Do you have a source for this rumour of choice of OS on new Nokia devices?

They are definitely coming with an android phone, nice looking design too. I was wondering how their relationship with Microsoft would be after this year and if they'd decide on Windows in the future. I'd pick the Windows variant over any android variant if it's offered.

There was a report by NPU on the c1 possibly running two different Operating Systems (Android/Windows), but that was in 2015.

Nokia will never ever going to build windows mobile phones again.
Lessons learned.
Its saver for them to go with Android then with Windows.

nothing new that is already in the public. Q4 is already running and we only have a few snapshots of "maybe device that Nokia could launch" . It is unlikely that a dual boot device is under development. The most expected is Nokia D1C but still nothing is concrete about it from Nokia.

As D1C is already listed on a eseller website here: Nokia D1C Best Price in India 2016, Specifications & Review

which again could just be hot air.

I will be waiting for a 1020-like Android or Win 10 phone form Nokia. Maybe with more pixels and even better optics?

Right And everything goes down the toilet again, just like maemo and meego.

Re: Nokia mobile is coming back with choice of OS(es).

I think it's going to be difficult for Nokia to reenter the smartphone space. The brand is still strong with people nostalgic for the 90s but the Smartphone space is so wrapped up now with lots of competitors. Leaving aside Apple and Samsung, the Chinese are starting to build great phones and Google are throwing their weight in. I don't see how a company the size of Nokia can compete in that space.

 

[GeorgeFormby]

Re: Nokia mobile is coming back with choice of OS(es).

I think they'll make some budget level devices but not really enter a strong flagship contender. It's interesting to note that they do not shoulder the burden of the development costs but then equally do not get as much of the reward.

Unless they try Windows again...

Re: Nokia mobile is coming back with choice of OS(es).

Nokia would be wise to offer both Android and Windows variants. There is a huge void in the Windows Phone space with the "retrenchment" of Microsoft Mobile, and I'm sure that many of us would quickly pick up a new Nokia Windows flagship if it were made available.

No sense limiting your sales to one or the other, cater to both markets and a larger prospective customer base.

Get with the times, it is now called SailfishOS! :wink:

 

[TechFreak1]

Re: Nokia mobile is coming back with choice of OS(es).

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Sailfish by Jolla... would have thought Jolla being Finnish and all it would be a no brainer. Keep the R & D in Finland and have the manufacturing outlay reside with an ODM.

Although I would love to see Finnish built phones again... sadly I don't see that happening anytime soon.

Drat! you beat me to the punch!

That's what happens I suppose when you go to cook late dinner haha...
