Video: The FIRST Nokia Windows Phone – The Nokia N9 you loved but with Mango and not MeeGo
OK we saw a post of some supposed Nokia Windows Phone as found by another blog. I thought it was a fake until I was given a 21 minute presentation starring this little beauty. Engadgetalready has a post of it.
We did not want to be the ones to upload and reveal the video but having said that once that is out, it’s the elephant in the room we can’t ignore. So is security lacking? Why on earth does elop ask for all cameras to be turned off if there’s a big massive one pointing at him and then suddenly to the main demo screen? Is this an intentional leak to move away attention from MeeGo already? It’s like it’s a whole joke the whole “it’s super confidential and we do not want to see it in the blogosphere” and it’s here in crystal quality.
AN vs EE that’s possibly the only difference :p
Someone has posted a snippet of it below.

My desire:
Windows Phone fail and Nokia fire Elop.
Then Nokia goes out of business, that doesn’t help them either, the market is expecting Nokia Windows Phone 7 devices.
How?? Do u think WP7 got more success than outdated symbian even failed to catch MS old OS. How can u build ecosystem by using skype when most of the operator hate skype as skype will consume their voice revenue. Note that, voice revenue is occupy 70% total income of network carrier. Please don’t biased by sucking Elop’s word
Dude, he wasn’t talking about Skype. He was taking about Nokia having informed the markets about its strategy for putting WP7 on their hardware. If you don’t believe Nokia, its board and its shareholders would be screwed in so many ways should the present strategy not be up the job, then please explain you p.o.w. in that regard.
U know that MS purchased skype by 8 billion and skype will be part of so called WP7 ecosystem. That’s why I mention skype in here. Elop’s ecosystem concept is really incomplete and has some serious fault by considering future technology such as LTE. Its difficult to build complete portfolio(from 100$ to 800$ phone or other device) by using resource hungry WP7.
It’s not resource hungry at all. It runs so buttery-smooth on even 2009ish hardware. Requires only 256 MB RAM. The new WP 7.5′s requirement is even lower than the original one.
And right up until that moment Nokia was still saying the exact opposite to the markets. Fool me once.
sounds like sour grapes
keep whining
MeeGo isn’t “Go”ing anywhere
This was just a glimpse of Meego – the first device (don´t counting the N900 with maemo5) and people actually like what they see.
Since it´s start WinPhone is trying to catch up featurewise and in terms of market share and success. Mango is coming around the corner in autumn – IF they get everything done till then.
So if you state that meego isn´t going anywhere I´ve to ask: “where has WinPhone7 gone so far?”. It´s even being outsold by WindowsMobile and in the US they sell WinPhone devices for 1 cent just to get them to the customers…
UI wise the N9 is a very attractive – much more attractive when directly compared to WinPhone with it´s two colour style (1 colour tiles on black background). During that video I didn´t see something groundbreaking new at WinPhone Mango as with the meego device.
We´ll see wheter the Meego N9 outsells the SeaRay device, both starting in autumn.
So i guess Elop got freaked out by all the love for MeeGo that he felt he had to do some Damage Control for Ballmer and show off WPMango on the N9
which i admit looks nice but showing me apps doesn’t mean anything… apps and their functionality can be on any OS
wth… why did my message end up being a reply… oO
I was just wondering how your “answer” is related to my post…

Nokia – MS is all about OS & services => not ecosystem.
All services integration of Nokia – MS OS partnership is a same thing if they choose google or any other OS.
Its not to make a new ecosystem.
New ecosystem was start to build feb 2010 when Nokia & Intel partnership begin to made MeeGo => OS for all. Freedom for all. Connecting all. and its need support.
So, talking about ecosystem in feb 2011 when Nokia – MS partnership is bullshit because Windows is nothing new.
MeeGo change ecosystem paradigm => connect to all.
MeeGo change the OS paradigm => open for all (not just google)
MeeGo is the whole idea.
People should stop talking about ecosystem.
+100
“Yes we can!”
It comes to mind that if this is an intentional and controlled leak, it could be strategy by Jerri DeVard & team (and Elop) in action. Though information around Nokia has been at times been quite confusing lately, it’s propably good after all as it creates interest in Nokia both in media and in peoples minds and talks.
What’s one thing I’ve learned today (finally
) is that I won’t trust finnish media anymore when it comes to news about Nokia. They have been quite negative for quite a while now and it seems they try to twist the facts and purposefully try to make everything Nokia sound negative most of the time (and as another finn said in another post, they don’t bother to check their sources and facts).
On Sea Ray and N9: I hope they both do fine. And I don’t think it’s a problem that they look almost identical in design – actually it’s quite nice – like twins separated at birth.
Though I’m still more willing to believe it was not an authorised leak. As Viipottaja for example pointed out, intentionallly leaking the whole video with all those “internal matters” is’nt that great pr after all. But who knows…
Great you people like the sound of finglish (finnish english accent)
That guys speech was a textbook example of it in all of its beauty.
One has to admit comparing the two identical phones with different UIs, the meego version looks so much better. Those tiles just irk me
+1
WinPhone UI looks old and ugly in comparison to the Meego UI.
Thank god both devices will be launched in autumn and one can compare the success of both devices regarding the consumers´demand.
Perhaps Intel´s little “legacy” N9 will ruin the start of WinPhone7…
Perhaps. But don’t bet the farm.
