Boycie Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 Well, there you go, they want to challenge the strangle hold in the mobile market held by Apple and Samsung. They see the once largest supplier of handsets as the best vehicle to get to their target. That is all.

Boycie Posted September 3, 2013 Author Posted September 3, 2013 They have produced a nice touch screen to rival the Samsung tab thing. My imaginary friend has one.
Day Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 That surface thing? Just an expensive dinner tray, I'll make do with me plate straight on me knee
Boycie Posted September 3, 2013 Author Posted September 3, 2013 That surface thing? Just an expensive dinner tray, I'll make do with me plate straight on me kneei dunno? It's a touch screen black phone that looks like the large Samsung tab thingy?

Cisse Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 People here are not happy with this deal. I for one have never liked Nokia phones. They did great rubber boots though a few decades ago.

Shuff264 Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 I dont agree with Daveo, Nokia are renowned for making some of the best hardware phones with the best cameras on the the market. The new 1020 is in the running for the best phone of the next generation, the only thing that ever let them down was that god awful Symbian OS now its been replaced with the very nice Windows Phone, there actually very good phones now.

Phones are 75% software though.... It's like saying we are one of the best footy clubs in the country because we get a lot of fans....

It has to be the right blend, its 50/50. Crap hardware means the software wont run, crap software is a waste of good hardware.

Maybe back in the day but now phones are that good it doesn't really matter... I used to be one of these that had a new "top" phone every 6 or so months but now I ain't going to bother. The next smartphone that's not Windows Phone which can last 48 hours with normal use will be getting my money. I'll even go back to Apple if they manage that!
Day Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 Tbh any phone that could last 48hrs with push email on, social media notifications on would have me. It's not that I'm away from a plug socket for 48hrs, I'm just a lazy ******.
Shuff264 Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 Im waiting for the details of the new Sony phone, my contrats up sometime next year but unless this breaks I'll just go onto a giff gaff contract or something.
davenportram Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 Thing is windows phone is okay but it hasn't got the app support, and operates differently from iOS I have a windows phone and while it isn't ***** i have gone back to my iPhone 3GS.
GboroRam Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 I hope Microsoft make a decent business oriented phone. Big gap in the market. Phones are all about facebook and twitter, one that has good features like domain membership, exchange support and high level encryption would get IT departments' attention. Bet tgey focus more on the xbox than the traditional business environment though.
