i own an N8 and i installed a lot of apps.. and i still don’t experience the “low memory warning”..

while my gf owns an HTC Desire.. she always have troubles with the low memory warning..

the problem with nokia is that, when there are problems with the nokia phones, the owners post it immediately on forums. while android owners or iphone owners, don’t.. or if they do, their quite a few..

Stupid posers don’t like Symbian because it doesn’t have blonde hair and big boobs.

That is a very fair point. And one that I daresay I agree with wholeheartedly. Unless you show people how good something is outright you can’t really expect them to know or care for that matter.

That said, I’ve found a lot of the criticisms being levelled at them above and beyond what their faults have merited. People still lambast the Ovi store AND development for Symbian when their only experiences with it were well over a year ago. The Ovi store a year ago is so much worse than the current implementation whereas the other two stores have improved but not nearly in the same league of improvement the Ovi store has seen. (In terms of client development and improvement for example)

That said, there are still issues that were rectified majoritatively that we’ve yet to see the fruits of. It is something that takes time and patience, though hopefully not too much because I’m personally considering moving away from Nokia if I see nothing worthwhile by June of next year.

I do consider Apple Iphones and Google androids phones as plasticraps, no battery, stamps pics, blondes and fart apps for anything and nothing, closed and linked system for the fruit, colorful and excited for the gogole ones but nothing very useful for those who really need to work with their smartphones, to rely on them. Trying to compare the N8 hardware with the others is just like talking megahertz without even knowing what they do with it. Well, you’re nearly right on a point: Symbian is a proper working OS, not an extatic explosion of joyfull promises.

To each his own!
I went from nokia 5800 to galaxy s and now to C7! Android is all flashy yet when it comes to basic call and text I had to navigate my way so much it was crazy! Also call quality and signal strength is where nokia rules!i commute by train 45 miles to work and go through many tunnels, samsung struggled to get good signal for calls or web browsing yet both my nokias had great signal except when in tunnels!
hence I am back to nokia and it meets my needs well!
And nokia support there devices well whereas other brands not so much.
Also hardware numbers are just that! Bit like mega pixel of few years ago! C7 seems to do well with only 680mhz processor and when I played hd divx on nokia c7 it played smoothly yet galaxy s wasn’t! So its down to how well an OS utilises available hw.

Everyone should use the platform that match his needs. Shouting that Symbian is old and crappy is a perfect shout for thoose who like the incredible choice of farting apps you find in the other stores. I came back to the N8 from an Iphone 4 and I stopped reading Stefan Constantinescu’s posts to focus on my real needs: the N8 has never deceived me; great battery life, essential interface, reliability. It’s different. Meaning.. ” You laugh at me because i’m different and I laugh at you because you’re all the same”.
I dont care about the challenges, the market shares and the “youtube comments experts”, I just wanted a phone that work well, a great tool, sometihng different.

My N8 is not an “iphone to be” and I love it this way

The only thing bad about symbian devices is that they have always been run on less powerful as compared to the competitors, i’d love to see those ghz’s (=P) go up and still maintain a good battery and ofcourse a revamp of the UI which feels OLD OLD OLD really because it should change, and a change here would mean a very good thing because ppl like change