So N9 with MeeGo is my last phone from Nokia. It’s kind of sad but as a Linux user I’m never going to touch anything that has anything to do with Microsoft because their Linux support is shite.
Why can’t they produce one MeeGo device every year. Ecosystem doesn’t matter it’s all about web apps in the future…
Nagol: great point. Lots have written (even the financial times) that it makes no sense to release the N9. And asked why did nobody spoke about MeeGo in Singapore. Hey, Elop promised to deliver and so he does. That counts. He kept the schedule day by day. He promised dual sim for asia in summer – he delivered. He promised to lift symbian up a next level for future devices – he did. He promised the first MeeGo device – he delivered. And I am pretty shure that he will deliver a good WP-device in autumn. This purely is a video showing the world how Nokia is making the change. You have to keep in mind that during implementing major changes into a very huge company Nokia is able to release a product within a couple of month, nobody imagined would ever be released to the world.
I read in the news that the N9 will be poor of apps – so much bull shit. It won’t be the app-heaven but we have Qt and by the way, who needs the 100′ clone of any arbitrary app?
I shurely would have wanted Elop coming to stage in Singapore, presenting the N9 and afterwards doing the “one more thing…” we are used from the other Stephen to present the first WP. He did not. Maybe he is much to handsome for this. But I am pretty shure this moment will come.
i hate this CEO, n9 was supposed to have an intel atom and a 12mpx camera
Sadly the Unicorns got loose during the earthquakes, and the Fairies are still trying to catch them, so they had to scrap that plan.
No, We love N9 because how the OS itself matches with the hardware. This unholy match between N9 and WP7 OS is just bizarre and ugly to watch. I’ve never felt a Nokia phone to be like HTC n its like until this video. It felt like eh! that!
Stupid elop should go jump off the bridge. What a God Damn ignorant prick trying to sell this ugly tiled OS on Nokia hardware.
Hahhah Exactly how I feel.
When I saw this was confirmed as the Nokia WP7 phone I was like ‘WTF How can you put that Shitty OS on the N9!’
-Cos that’s basically all they did… I wouldn’t be surprised of most of Nokia’s revenue comes from the N9 this/next year.
despite nokia’s exclusive partnership with MS.. i still do not see how nokia is able to differentiate their products ecosystem wise since supposedly the focus of moving to MS is to have a competitive ecosystem. the only way i can think of is that nokia can win hardware wise. other than that, if it is a battle of ecosystem, with enough smarts, ppl will just start porting apps that could supposedly differentiate nokia & MS ecosystem from the rest. but im really hoping they succeed with WP7 though im really in love with n9…
cannot wait to find out how they are going to do it, can we..
if you think twice, it kind of make sense to use windows OS over meego. however, Nokia needs a better hardware than the N9 to conveince everyone that windows OS is a stronger OS than Meego and it is here to stay and thrive.
+1
yup, microsoft definitely has the resources necessary to help nokia software-wise.. the linux community working on meego is probably/definitely not as huge nor as efficient but c’mon, nokia, you had intel! or maybe the US is just biased towards companies on their own soil like google or apple, and now, MS..
They are biased, but I would not blame them for that. Also notices that intel is not a software company.
The real problem for nokia is that they do not have time anymore. 2 years ago, yes, they can wait for meego to grow, but not now. They need to throw out a punch with a already built and effectively supported system.
here’s a youtube link to the full thing – that other video isn’t working
brrrr
“I want more drool” LOL.. Eh to be honest, I’d rather pick the N9, MeeGo is so much better than WP7 in almost every aspect except for developer/app support at this point.
I’m happy Nokia are making a Windows 7 based phone. Its the right strategy to use to get back some lost market share.
However I don’t understand the reasoning behind suggesting the creation of only one consumer facing Meego device. Surely the correct form of action, would be to see how well the Meego device is received by the consumer and then make a decision on a strategy.
I don’t really care about an eco-system, I’m pretty sure there are many like minded consumers. Just give those of us who want to purchase this baby a chance.
Just watching this video, the quality of this video (notice no camera shake, panning when elop hands over) proves its nokias official video.
This is to divert attention from meego device!
I must admit im liking elop,he really is transforming nokia. 1st winpho device already in working proto form in 4months!
Possibly the fastest they’ve ever made a phone. And it will continue to attack the market like this.
elop hijo de perra
Some random but sensible comment from nokia conversations.
“Nokia lost 20 billion $ in market capitalization after Elop’s speech on Feb ’11.
Nokia lost 16 billion $ from reduced sales in smartphone after all operators and customers are not buying Symbian Nokia phones, because of Elop Feb’11 speech.
Elop promised Nokia a gain of 2 billions per year if Nokia cuts the development of Symbian and gets to be a Microsoft slave.
Compare +2 billions gain with MINUS -36 billions lost only this year because of Elop great plan that ruined the company.”
Source? Your mouth?
Do you really think market cap value is cash?
Elop start to fear the power of Meego on N9 so this is his action for that???
Another f***in effort by Trojan Elop to divert peoples mind from amazzzzzin Meego N9 to this Windows piece of sh**t. Bottom line is that, Nokia has future only with Meego and Symbian and windows phone will make u obscelete.
I won’t buy any phone from nokia as my money will spend by fxxking Elops to make some stupid decision and ruin my beloved nokia. As soon as he will be fired it will be better for nokia fan
