also you're right it is my own opinion. But then again companies like Apple and HTC also seem to share the same sentiment that there's no need to place importance on themes very much as their UIs look pretty enough.

        Ok what else?

            [deleted post]You are first person who says this.. A automobile site gives it the best mobile gps navigation award. Just search google. Any way it is far better than Map on Wave, it used old map while Ovi uses new. Read the review

                Niraj, 04 Jul 2010No, I want to tell you that if you want to taste different ... moreNo that would only mean, a Symbian user isn't satisfied with the default themes, that's why they go and look for better ones.

                If the phone I'm gonna be buying has such a dull looking theme slapped on it, that I have to bother looking for new ones, then I'm not gonna purchase one.

                There's a reason why Symbian is one of the only remaining OS to cling on to changing themes, it's because they can't make a great looking UI.

                Wave owners can attest that the TouchWiz is one gorgeous eye candy.

                Try again.

Every time you get a fresh new user interface. So its clearly a plus point for symbian.

                                Niraj, 04 Jul 2010Wrong word. It is customizing not mask.So what you're trying to say is, Symbian 3's default interface is so ugly that you need to go and download different themes to MASK that UI and make it look like a UI of a different phone?

                                Buddy I have to tell you, if you were a salesman you won't convince a lot of people to buy the N8 with such weak logic.

                                    Firstly , i am not against any phone company but i am definitely against filthy attitudes !!

                                    Just tell me do you have N 8 in your hand ?? It's not even released !!!

                                    Do you know anything in detail about symbian^3 ???

                                    My only authentic argument still holds valid that "at present" WAVE IS THE BEST !!!

                                    Symbian platform was great till WAVE ARRIVED !!! LOL
