UX continuity were droped since Harmattan (N9/N950) !
 
I found that on N9/N950,

there is no more widgets on home screen anymore,

it is just a backslide comparing to N900.

Because N900 use resistance touch screen, it is more precise than capacitive touch screens.

That means MeeGo had to use a new UI/UE design.

And finally, Nokia use the Peter Skillman style (very like WebOS),

The new style is just a bit like iPhone.

And no widgets any more. Even Android has widgets.

So, when you move from N900 to N9/N950,

can you feel a bit uncomfortable ?

Please share your thoughts.

Re: No more widgets on MeeGo after N900 !
 
The continuity of N900 and Maemo 5 were droped!
That was a really stupid decision from Nokia.

The path should be branched for Harmattan/Meego 1.3 and Maemo 5; they should continue with Maemo 6 and a evolved device with HW-Kb.

I don't feel comfortable with N9 and Meego, WTH, worst with other brands and models.. all of them lacks something!

Nokia what r u doing to me!! :)
Please consider the 2nd paragraph.

That sucks.. Then again after using android for awhile I stopped using the widgets except task killer.

The only widgets I ever used was in Maemo. Androids were sh!!!t.. Osx widgets are cool.

I think that is because Nokia had no proper OS for capacitive touch screen smartphone before, so they hired Peter Skillman and use the WebOS style.

Then Symbian Belle had used some features in Maemo 5 (N900).

If they keep the maemo 5 style on the new model (N9), Nokia had to use a resistance touch screen in the new model to ensure the precise operations on the screen. And, that will be too out-of-date.

my thoughts:

are you serious?!?

I didn't know that N9 === MeeGo. I thought it was MeeGo-Harmattan + nokia's swipe UI on top of that...

The UI/UE continuity just been dropped on N9. That matters !

what continuity? "reference UI" doesn't ring any bells to you?
