So i hope that satisfy your mis-assumption that android is similar to windows.

If you're a teenage you probably want a phone that rocks. If you're a guy that just wants things done, a phone that works is more than enough. And if it overrides any Android phone on the camera, GSM and Wi-fi signal, sound quality, GPS, HDMI, build quality like the Nokia N8 does, that you have more than enough reasons to stick with Symbian even if Android "rocks" and is "cool". At this point in 2011 there is no real competition for Nokia N8 from Android yet (I mean a phone with compact camera photo and video quality plus xenon, five band HSDPA, same quality of signal or sound, HDMI, FM Transmitter, USB OTG, video digital zoom without loss of quality, very good GPS connection with free navigation included, etc). I'll be watching Android phones when they'll have a competitive phone in all fields, not just a phone with a very fast processor.

[deleted post]lol. u got it all wrong. first of all, 'hd games' are just a marketing ploy which all started by gameloft and then followed by other companies. hd actuall refers to the amount of detqil the game has compared to java games. s60v3 phones too had 'hd games' with qvga screens. heck even android and ios have 'hd games' but their screen resolution is not even up to 720p hd level too. explain that.
second, dont get confuse between the os and the graphic card. some android 2.2 phones and iphohe 3gs had worse graphic card compared to those available in symbian'3 phones. and can u post me the link proving that the symbian 3 gpu doesnt support half of the opengl requirements of a power sgx card?
thirdly samsung didnt dump symbian 3, it was s60v5, 2 totally different versions. and the reason why samsung (and se) dumped symbian is because nokia now owns symbian and they cant provide the updates and services like what is nokia doing right now (eg ovi maps). in other words samsung and se are lazy and only hoping for other companies to do all of the hard work in developing an os while they juwt provide the hardware

FYI, HD means 1080x1920 not 360x640 as on S3 phones. Lol. The only thing relevant for games, except resolution, is openGL capability. And when you talk about openGL you want to have openGL 2.0. And Symbian 3 has less than half of the openGL extensions iOS and Android 2.2 have. Add this to the much lower resolution of Symbian compared with the other two, and if you are honest you know S3 is the worst solution for games. Btw, if S3 is so good why it was dumped by Samsumg, S-E and why Nokia moves to Meego?

Anonymous, 17 Jan 2011you jst try Android first before you complain.Android is 10x better than symbian.i test mobiles for cosmote romania. i've tested android and i hate it. it's true,not as much as i hate iphone junk o.s.. symbian is the most versatile and easy to use o.s. for mobiles,especially symbian 3 wich is perfect:fast and stable syncro with p.c. with ovi suite,map free downloads,perfect compatibility with hacked free softwares (especially for gps ones like sygic drive,route66,etc),flash memory reading via usb 3,divx-hd and mp4-hd playback and recording and many other things. symbian 3 is better,faster and stable,and all because it's made by nokia and improved for 10 years. YOU must try symbian 3 before talking about android

Look, the reason Symbian S60v5 lags is because it stil uses the Avkon SDK as itz UI framework which is NOT optimised fer touch screen phones, itz got nothin te do wit being fragmented blah blah blah. Only phone that Im yet te point out lags from out of the box is the iPhone 4, otherwise all others (that I have seen) lag; Galaxy S? Lag. Desire HD? Lag. Xperia X10(albeit 1.6)? Lag. Wave? Lag. Hell the 2.2.1 Galaxy S laged more than the v50 firmware 5800, and that says smethn

if you noticed
android and windows are in the same boat
high specs to run and crap battery life
trust me i dual booted my laptop and ubuntu(linux) runs smoother and faster on the same specs and windows is always struggling
symbian 3 as will speak is not as bad at windows and adroid
cause it's on nokia own hardware
android and windows are tossed and pulled all over the place
with different specs from different companies

My i8910HD running on s60v5 is more laggy than my nexus one and iphone4. Similarly, it has the weakest hardware spec amongst the 3. Hmmm... Okie, you are telling me that symbian is meant to be slow? Or that symbian is hardware dependent too?
