A post after my own heart
i don’t get the stormtrooper nick name

White.
ohh.. I see
Wouldn’t that make the black iPhone 5 darth vader ?
Hmmm this post just made me think. Stormtrooper white, Darth Vader… selop = DV, sballmer = The Emperor, a.k.a., Palpatine, etc.,
This is just another copy-cut from Nokia N9, this time with white copy-cut. When will be white version of Nokia N9 with screen dimmensions of L900? Can I flesh this L900 with MeeGo? Where from can I obtain neded files? And instructions?
*Yawn*
Give it a rest, eh?
But it is copy. Or you think/know otherwise?
People are really upset when they see that they only promote WP, and for N9 they even shut down bugtracker. :/
Boring….
Who cares if its copy or not. It looks nice and its Nokia product so enjoy the best looking phone out there.
No it is not a N9 copy, it is a classic Nokia design taken forward – like any Nokia design they create and then use in the various products they make. N9 was just an evolution of the N8/E7 type of rounded design once Nokia got the polycarbonate unibody process and rounded glass in place. For example the rounded glass is taken forward also in the 808, as is polycarbonate, although in a different design.
Pick almost any design in Nokia history and you will find predecessors and successors for that design. It is only now that people are hating on Lumia that this is somehow a problem. It is a Nokia design and Nokia has always used and reused and refined their designs across the portfolio. As they should, they are striving for brand familiarity of course. Like most cars from one maker look similar.
There’s no denying elements of N9′s physical design were tied in with it’s whole UX evolution.
So, it’s not strictly correct to say it’s a direct evolution from N8 etc.
But I agree it’s silly for them NOT to take elements of N9′s physical design & re-use it.
James: But is that really so? I know we always assumed that, but is it really? The N950 does not have a curving screen, for example. On the other hand, the 808 does have.
In any case, the Lumia 900 does not have a curving screen.
Of course, they didn’t need to take every cue from the N9′s design.
And as we’ve discussed, it’s trickier to do curved w/o making it more susceptible to wear/tear.
And harder to find suitable after-market add-ons like screen protectors/cases etc.
Agree on that.
Janne plz, we’ve had plenty of info. in the past yr, I’m not going to dig it all up.
Nor should I have to…..
You’re in absolute denial if you think otherwise….
They’ve even made it clear themselves several times…
The above reply was messed up. Here it is again:
James: I know they made the case, I do. I’m not disputing it had at least some effect, perhaps THE effect, I’m just wondering how much really. Because clearly they were going into curving screens anyway, as evidenced by the 808. Did the curving screen idea come first in some HW design department or did the SW swipe idea come first and then the need for curvature? How much of it was influenced by the design of the hardware and how much by the actual device? How much was it to get the pillow-shape on both sides? How much of it was about the swipe UI and how much about getting the general user-experience of a curved screen right? Because clearly the N950 did not have a curved screen, so it was never that the swipe UI would dictate the need. Nor does the 808 have swipe, yet it does have a curved screen? Did Peter Skillman have something to do with this? Any insight is welcome from anyone.
I’m just pondering out loud. No need to make it any more than it is. You seem mightily defensive these days. I’m just pondering these things, I’m not debating or attacking your point of view. These are curious details, I’m interested in them and thus just pondering out loud. Maybe some insider can at some point provide us with some juicy backroom shenanigans.
Why do you keep just making it about the curved screen?
There’s more to it’s design/aesthetic than that, we know that.
I thought you meant the curved screen was the hardware element that went hand in hand with the swipe UI? Hence unique to N9? That is why I was trying to explain my thinking on the matter.
We are clearly not understanding each other. I am not trying to wind you up or attack your position in any way. Just pondering stuff.
There’s nothing to ponder Janne & I’m not sure how you wouldn’t know that.
Anyone that followed events closely last year should know that…
There was tonnes of info. which supports the notion that the design inspired the UX & vice-versa.
That info. included Nokia emphatically reinforcing it themselves.
No “defensiveness” as you characterise it….
