Has Nokia Failed to Catch Up with the Big Boys



Nokia handsets bring a bit of nostalgia. We all remember the very likeable mobile phones that this Finnish phone manufacturer has made popular back in the late 90s, the familiar interface, the stylish designs and even the interchangeable covers that we have come to love. Nokia has brought actual mobile phones to the world and although there is a good deal of people who have flirted with Siemens and Sony Ericson, they still go back to the beloved Nokia handsets. With a drop of the hat, we all went for the upgrade to the latest model, especially when the N series came out. 


This is not the case anymore though.

The age of smart phones has come a few years back but it looks like Nokia is failing to catch up even until today. Nokia is slowly stepping out of the limelight, it seems like, even though it keeps trying to come up with a device that could be a worth opponent to the giants of the smartphone industry like Samsung and Nokia.

Nokia’s Lumia line boasts of smartphones that are budget friendly. Created with Windows OS, Lumia models almost had it all at a good price. Unfortunately, none of those measure up to iPhones or Galaxies. At least, that’s what I believe and quite a big number of the people I know, as well as other reviews, news and pretty much quite a bit of statistics.

It is unfortunate that this has to happen to a great cellphone manufacturer, especially that their phones’ cameras are outstanding. Nokia has made its mark on this world and I’m still hoping that someday, it will still be able to create another innovation that could put them back to the spotlight. There’s even a rumor going around that Nokia will soon release an Android phone. Then again, there is another rumor about Microsoft planning to buy Nokia so what we need to do is wait and see what happens. You can get the latest mobile phone reviews on www.planetmobiles.eu

Till then, I’m sticking with my current smartphone.
