u can't be serious. belle and android is lyke child immitating d father. belle cant stand with android. dey only imitate some operations lyke game. but a real droid user will tell you why. I use galaxy s 2. give d phone hand it will cook for u. it is not just the applications. the phon is just intelligent. ill give u an example. my cameral can be used as scanner.( camscaner feature called acr) can be used to measure distance, can use face dectect to unlock phone. infact bele is just fancy and junky that y nokia will put camera of 12mp wit poor focus and resolution why galaxy 5mp looks lyk 20mp bcoz hd. oboy do ur homework properly before u concluded

The problem with most of you android fanboys is that when you've got nothing else to say, you start saying things like android is better cos symbian sucks, android is better cos its a father to symbian e.t.c which to me are all pointless.


From your post, I was only able to get two things:

1. For your intelligent phone with the apps you mentioned. Well.... lets see
face recognition lock- face lock on symbian
cam scanner- countless number available on symbian
distance stuff- I've installed an app that does that before from Ovi store. Now I've decided to stop installing useless things like the above on my phone.

Its funny how u people scream 450,000 apps and yet you find it very difficult to name just useful apps you have thats not available on symbian.
Mind you I've been asking this question for so long.

2. Its absolutely senseless to compare the camera of galaxy s2 to n8. Next time you're confused try and use Google. There are multiple reviews online comparing the camera of n8 with that of iPhones, HTCs and galaxies and N8 always comes out top. In my opinion, thats about the only superb feature left on that phone.

Producing awesome cameras on phones is an area where Nokia have always excelled.
Next time tell me S2 has a better camera than 808 pureview.

sorry for u vlingo is also in ios and android and windows belle is just fany app but android is apps and features. were are our belle tablets computers gagdets and hadwares at . non becoz dey cant. android haz hardware pads keyboards external cams etc but belle my frend only sows u som fancy andriod copied operations forgetforgetting the main features. belle can handle pes well but wont handle fifa. if it does it cant use external controls to play. have u seen sony tablets, its android. belle is just for small devices and plays only small games like pes12. the smallest hd game in my phone 160mb. my fifa is 1.6gb nova3 is 2gb. please. guys. do your homework before you make comments

Its obvious you're loosing points and you're trying to elaborate on this.
Its well known that android has more HD games than symbian. But like I said in previous posts, there are over 50HD games available for symbian and I haven't finished playing even half. So before I'm done, more would have been released.
Well tintin is 1GB and it runs fine on belle. There are also several large HD games available.


Like I said in the post above this, give points and don't talk trash. I don't know whether we need to spell it out that this is about the OS on phones.
Afterall even blackberry has tablets. Or its like me saying that windows 8 tablets are better than android tablets cos its almost thesame OS on a PC and I haven't seen android PC's yet. If Nokia were into tablets before now, they would have produced a symbian one.

It looks like you're running out of stuff to talk on.
I posted a link and quote some on page 3 comparing belle FP1 and ICS for which I asked for reviews and noticed you all dodged it. Well for starters you could begin with that post

i dont talk of app bodi. i say features. apps are just fancy. pure yes nokia uses camera to blak mail u to buy der product. pure veiw is i tink 38mp or so and is windows. belive me 10mp on a phone is very good. wat will u do wit 38mp, unless u want to setup a photo studio wit ur phone. belive me the nokia 12 or 38mp is just to cover the fact dat de os is inferior and still sell their phone in a luxyrious price lyk der competitors.

ur are only talkin of apps. yes android is an app device dats why it is being used in google tv. tablet . computers. but belle is just for nokia phones. nokia haz notebook but it is windows.

believ me android apps are not useless it depends on wat u do wit ur phone.
nokia lovers will snap pic and make calls as long as dey wey want and i fancy dat coz i love nokia too but not the os. am seriously waitng for a nokia phone S40 d new asha316and no belle. all d nokia av alwaz used hav ben hig classed nokia java over20k.

but fo android lover dey just sit all day as long as der is power in der phone swaping. from apps to app. dey will play fifa if satisfied will switch to gtaIII. still if dat not enough dey pick a novel and read. still dey can wit wat u call it useless apps lyk psx or ps2 emulator connect is to der tv an play wit ps bt pads.

