Worst UI of all mobile manufacturer? Please be a little bit more informative. What did you like? Nothing? What did you dislike? Everything? Have you tried out all UIs of all manufacturers? Give examples of what sucked..
Yeah it's just that there's not that much to use in iPhone when compared with N95.
So what firmware version was it running on? N95 has never crashed on me and I've had mine since April or something.
Actually Nokia's market share is increasing all the time..
Not. You know N95 has sold more than iPhone and sure it was sold all around the world instead of USA alone but still.. especially when you consider that it's more expensive than the iPhone and just one out of 100s of phones in Nokia's portfolio.
But yeah, dream on fanboy. I'm guessing you've never even touched N95..
You bore me. I make games for mobile phones for a living, here at the office we have somewhere between 50-100 mobile phones, all thrown together in boxes. Although we write games for Java, which theoretically should mean that one jar should work on all handsets the reality is that differences in performance and screen resolution and most of all buggy Java implementations force us to test on each and every device.
I have tried more mobile phones that you could ever dream of, that is if the dream was not more of a nightmare. Who makes the best handsets? SONY-Ericsson hands down, among the normal handset manufacturers (anyone not Apple) they do everything right. Who has the worst UI and platform, well the poo award will have to go to Nokia with the their S60 platform. Ask anyone at the office, they will tell you the same and throw in LG and Samsung for buggy software.
I am not going to give you a point for point list of bad things with the Nokia S60 UI. Why? Because if you have truly had an iPhone and a N95 in your hand and used them each for 10 minutes and still think the N95 is da shizzle then you are beyond help. You are one of those techgeeks that have a certain fetish for high technology that you have long lost all touch with the reality that ordinary consumers are faced with when they struggle with bad design in electronics.
Like the people who love Linux or work at Microsoft you are impervious to bad design, congratulations. I however put design above anything else, everything from the cheap flimsy plastic feel of the N95 to the horribly bad menu, performance and UI of the the device irks me.
I don't give a flying monkey fart how many handsets Nokia has sold, if volume alone was the merit by which we measured quality then by god, Microsoft would surely be the pantheon of all things great. We all know how false that statement is, nuff said.
