The main expectation from Symbian-based devices was to have 150 million sales. Nevertheless, the expectations were not fulfilled as the manufacturer’s Symbian smartphones didn’t get appropriate attention from the customers. This was one of the biggest fails of the company, that’s why the manufacturer shifted its production towards the Windows Phone handsets.
According to the British The Register Nokia will no longer continue the production of Symbian handsets except for one model.
Which will be that model? Well, it will be the successor of the Nokia N8. Similar to the Nokia N9, which is based on MeeGo OS, this model will get lots of updates and enhancements after its launch and after the suspension of the platform’s production. Still the rest of the devices will get Nokia Belle update this year, which will be the final update for all of those models.
The main difference between the Nokia N8 successor and the rest of Nokia devices is the powerful camera. Perhaps it’ll come with a 12 megapixel camera, though the 13 megapixel one is not excluded either. I believe we’ll have more detailed info at MWC 2012 in Barcelona.