temmy.m3:
Waoh, This is one of my top most thread on NL. lol, Seeing symbian bad boyz like Ogidi-Olu, Jedisco etc with other guyz from droid world Debating? .. then u can be sure its gonna be a very interesting thread. Went thru all the thread, mehnn i must say some comments really made me laugh and fell down from a mango tree
*Droid users really needs to work more on their phone and bring out good reasons why a NOKIA BELLE device should be thrown into the trash can o. Though i have been much more into using Symbian, i had an HTC Chacha last year for few months cos i dont really feel my symbian Anna update much, i know it aint as expensiv as a galaxy or the xperias but at least i don run Gingerbread too before putting it aside when belle was leaked. both OS are interesting but i will compare based on Naija utilization plus my own personal use and not that of the normal oyinbo usage on and criticism.
*I was expecting some irrelivant points like SO MANY APPS FOR ANDROID THAN NOKIA. wtf?! i dont expect anyone from my own country to say dis na? how many have u downloaded & Used?? how many of dem are useful for u? not to talk of the fact that most of them do the same job, Some Droid market addict knows what i mean. U can find ALL, Yes, ALL USEFUL applications from droid market at NOKIA store. check it out yourself.
*Android OS maximum battery consumption is hell. Abeg HTC Chacha users, quote me wrong o, dont u charge ur damn phones every 2hrs of usage Yeah i know cos i was once a victim, i even got 1 battery free. i know HTC aint d only android phone, but what about the other products with droids too? are their battery life worth talking about??
*Droid consumes more data usage. i wont blame google for doing that, they expect their phone OS to have the same features like their Linux OS for PC.
*NoKia makes good HARDWARES no be lie talk. A good hardware combined with a belle OS? Ask Jedisco, Ogid-Olu & Flameforx. they can tell
Abeg no eat me raw Droid lovers o, didnt say droid is bad, infact i ll hav to admit that BELLE OS UI was copied from the combination of Droid and iOS, Android Game graphics cant be compared with that of Symbian, but Nokia HD Games aint bad at all, based on the fact that it ll run smooth on just a single core. A good droid phone with no dual core cpu these days is a NO-NO, whereas belle ll run smooth on a single core cos it s lighter.
Other OS addicts and symbian critics needs to wake up and try out what BELLE has to offer, u cant compare symbian s40s and s60s of the olden days with symbian^3, not to even talk of BELLE! Damn! its no more symbian... Its NOKIA BELLE! dont u get it? lol
Android is so awesome but it pays to be on BELLE than any other OS for now. Gbam

u pnly talk true i use both n dey re awsome buh nokia belle is two sweet ics make sense 2

c7 is only priced so becoz de camera 8mp and 3g speed 14mbps brought up de price. but for galaxy d price waz brought down coz some features were removed. d 16 gb waz reduced led flash removed. u feel me

1. 808 pureview runs belle fp1 not windows. 8MP is good for you cos you have not seen better.
Also it seems as if you don't get d idea of 808s camera. It has one of the largest sensors on a mobile with a dedicated GPU for the camera and xenon flash. But thats not all. It has very good digital zoom so u can take high quality close pictures from afar. Also the camera can be used at 5MP and 8MP resolution. Even at 8MP, the pictures from your galaxies (also with 8MP) come no where near.

2. Nokia has a notebook not a modern tablet. So what OS do you expect it to run? Notebooks are mini PCs.
The only tablet like device was way back in 2007 and it runs Maemo

3. Switching games and apps and eBook readers is what I do everyday on a belle device. The only difference is that my battery lasts a day for me with good usage But on an android device, it would last 3 hours so I would play a game, charge, use an app, charge and so on which obviously does not seem wonderful.

4. If you want to do a comparison, why not compare 701 which is about 50k and galaxy S which is also 50k. You should know which device is better

5. I noticed you're trying to run away from the crux of the matter which is symbian vs android on phones. If you've got nothing else to say, you should keep quiet

1. Instead of building stories in the sky why not list the things the S2 could do that the C7 couldn't which were as a result of OS limitations. And also try and attach the price of the two phones when you reply.

2. The good battery life applies to all symbian and Nokia products. I have a 1.3GHz device with full capacitive screen and gorilla glass and my phone lasts me a full day of good usage. Mind u it uses a 1,300mAh battery. Now give me any android device with a 1,300 mAh battery that lasts upto 6 hours.

3. You don't need to lie to gain points. Apple filed a suit to ban the sale of nexus in the U.S because some of their patents were stolen and used on nexus. They have also included S3 in the suit. Now that does not sound good for your android.
You definitely are a novice, CIA would have also banned all PCs cos there is nothing that phone does that a PC wouldn't do. Next time get your facts right, or better still don't lie.

