The WP7 phones are much more similar to each other though, both in software and hardware (same chip). Plus, Nokia will have NO control over the OS. And they wouldn't benefit from Android's huge momentum. Even late entrants like LG are selling millions of Android phone units.
I thought they wanted to make their own OS so they don't get commoditized and distinguished only by hardware. How is WP7 helping them doing that? It's much worse than Android in that respect.
- blub 16y agoThe Android UI tweaks are almost irrelevant and universally despised, so not much of an advantage there. Neither Android nor WP7 would help much here. I wonder how much of Android's momentum is actually just the fact that the phones look cool. Do most of the customers know that they're running Android like they do with iPhone? What would Nokia's differentiators be?
