| Alby_da_Wolf said Not wanting to directly develop Symbian anymore, but wanting to keep its user base, making it become a customised environment on a barebone Android or even more basic Linux system could have been a far better solution, avoiding WP bloating and hit on battery life that surely made existing user base unhappy, while Android could have provided all the developments and new features Nokia wasn't able or willing to add directly. |
Thats actually the almost reason why Nokia didn't go with Android.. Nokia wanted to add their stuff to android but Google wouldn't let them
Google was laying down the rules and Nokia was prevented to add stuff to android
Continueing with Symbian wasn't an option.. It was old and not third party friendly.. The developement of Meego really was behind.. They expected to release 3 meego phones till 2014.. 3! it was bug infested and just not ready..
People should read this article about what of a mess Elop found when he started at Nokia

About a Nokia ignoring the iPhone how a touchscreen wouldn't work cause they already tried it, not noticing that android was taking the low and mid range segment, slow development of Meego etc