4. Like I said you've just been jumping around d bush. Give reasons why you think android is better.

@bnnsz384:
This was my previous post I wanted you to see

jedisco: @topic
I saw something on this online sometime ago so I've searched for it and pasted it here

http://nokiapoweruser.com/2012/05/21/symbian-belle-vs-android-updated-with-belle-feature-pack-1-inputs/

so let me know what you guys think

Symbian has already moved from Belle to Belle Feature Pack 1 and is available for 603, 700 and 701 as a software update. The mighty 808 Pureview will come with Belle FP1 pre- loaded.That is why we felt a need for updating this popular comparison and bringing a fresh article comparing the latest of two operating systems. So the areas, where Symbian now has an upper hand as compared to Android, Better Widgets: The widget quality on Belle devices has got great boost with Belle FP1 adding as many as 20 new widgets. Also quality wise widgets on Symbian devices have more to offer. For example Symbian widgets take less space on the homescreen and important widgets like Social and E-mail are scrollable. So yu can just check the current mails or feeds without even opening the application. While Android widgets are not scrollable and you have to open the application to check more items. Dolby digital Plus: This is great feature for any operating system and great news for Symbian device owners with Belle FP1 compatible devices. Yes Belle FP1 brings Dolby digital plus to 603,700, 701 and 808 pureview. So you basically can enjoy Dolby surround sound with any headphones as the Dolby digital plus ability is inbuilt into the Symbian devices. Major advantage, if you compare even a low range 603 to even a high range Android like SGS II. Check the video for more about Belle Feature Pack 1, RAM requirements: This is really a major strength of Symbian Belle. Check the above screenshot of N8 and SGSII. The N8 even with all the apps like Mail, Social (Facebook & Twitter),Weather widget has got as much as 104 MB free RAM out of total 250 MB (RAM) . Compare that to Android devices having 500 MB RAM. I have seen as less
as 70-80 MB RAM left for running applications in those Android devices. That gives you true picture. Android can’t support true multitasking because it is so much resource intensive. Processing power requirements: Symbian belle makes phones running on single core processor clocked at 680 Mhz very smooth. For example N8.This is very surprising in the times when we need dual core and processors clocked at 1.2 GHz for Androids to run them smooth.viz SGS2. That is sufficient to show how efficient Symbian is as an OS. Please follow the link below to see N8 with belle in action. It is also worth noting that low speced Android phones are not that smooth in operations, and Symbian belle phones in the same price range can beat them easily. http://www.gsmarena.com/
new_belle_rom_for_nokia_n8_leaks_see_the_cha
news-3540.php Power consumption: This is where Symbian belle beats Android hands down.As Android needs more processing power to run the OS smoothly.It takes big toll on battery level of the device.We have heard a lot about how android users need
to carry chargers with them,and charge it twice sometimes thrice in a day. True & live Multitasking: This is one area where even, Android’s latest ICS( Ice cream sandwich) can’t hold a lamp to Symbian Belle. Symbian always had true multitasking,with Belle it goes one step ahead and becomes live multitasking with live app tiles!! Android still only supports only a fixed number of apps while multitasking, and freezes others. Now some areas where Android is still better than Symbian belle, Screen resolution: Though E6 has proved that Symbian can support resolution other than 640×360, but still Nokia has not come up with other devices with better resolution.Even 808 Pureview is coming with the same nHD resolution although with Nokia’s CBD (Clear Black Display) it looks fab and gives awesome outdoor visibility as well. Better apps eco system: Though it is not related to OS directly but apps eco system and quality wise, Android is better than Symbian.The number of app at Android market are nearly 300000. Symbian also has impressive numbers of around 110000. A comparison by “Allaboutsymbian” shows that all the top paid and free apps are also available in “Nokia store”.But if you compare the quality then as the apps of Android get more frequent updates than Symbian, quality wise some of Android apps are better than Symbian. Please let us know what you think about this comparison !!

JEDISCO's post is enough for anyone still confused of making a decision as far as Belle and Android is concerned! Nothin to add or Omit!

symbian z d best in aný aspect. RAM utilization, processor usage. Its all good.. Tweaking to users taste, even belle can use modified opera mini with cheat(thats one thing i cant leave symbian for) wetin i wan take 4.3 abi 4.5 inch screen do? I played Pes11 ön my friends HTC desire hd. I swear i didnt feel any difference except the resolution on my n8. Camera, droids are way bk. Nokia n8 shot got each blade of my fan running u would tink d fan aint workin. To me symbian z d best platform for mobiles.

