I think nokia should pay millions to apple/google to help them make better browsers...LOL...otherwise they shouldn't offer such unusable browsers.

Real life scenarios ?? Maybe here is one : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RB3jblrudoo

You can see how fast, smooth, easy to use is the iphone browser.
And your right about flash iPhone would be at rock bottom if they compare flash because iPhone doesn't support flash.

Again, I would like to see differences in real-life scenarios.

And would be so funny if they tested Flash performance too, but if they did that, of course the poor iPhone browser would be on a unfavorable position, not convenient for american, is it?

Thats iPhone for you, always one step behind. They will release it on their next phone and call it iNFC, you can only use it with APPLE approved hardware, so stores will have to buy a normal NFC device support and then an Apple one.

my PC browser (chrome) scores around 200,000 points, a bada phone (I tested) scores around 19000 and most android phones scores more than 20000 points.

the benchmarks were done by anandtech.com which is A reputed tech site (which does benchmarks) so the scores are very believable.

and i wonder which android phone u tried panning, because panning in my phone is perfectly smooth.

I don't see in real life scenarios how Android browser is better, all the pages that I browse load fast and everything is simply smooth. I just don't believe in everything that I read, but for you, to see N8 on a unfavorable position is enough for you to believe.

Maybe you saw that in your wildest dreams.....Android and iOS browsers are lightyears ahead of both n8 stock browser and opera browser (in n8).
Here's a benchmark:

[deleted post]Hahaha, end up where? As the biggest phone maker that it still is? Nokia rule the mobile market, mate, when I say "Mobile market" I'm talking about the world, not USA.
Nokia can still lead even with such a insignificant market share on USA, that proves how it's a strong company. (:
I know you want so badly that Nokia lose its first position, but Windows Phone will make it return far away ahead from the competition where it always been. So Nokia will be big the way it is forever, it will never be small as HTC, SE and Motorola are today, that together don't represent half of Nokia market.
