Docomo phones were(are?) a Japan-only irrelevance.
Granted - Symbian was a thing back then, but can you buy a Symbian phone today? Consumers voted with their money, and they wanted iPhones, not Nokias.
Fast forward to 2019, Nokia is nothing more than a trademark - making generic Android phones on one hand, and cashing in on nostalgia with their feature phones on the other hand.
- pjmlp 7y agoThat doesn't change the fact that Apple did NOT create the smartphone.
- htfu 7y agoBut they wrote "Apple created THE smartphone.", not "Apple CREATED the smartphone." To me those mean entirely different things.
- pjmlp 7y agoA better marketed PDA with phone capabilities?
- t0ddbonzalez 7y agoI didn't say they created the smartphone. They created THE smartphone - the definitive item.
- pjmlp 7y agoYou mean the were more successful marketing a PDA with phone capabilities? I guess they got something out of Newton.
- t0ddbonzalez 7y agoYes. Apple successfully marketed a product which was tested by Nokia engineers and deemed to be inferior. What part of 'consumers voted with their money' don't you understand?