Seeing someone seemingly tweak history or selectively remember what did/didn’t happen, is just not very palatable.
They only promote WP? You only see WP posts here huh?
Every post on Twitter from NOKIA is about WP.
Most post here are also about WP.
That’s why i will unfolow NOKIA.
Every user who write something about WP is retweeted, but when N9 won design first Prize they even did not mention it…
Even bug-tracker is down, only one or two man are working on Harrmatan.
You don’t have to be Einstein to see what’s going on here.
I don’t have anything about Nokia to release WP, but i have mind if that is the only OS which i can get from them.
I see blogers like voice of the masses, and they should criticize bad and stupid decisions.
Can you tell me that dropping down Meego and N9 after release is smart decision.
Also i have feeling that every blogger is payed from MS.
If they just put better hardware and call it N9i they would sell it again and again. People really like it.
I am no fanatic, i use Windows every day and much more technologies from MS. I’m no happy about it, but they are here and we must live with it. I’m happy i just have choice, and if they are asked they would take that choice from me. And i wish to avoid that. Also i wish to get next smartphone from NOKIA without WP.
Sorry for spell mistakes, the day was really hard. :/
“Most post here are also about WP.”
Not true.
We post news to reflect what we’re being tipped. We always try to provide even coverage. We post everything we can about the N9. The 808 is frequently mentioned. We talk about upcoming S40 handsets too. If you think we don’t then I would say that would be an unfair assessment. If anything, it’s the WP related stories that I’m inclined to write about less.
At least half of the stories aren’t Lumia related. That means most posts are NOT WP. The reason we talk about Lumia because that’s Nokia’s main focus, but we also talk about everything else here when we can. Go ahead, feel free to count the stories.
OK, you are right now, there is alot of news for 808. But what after that?
And do you really think that they can do something with Meltemi in low end market?
They can’t compete with Android, Droids are cheap and there is so many of them.
Oh man why every time on this blog must be war?
And btw you did not say anything on the rest of my comment.
What do you want me to say about the rest of your other comment? You want me to justify myself all over again that I’m not paid by MS? You want me to talk about why Nokia is moving on to WP and not Symbian and MeeGo all over again? I think I’m tired of that discussion because it has been talked about to death. I am trying to look forward.
It will be extremely tough to compete with Android and iOS and everything else, but it will not be impossible. Everyday it gets harder but there is still fight left in Nokia. They show they’ve still got prowess in design and innovation. They got people excited with N9, Lumia and PureView. You can see the praise for PureView and dreams of bloggers for that to appear on Lumia and other handsets too. It could be a hit at the high end if Nokia can deliver there.
I don’t know the precise details about Meltemi. We’re still waiting on the refresh of S40.
Why must there be war? Because people like Annethe enjoy trolling on the blogs, creating various usernames to disguise themselves as different people and insert antagonistic comments. I don’t remove them as I have a policy not to remove spam. For nearly all of my readers, they are able to moderate themselves and each other, Annethe or new name now ‘Mike’ seems incapable of this. BTW, to reiterate for the millionth time, I am not against opposing or negative opinions – I would just prefer it if people stayed on topic and tried not to be antagonistic and perhaps stopped rehashing the same conversation in EVER DAMN POST.
Because it’s a dead product line. Look, I bear the N9 no ill will, but that branch – at least in its current form – is dead. Going on about it in every WP topic is tedious and pointless.
Annethe, how about trying to keep the same name instead of trying to continually pose as different people?
Anetthe uses multiple names to make it look like there are more people interested in the N9 than there are. From his posts it seems he’s invested time in developing apps for the N9, only to see the platform mothballed.
Now that sucks, but any sympathy I have for him/her quickly evaporated under his deluge of aliases.
You kidding me, from his/her posts it’s pretty clear he/she is NOT a dev.
Most of them are utterly clueless….
He/she is mostly a embarrassment to those that would’ve liked more of role for the platform.
read.
To stay on the topic, the black color is more beautiful, elegant.
And you are right, here is missing N9 and 808.
