Rest in peace Symbian. But I'll still be using my Nokia N8 from time to time though I've now moved on to a Nokia Lumia 920. Symbian may have died now but the phones itself like my N8 seems like brand new still. Not even a single scratch from 2 years of use.

Go for Android, you guys will not survive with Windows Phone alone. No symbian for basic and mid range phones?

In fact it was something expected to happen , and i would like say that as mutch i loved Symbian os as mutch i hated Nokia , because nokia who killed symbian os and it didnt work on it real development , i agree with those who are saying that symbian is the base of smartphoe , i knew and learned " smartphone " word through Nokia symbian os ,
And i've got 6600,7610,6630,3250,5800,N70,N80,N81,N85,N91,N93­,E66,Navigater,N97. That what i really remember .

Actually the best Symbian S60v5 (touch screen) device did not come from Nokia but from Samsung, the Omnia HD I8910.

Yes even better than n97 since it featured a 3.7" AMOLED screen and vastly better 600MHz single core CPU and 256MB ram.

we all know that nokia's best hits was on symbian. Yesterday I bought an nokia c6-01 and i am not sorry,is a good one and this phone is the last one with symbian in last 7 years(i still have parts from years ago in a box).Good luck Nokia but don't stay only on WM because is very boring. R.I.P symbian after you made bilions of people happy

bye symbian OS. Nokia was, will and always number one here in the phil. From 3650,n70,n71 ,c5,x6,n8 to lumia 920..im proud to say that u truly are c0nnecting people. Symbian was the most popular os here where in fact, locals created community website exclusive for symbian user. As i heard this news, i switched directly to my 7yrs old n70 which is still damn in very good condition and currently writing this comment. King of multitasking,quality,service and OS. Symbian rocks
