Nokia - what went wrong?
Nokia
Angel Thomas
Jonathan Lewis
They pussied out and didn't innovate enough.
Jason Sullivan
when Stephen Elop became the CEO of Nokia after former CEO Jorma Ollila whom were against Elop.
Elop then cucked nokia by selling it to microsoft
Ryder Brown
Focus too much on camera. Forgot everything else. Tried too much stuff at same time.
David Thomas
Nothing, they achieved it in 2001. Pic related.
Pretty much the 1st smartphone for everyone.
Carson Morris
bump
Lincoln Butler
They didn't go disappear quickly enough. Thankfully Microsoft bought it and got rid of the trash.
David Cooper
I had that phone. It was awesome.
Alexander Gutierrez
Also focus on third world market with cheap phones doesn't bring a lot of profit.
Adrian Baker

Lincoln Bell
shut up
Everything is lost. Nokia is fucking doomed with no sigh of salvation.

nokia knew they haven't a chance and quit
it is not like sony/htc/lg enjoy big cash from mobile market
Nathan Campbell
Or, maybe he cucked MSFT (and threw NOK a line) by selling them a dying company (NOK) with a dying platform (Symbian) for x birrion dorra.
It was a mutually beneficial high-risk-high-reward transaction. Too bad NOK couldn't capitalize on it enough to make a comeback.
Parker Jenkins
My Lumia 830 is holding up very well thanks
Aaron Parker

Nathan Lee

Phew that was close one
Chase Rodriguez
RIP
Parker Ross
Microsoft happened.
William Stewart
If they chose the Android route instead of Windows Mobile, would they still exist?
Samuel Sullivan
Yep. They had a lot of following, and their phones were still good build quality, the only problem was that Windows Phone rendered them pretty much useless.
Gabriel Hughes
The worst thing about this is that they had plans for modern smartphone in 1996 and very neat things in their r&d units yet they somehow managed to fuck it all up.
Luke Parker
They tried so hard to be Blackberry they followed them into mediocrity
Jose Bailey
you both are stupid fucking idiots and should know the N9 would be king if Microsoft didn't happen
ask me why the N9 is king

Christopher Morales
This mentality broke Nokia down.
Andrew Gomez
T-That phone looks bigger than 5 inch :c
Ayden Reed
Stayed too long with Symbian and then went with windows phone. Not even Maemo would have saved Nokia because they were too late to the party.