Which Nokia phone is more high end right now than d 808pureview? And wat does it run on? Symbian Belle ain't it?

Bro, u're such an ignoramus! We have two types of touch screens: the resistive and the capacitive. The resistive touchscreen can b operated by any object; fingers, brooms, sticks, nails, etc but d capacitive is designed to work with only fingers hence, making it sleeker and more sensitive to touch. All nokia belle devices comes with a capacitive touchscreen.

And FYI, screens are not dependent on the OS.

Guy, before u make ridiculous posts, please make use of Google(it is really ur friend) #just an advice#.
Now to answer ur 'question', try using a broom to operate SG2 or N8 and see if it will work. Even ur nails cant work on them because they're both capacitive screens and ur finger is the only thing that can operate it(ofcourse, there are stylus for capacitive screens).
Yes, we have talking tom, talking cat, talking elephant, talking parrot, etc. They're all at ovi store.

Bros nor talk am ooo. There are MANY, I mean PLENTY things andriod can do that my beloved symbian cannot do.

Mafia4life: Bros nor talk am ooo. There are MANY, I mean PLENTY things andriod can do that my beloved symbian cannot do.

I'm quite curious cos I haven't owned an android device before although I have used it.

Perhaps you should outline those many or rather plenty things you are referring to.
Maybe about 10 out of the lot to start with

Ten men from Mushin trying to tell a thousand men that moved from mushin to park view that mushin is better than park view....... How do you think it will go.

Someone said, android is apps are hype, and that how many have we used.

Bro, the little i have used,(which is a lot) on my lg p350, still tells me android is better, feels better, acts better than a nokia.

Hell because of the little experience i had, i went and bought an android tablet.

Not trying to dis u nokia boys, but seriousily a lot of android users today where former nokia boys(symbian and java alike).

So from experience i have from my symbian phones(3650,5230,N95,E6) and java phones(3110c,5220 expressmusic,) my dingy Lg android phone wipes the floor with the lot of them.

This is from experience, park view(android) rocks.

Well I get it. To you android is better because you feel its better.
But its worrisome that you can't name those apps.
Like I said I don't have an android phone but if for once I wanted to go with this 400,000 apps which is the highest selling point of android (as flash has stopped supporting android starting from jelly bean), does it mean that you can't mention tangible apps that would make me want to change to android?
If you've been into apps for long, you would have noticed that once you get to a particular number 99% of what is left are not new and just pirated or substandard copies or simply bloatware. I think symbian has reached that point. The only difference is in maybe games but like I pointed out before, there are quite alot available for symbian.

Well the devices you mentioned are the major reason why symbian is where it is today. It took too long for Nokia to really upgrade symbian and so the opposition stole in.

But as of today, I feel the difference is not much with the current belle fp1. Especially when you consider that the android devices that give you a good experience are the expensive ones.

I would also not take you telling me that android is better cos they have more users. In most developing countries, BB is still leading the market.
In Nigeria, its BB, symbian then others.
But if android was really superior in all aspects as you claim, you shouldn't have a problem giving me examples

lol.. symbian better than android? this question shouldn't be asked. the difference is clear! I guess you haven't used a good android phone before comparing symbian to android. symbian is dead. you should be com pairing iOS to Android and not symbian. on Android u can install computer OS, can u do that on symbian? what will u be doing with a 32mp camera phone? when it is not a digital camera. seriously you need to do some digging before posting.

Is it that you people don't read or what?

I did not say which one is better.
If you think android is better then GIVE REASONS rather than repeating what several people have repeated.

Coming to the Computer OS, I don't understand it. Can you tell me the Computer OS you install on android?

hold up...so are you saying blackberry is better because it has more users? apart from the bbm, I don't see anything tangible in it. as for symbian, it was king....but the software has become a dinosaur. as good as symbian is, its living on borrowed time. besides, the issue of apps is more of a personal thingy. if you're looking for specific apps like ubersocial, LiveProfile or aldiko, symbian will be found wanting. thats why for my personal fun, I use android while I use a symbian device, Nokia E6 for business.

Winnerslfc: So have you ever got stuck in between two options on whether to buy an android powered phone or just buy a symbian phone? If you have been there before, can u tell us what ur final decion was and why?
Lets know your view.

is anybody still using symbian OS?


dawg, there's no comparison! even Apple's iOS is shaking in the face of the awesomeness called ANDROID ....#nuffsaid
