Nokia too 1 year to come up with its first Windows Phone. In the mean time, iOS and Android ate up all Symbian market share. Further, because Windows Phone is not as good as iOS and Android, Nokia cannot even regain its Symbian market share!

All this is due to ( illegal / bribed / intentional ) mis-management, clearly. Otherwise, nobody will kill a well selling Symbian phones and produce bad Windows Phone phones that too after one year. A clear case of bribing.

- No-Symbian policy ( this killed Nokia partially )

- Only-WP policy ( this will kill Nokia completely in next 1-2 years )

In an attempt to boost Microsoft Windows Phone through Nokia, Stephen Elop will kill Nokia in above 2 steps. And, needless to say, he would have got huge amount from MS already and will return to Microsoft once Nokia is no more

Think. Why are Nokia investors and directors sleeping ? Why can’t Nokia use Android when customers are asking heavily ? If Nokia comes back with Android, it will be at-least saved though it cannot become number one manufacture quickly.

1. Killing a very well selling Symbian OS. Last year Symbian sold 18 million, and because now Stepen Elop announced its end (killing it), its selling at hardly 1 million. Killing Symbian reduced one competetor to Windows Phone, but in fact iPhone and Android are the real gainers and not the WP. Poort MS and poort Nokia. This clearly shows how bad WP OS is.

2. Making Nokia to produce only WP phones even though Nokia knows WP has been proven to be a dead platform. WP is in the market for many years and few years back it had 40% market share. Once iPhone and Android arrived, its market share went to below 2% because WP 7 is not as good as iOS and Android.

There is still time for Nokia to revive if it cancels the partnership and put Android on its Lumia phones. Nokia investors have to wake-up and do this.

Nokia can continue manufacturing WP phones, but not only WP phones. It will be completed killed in next 1-2 years if it continues only-WP policy. And, if it puts free Android on its Lumia phones, they will sell hot. But, this is not possible as long as that Stephen Elop is the Nokia CEO. At-least Finnish Govt should wake up and save Nokia.

In contrast, Apple’s iPhone 4S was a surprise hit, given that it was a mere refresh. I think you’re right in that Windows Phone has been unfairly written off. There is still a lot of smartphone market to fight for and I feel Windows Phone is a good OS. I’ve put my money where my mouth is as well!

I find this
statement strange. Why? Because there were many reports that stated the Lumia’s
would have sold less than five hundred thousand. Yes less than 500K. Yet, once
the Lumia’s sold more than a million or so, then somehow that became
disappointing. If the so called analyst and techies predicted less than 500
units would be sold and there were more than a million sold would that not be
considered a success? That’s more than a 100% than what was predicted. But no.
Because it’s MS and Nokia then there must be a negative spin on it to suit the
fancy of those who were completely wrong. Of course there can’t be any
correction, because that wouldn’t fit the narrative trying to be placed on MS
and Nokia.

“…And
analysts are not sure how well the new Lumia 900 will do this year.

Estimates by some range from a low of 140,000 to a high of 680,000 units sold a quarter in the US…”

Here we go
again. If the Lumia 900 sells a million units by any measure that would be a
success based on the predictions. But somehow I believe those writing these types
of articles would anticipate most people would have forgotten the early prognostications
and start with … The Lumia 900 sold a million units but that was a
disappointing result.
