Nokia phones will use a different Font.

[Winterfang]

So aparently the Nokia phones are not going to use the bootylicious Segoe phone we are know and love and instead will choose to use Comic Sans, lol I'm just kidding it will use something called Pure. It barely looks different but I would like the option to revert back.


Nokia Windows Phones to use "Pure" Font

Who knows you may be able to choose! I dont see that much difference but over on WMPower the posters are all up in arms for the most part.

I'm not going to believe it until I see the official release.

 

[jfa1]

Yep I dont see any reason to get all upset even if its true when the first devices are released. But at this point is seems speculative at best. Its not life and death anyhow!

 

[cckgz4]

I don't care to be honest. As long as the hardware delivers

 

[red grenadine]

If true, I'd hope for the ability to change to the default. Nothing against Nokia, I just have a hard-on for the Segoe font in WP7

 

[velvetelvis]

i think they look enough alike that i like both of them.

 

[selfcreation]

cost them 7million from MS to create a new font? lol ...

what was the point of MS givign so much to NOKIA?? ?Nokia hasn’t done anything special with the OS ( so far )

i dont get it , its like MS just pissed 7million $$ away into the wind.

maybe it was to help NOKIA pay for the demolition team to take down their stores? lmao!

Nokia Sabre ?

YUK! (IMO) LOL

 

[Pronk]

Could be worse!

the understatement: Roboto vs. Helvetica

 

[jfa1]

Indeed!

 

[power5]

Sego is cleaner and goes with the UI more.

Really, a movie about Helvetica?

Not really a big difference to me, looks good regardless

 

[jfa1]

they both look okay! as far as the money from MS it for way more than I font!
