Why do you like Nokia?
Well, the question might baffle some but it actually refers to Nokia as a whole and to their devices. Why do you like Nokia products and why do you like the company, to state the Q again. Also, I guess everyone has different likes on Nokia but it’s good to remember the things that made you liked it. For example, like your old Nokia phones that still in your cabinet and still running. And mostly likely the other things too.
Continue after the break.
So I will go first why I like Nokia products and Nokia itself.
1. First thing that I like about Nokia is they made sturdy and good looking phones. To further expand what this is about, here is the bullet form for that.
- These days, our current phones that we are using have become thinner and lighter but in expense of durability and quality for some. But not on Nokia devices for sure! Who thinks dropping a phone from a meter high for dozen times will make it still alive? Well, watch the Nokia N8 drop test here!
- I still loving Nokia until now because of their creativity when it comes to creating well-engineered devices with a touch of art. They are just the top when it comes to making the sexiest and hunkiest devices as well as revolutionary forms. Even up to day we still remember these awesome phones like Nokia 3210 with changeable casings and twisting Nokia 3250. There are lot of other things that left for you to remember though.

And with evolutions of devices made by Nokia, we have the latest Nokia N8 at five different colours with aluminium casing
2. The second thing to love and crave for Nokia is being superior to multimedia features for their devices. To prove that they are superior on this corner is you have to go back to the past and relive those devices that they have made.
- Superior in Imaging – No doubt Nokia is the best when it comes to making great camera phones. If you could remember the Nokia N93 with the optical zoom and the Nokia N82 who made many people gaga for its camera, and also the Nokia N86 who achieved some outstanding awards for its camera performance and offering. And last but not the least and the latest is the Nokia N8 who breaks some record due to its imaging prowess. And not to forget on how many billions of images were been shot using Nokia phones.
Nokia N93 with optical zoom for video and still - Superior in Music – I’m not sure on how many millions of people played their first MP3 songs using a Nokia device. But I’m pretty happy every time I remember my old Nokia 3230 playing mp3 songs back when I small. Or even the big bassy, trebly speaker of N73 music edition. It’s just so good to remember these moments and when we went digital breakthrough.
eXpressmusic series was born continuing the superiority in music – Nokia X6
3. Always connected is what Nokia wants for us. And that’s why they do their best in creating the best experience we have in communication. No drop calls, longer battery life, strong signals, and hold your phone in many ways you like.
4. They love the community and that’s why we love ’em too!
Nokia will always put the people on top of everything else. That’s why they are one of the most friendliest companies ’til now. They have their Ovi blog, Nokia blog and the WOMWorld people to help every user, blogger and fan.
5. Nokia tune and logo that symbolizes everything of being the number one mobile manufacturer.
I believe that Nokia will still continue their long and prosperous journey as long they keep innovating and connecting more lives. So I guess, that’s why I like Nokia…connecting people.
So, do you like Nokia, too?
Now it’s your turn to tell why do you like/love Nokia devices and as a company through commenting below.
For me personally, and from experience of working around the world with Nokia in my past career, I remain a Nokia enthusiast even to this day. There is no doubting that Nokia is currently still prolonging that something special, and groundbreaking many a Nokia user are waiting for, and since the N95 models, they really haven’t come out with anything yet to match the competition. This alone as seen many Nokia users switch to other brands, and some long term Nokia loyalists too.!
Its all very well having all the functionality one would ever wish for on a Nokia smartphone, but if the Operating System, the User Interface, and the User Experience is still laking as it is in Symbian^3, then Nokia really do need to step up their game dramatically.
I do like Nokia for their openness however, but having said that, being open is one thing, acting upon suggestions, ideas, and implementing what the overwhelming number of consumers are crying out for is another.
I’m hoping Nokia can not only catch up with the competition in the way of a fluid, smooth, fast OS, but actually leapfrog the competition while they are at it.
Eye candy not only looks nice, its an interaction which brings the user, and phone together, and units them, resulting in a user experience which is second to none.
Well said sir Micky.
And obviously we are both big fans of white Nokia N86 here.
I also *ditto your statement on openness. You’re right about it, openness means they will rely on something they don’t and it is both an advantage and disadvantage, as you said about “acting upon suggestions”.
I guess 2011 is just the right time for Nokia to make their big leap.

I will be writing a post on my blog to answer this question. I’ll post the link when i’ve done it.
Symbian is dead.

I love Nokia , the only problem is that they should concentrate on Ovi Contacts (Ovi CHAT ) that will lead them to success , for example : blackberry’s OS is ugly, disgusting and weird the only reason why people buy a BlackBerry is because they want to use BlackBerry Messenger THAT’S THE ONLY REASON and BlackBerry OS 6 is ugly too !
Nokia builds good hardware. Or at least they built the best hardware, while the competion was smaller than it is now. My last Nokia was an E90, bought back in the days when the N95, E90 and similar Nokia devices were the cream of the smartphone crop. From then until recently (N8, E7,C7) the hardware fell short or at least was neck and neck with the other horses in the race. From my E90 i went to a Samsung i8910. At the time, compared to the N97/N97mini/X6, etc it was just streets ahead. In my mind the i8910 is the spiritual successor to the N8.
My most recent smartphone choice has been the Desire HD. In part because the N8 screen is too small for me, but mainly due to Symbian. In my mind the Symbian OS has stalled or just reached the end of its evolution, in its current form. Its now outdated and has been surpassed by IOS and Android as an OS and interface. The 2 years of Symbian Foundation not doing a whole lot to redevelop it didn’t help. Symbian 3 is only a facelift on S60 at best.
More of concern for the future is the fact that developers are moving on to IOS and Android, leaving Symbian until it (hopefully) becomes viable again. An outdated OS with no app development can only continue to be left further and further behind.
Additionally the last 2 years have seen Nokia appear to lose focus on where they are going. The spinning off of SF and subsequent reabsorbtion, the comings and goings at the top level of leadership, and confusion of which current OS Nokia will be using (Maemo, Meego, S60, S3) has created an appearance that Nokia has lost track and become indecisive. Even if this only a perception presented by the press, its a dangerous perception as it only continues to hurt Nokia.
They’re a long long way from being dead. Even Rickey Cadden (and Rita) has regained an interest in Nokia thanks in part to devices such as the N8 and E7. The hardware is returning to Nokia’s good standards, but a major choice is facing Nokia over what to do re Symbian.

I love nokia because most of nokia devices have very good battery life,excellent form factor and above all they are made for really rough usage!! If i remember correctly my old nokia n85 had survived fall form 3rd story of building and ofcourse nokia phones are always great value for money ….
el nokia 1100 es uno de los mejores celulares, el n95 muy superior para su epoca exelente. en estos años solamente falta renovar S.O. y estamos de vuelta….
Nokia 5110, N70, N85, N82, HTC Hero (Android) and now back to the Nokia C7. Other OSes might be more shiny and posh but Symbian just integrates into my life more easily with it’s many well-implemented functions. I’ll probably a Symbian disciple for the rest of my years
Nokia has always been strong in the details in my view. More BT profiles than the competitors, TV out on many phones, DLNA (please bring this back to Symbian3), radio transmitters and the like. You get so many cool things for extremely competetive prices… try to beat that iPhone and Android.
I love nokia! Its me and my dads favourite phone brand, it’s sturdy and hardly ever has problems.
I can tell you why I don’t like Nokia
STILL NO ANNA FOR US COSTUMERS !
