That's what I can't understand. Why even buy Nokia if there was no intention of continuing to manufacture phones a few years later? If they had released three new phones (low end, mid tier, flagship) in February 2017 they would have at least kept up with previous earnings. If the flagship model (and perhaps even the mid tier) were released as the rumored "Surface" models and specced appropriately, they would likely have seen a small increase initially and greater sales as the year goes on.
Instead, we get more advertising and less privacy than before, in Windows 10 on the desktop. I'm done, Microsoft.
- bpicolo 10y agoI wonder if they aren't hoping to leverage React Native's growth to expand the platform's app offerings (eventually). The real problem is that innovation in the mobile space has just stagnated. It was a 10-year explosive all-in from Apple and Google and the winners are kinda just in place now. The industry happened very quickly. I don't see a compelling reason for consumers to jump ship unless something big actually comes about (why would they?)
