Re: NOKIA is still strong
Strong is exaggeration but it isn't doing bad. I think in next two weeks all reports for whole 2010 will be in and it will be possible to compare with other companies.

Re: NOKIA is still strong
yeah, but Smartphone market share is seriously donw - down to 31% globally.
So while handset sales increased, marketshare decreased. As Elop himself put it - "In short the industry changed and Nokia needs to change fast" |

The N8 and E7 are nice, but in the marketing world we live in it's all about the numbers (RAM, processor, apps, screen size, etc..). If you don't play the game you better have something significantly different that everyone understands it's value. The N8 and E7 are good, just not ground breaking. |
Re: NOKIA is still strong
Nokia has become the Kia/Hyundai of cell phone manufacturers.
Excels at making cheap products, however you wouldn't want to buy anything sporty or 'fun' from them |
Re: NOKIA is still strong
Well nokia is one of the players that really can handle 3 OS with their huge volumes. I'm starting to believe that this might be the right way. Just not Android plz.

Nokia is simply too slow, maybe they are too large to react quck enough. The N8 came 6 months too late, the E7 is still not here and any MeeGo devices? where are they? But Nokia is keeping up, they are growing in the fast expanding smartphone market, albeit slower than Android devices. As long as they keep making phones like the N900 or N8, I really don't care how big they are, because no one else bother making phones like these phones. All the others are all the same boring "screens", except maybe Palm/HP. |

A quick google search told me that Nokia sold 4 million N8 units in two months after the release, which is an impressive number indeed (hats off to Nokia), but also that the iPhone 4 sold 3 units in the first month after the release. So, more than the iPhone 4 and the 3gs combined... I don't think so. But the numbers also prove that the N8 is doing good, so your point is still correct ;) |
Re: NOKIA is still strong
i just dont understand how a world leading mobile phone manufacturer, with way more resources ( man power, money ) and most of all, experience, is struggling to immediately come up with a better answer to IOS ever since the iphone came out. ( disputable, but sales do talk )
it just depresses me that they are wasting time and money. |
