Can anyone actually name one Nokia phone since N95 that was given bad reviews (proto) before release but was awesome once released? The only decent phone released since N95 is the N900 but it only caters to developers and uber geeks

The problem is that Nokia still thinks its 2005 and there are no comparable competitors.

Bingo. I feel as if Nokia is stuck in a time before competition and where smartphone just meant "charge a lot" and support very little.

Strange, I thought the Nokia E71 and the 5800XM were sold by the millions worldwide, and were snatched off the shelfs as if they were hot cakes...

But maybe me and you don't live on the same planet?

btw, the N95 was released at the end of 2006.

What, the E71, E72, E63 et.c. don't count as good devices? The E61i was pretty damn good, too. My half-alive E71 here feels dejected now
The N900 and N95 are the only N series I have owned, so I don't know how the rest are.

I have the E71, its an awesome phone for its purpose, 5800 is just a cheap touchscreen phone on contract so it sold very well. Neither of these phones were bashed as prototypes..

Gizmodo did not tear apart the iPhone... They did Marketing for Apple
Eldar clearly has ties to Samsung. The past 12 months there were mostly positive claims about Samsung but negative claims towards Nokia.

For its price (completely different price league as the fruit phone) the N97 mini (not the N97) is a good phone for many use cases and I am loving my N900 -

e72 is a nice phone. Maps, radio, google & yahoo mail apps all work without any hassle. Battery life is pretty good too. Pain to find the thing you want to fiddle with in the sub-menus though.

Mish.

I had the N95,N95 8gb, N96, N86, N97, 5530 and just really disliked the N96 and N97. The rest was quite good.

Am I the only one that thinks they (put here, Apple, Nokia, whatever) should embed secret watermarking on their prototypes desktops? This guys all post screenshots... and.. uh.. as far as I know some neat watermarking could easily go through that. Some good watermarking could go even through actual pictures of the phone with its screen turned on.

(Or maybe I should apply a patent for this?)
