Bound to happen

Nokia : Accept change and move on

Re: Android beat Symbian

Hold your horses
it hasn't happened yet
but it seems to be inevitable
not so fast conclusion guys

Re: Android beat Symbian

told it before, telling it again. till some good Android handsets are offered below 8k, India will be home to Symbian mainly. cause Nokia 5230 is much better than a Huawei IDEOS which have a very bad battery life & Micromax andro, which even performing good, will loose to Nokia cause of the trust in the latter being more famous.

Symbian has ugly and poor UI and it is now a dying brand,,

only the techie & the geeks care about usability. the average Indian (elder ones & girls. err, Nokia fans to be precise) just want a nokia how horrible is the keypad, screen or if its buggy like hell.

there will be many Androids in that section but i fear all will look like a toy phone. if looks fail to attract the crowd (looks matter more), Android alone won't be of much use.

well now if I go for android I will go for samsung galaxy series.. I bought 5235 few months ago@ Rs 8700 .. now I will have to wait a little for my next buy .. but for now If I look ahead I guess I will go samsung galaxy series.. but this is tech world and u never know what will be out then ..

Not worth buyin a Andro 1.6 phone now.

Optimus 1 is better than Galaxy 3 though.

not worth but those who don't have 12k to spend on a mobile & want to make their life a bit better, they'll go for the sub10k mobiles only.

better comes at a price but worth the 500 bucks.

below 12 k the default choice is mostly Nokia

some may live with Galaxy Mini. if so than the Nokia's part got cut to just 8k (or below).

Three mobile operating systems like Symbian, Android and iOS you start noticing similarities and differences that mark your behavior with each of them. Sometimes, it’s the obvious things, like enjoying the music experience on iOS more.iPod Touch has over 250 apps installed, while Nokia N8 has about 30 and Samsung Galaxy around 40. I clearly have chosen the all-in option when it comes to iOS, but the restrained option for Symbian & Android. iOS beat both operating systems android and symbian.
