@bilacola NOKIA isnt the shitty, Apple is. Selling expensive phones with non customizable UI and weak performance (except 4S). You can get better phones for lower price. Open your eyes dude!

Well this is from NOKIA... not Apple !!!!

@vakkov Official support from the manufacturer has NOTHING to do with actual compatibility of Android. They just don't have the resources or the intrest to keep updating old phones. X8 runs ANY version of Android, just like the first Android, HTC G1, does when custom ROMmed. Get your facts straight. I'm not even gonna respond to the UI claim since it's subjective. Symbian is pretty much dead, that speaks for itself.

@esaedvik hahaha the first android phone runs latest versions... xperia x8 which is from 2010 and has 600 mhz cpu and graphic accelerator runs android 2.1 (the latest is 2.3). And there are many other examples for phones with hardware not supporting latest versions of android. So stop talking bulshits about symbian which to be fair has a better UI than android

It's just matter of time before Apple starts another war of annoyance to hate competition

[esaedvik]

@fcitifciti It doesn't, since any old Android phone runs android just fine, you just can't play the latest games with them like you can with new phones. Even the FIRST Android phone EVER from 2008 runs the latest versions. Nokia is far from smooth and far from quality unfortunately. Nokia has always put old hardware in their devices and they've lagged horribly and they seem to continue the trend even now. I hope the new WP7.5 phones aren't as slow as the symbian ones.

From all "phone developers" I only hate Nokia from bottom of my heart! I would never buy their product!

I once dropped my nokia N900 in lake, it still works.

@Jeahavee Probably.

@esaedvik this is just mean that nokia doesn't need a faster processor to run its device...but apple and adroid need it to run their device smoothly..!!!crap.!!bitch..
