Sucks to be Noki at the moment - GoFuckYourself.com

Ad-Min · 07-20-2012, 05:46 AM

It´s hard to watch how much the giant Nokia suffered from the smartphone boom.
I had several Nokia and Sony Ericsson phones over the years and they was great but i can´t imagine to buy a Nokia smart phone (at the moment).
It may sound stupid that i don´t even want to take look in the inner values of the phone but for me it is the design that ruins it.
The Microsoft homescreen looks cheap, i can´t imagine to get one with that homescreen.
And i believe that´s one of the big reasons why they suck at the moment, it´s the design!
What is your thought about Nokia at the moment?

Well they still ship tons of more units every year than any other company, but yea, they aren't what they used to be.

Ah that reminds me when I thought I was cool in 1998 for having an Ericsson flip phone

They're in better shape then RIM/Blackberry.

Nokia will probably be purchased by their new partner Microsoft in the next 18 months.

Sony Ericsson was best in era before smartphones, battery life, signal and software were 1st class! Their camera options on old k750i are great, some new phones can just lick their ass.
I have android phone now, i dont like it too much...

propped up yes

bought outright no

anti trust laws would probably stop it or stall it for at least 2 years.
