Just found these pictures of Nokia phones with truly awesome design. I didn't even know many of the phones. Gotta say! Nokia was and always will be the most innovative company, be it design or technology.

Why did you even start making touchscreen phones, Nokia. Those were really cool phones back then.

I like that 6108, looks a bit 'star trek' in it's design.

I know right. And look at those features. Man! a stylus. And you can do hand-written text.

Let's see what Microsoft does with our beloved Devices and Services. Personally, I don't expect much. I believe Nokia's D&S went full ****** when Stephen Elop became the CEO. Probably because he was not Finnish. meh!

Jolla did kinda 'rip-off' for its UX icons from 7600 form-factor. I had that phone, BTW. The Nokia's (maybe world's, who knows) second 3G phone, for God's sake, just behind 6650.

Huh! well Nokia did fund Jolla, so maybe that is why there was no legal case. Or else these companies are always on the look out for pouncing others for violating there patents and licences. :P

That Nokia N93 was some awesome phone.

I preferred the Nokia 3315 over the 3310, it had Space Impact and Picture Editor !!


Also that lustful phone we called the Nokia 8800:
