Re: Upcoming Nokia Flagship?
 

Future distributions were mentioned on their last Q4 2012 strategy briefing. Don't really remember that 1 MeeGo phone per year. Don't need much to realize there naturally wont be MeeGo phones ever from Nokia.

Nokia needs its own OS for things like the kinect concept and graphene phone that Nokia has been aiming for 5 years now. They just received 1.4 billion dollar grant to develop graphene. Or Nokia's glass project. Harmattan and what learned there will no doubt be used.

Don't expect to hear anything in that front anywhere soon or get excited, but it's simply something Nokia needs... for its future distruptions. Windows Phone and 808 PV being perfect example of the limitations Nokia can't do without its own OS, not to talk about Nokia glass or kinect.

Future disruptions won't have anything to do with Meego or Symbian.

Re: Upcoming Nokia Flagship?
 

I should make it clear: I WAS referring to the people who had done the major work in the Maemo/MeeGo devices, that's what I meant was the fantastic devices.

And about Jolla: What delays are you referring to? So far I think they have shown fantastic speed in their progress. Going from almost nothing (except from their professional expertise) and already have a working release of their SDK with so much already completed in the OS itself. I'd rather say its incredibly fast and impressive work from these guys.
Don't forget that Jolla was hardly even announced less than a year ago.

Regardless, Nokias insanity remains.

Re: Upcoming Nokia Flagship?
 

AFAIK, the OP was questioning about what the next Nokia Power Device, not about some cases that already buried two years ago.
Look forward guys...

We've already discussed the future relating to Nokia EOS, Catwalk, and Jolla SailfishOS, but what of the more distant future?

Nokia has recently admitted in its stock filings that there is a threat to Nokia's business that M$ may release a Surface phone or that M$ may reduce or eliminate its support of Windows Phone OS, as it has with its earlier attempts in mobile, like Kin and Windows Mobile.

So maybe next year with no Elop, we will start to see some innovation from Nokia that will be something other than Lumias and budget devices . . .

Re: Upcoming Nokia Flagship?
 

I do typically lean nokia for 3 reasons, camera, audio, build quality.

No other phone maker has yet to match the n8's camera on a phone
I've owned and had lots of friends with other phones and nokias both internal and external has some of the best sound.
I never have to put a case on a nokia phone

That being said I have owned htc and samsung phones, always letting me down in at least sound and camera, neither broke on me

I almost forgot multitasking, I know this is OS, but only symbian, maemo and meego properly multitask. My android phone multitasking is a joke in comparison.

Re: Upcoming Nokia Flagship?
 

Profit????? Nokias has only got down down doooown since they got in bed with MS.

Re: Upcoming Nokia Flagship?
 

I do not see anything that Nokia makes with MS as a Flagship but more so as a bottom dweller...

Beautiful Design + Multi Tasks = NOKIA RULES =)

Re: Upcoming Nokia Flagship?
 

I'm not here to defend and stand behind Nokia, but ALAS Elop is behind the steering wheel, the comissioner board and all the stakeholders still trust Nokia on him to make profit, someday.
You may assume that us; the customers is also a part of the stakeholders, right, but no one in this world can satisify every single man's dreams on this planet.

Believe me, WP8 UI is nothing compare to Harmattan UI or even the secretly develop jawbreaking UI on "Nokia Air". Nokia is taking its risk to pick WP, and i know it's a heartbreaker to all Nokia lovers, but we all have choices, take it or leave it.
