15-05-2010 12:37am#1Its a bit hard to generalise this since some phone manufacturers use few different OS so heres the easiest way i think, put some examples for those who might be lost a bit
- iPhoneOS? ( Straight forward the iPhone
) - Android? (HTC Hero, HTC Desire, Samsung i7500 Galaxy, Google Nexus 1)
- Symbian? ( Nokia's Mainly, Some Samsungs and the Sony Ericsson Satio)
- Maemo? (Nokia N900)
- Windows Mobile? (HTC HD2, Samsung Omnia II,
HP iPack 900, Sony Ericsson Xpreria x1a)
which one and why? Which one you prefer/like most? 93 votes

i nearly went for the N900, but its still in early stages of development with maeomo 5.
though you have to give Nokia credit for being one of few manufacturers left that can produce an easy to use smarthphone for the average user...most of that majority wont mind it being a bit slow 0 -

I'm quite happy with my N900, but lack of handsets and the phone's lack of appeal to most people and all that.....0 -

well just wait and see i think i seen something that nokia is undergoing to signing a contract to sign with maemo for MeeGo to combine symbian and MeeGo OS and matching hardware to make something new guess we will have to see
i remember the days when symbian was d **** and my 6680 was a god
though it seems as other developers are coming back to maemo since the release of N900..time will tell how this will come out 0 -

I was considering a N900 at the start of the year and while I like Nokia I feel they are juggling way to many phone operating system at the moment and need to focus on just 1 at this point to get a decent app store in place.
If only HTC could do Nokia's level of phone to PC software with their Android phones :cool:0 -

while i get your point, Nokia's symbian is way behind other phone os like android and iPhone, and needs something new to attract developers!
I wanted to get the N900 too but after N97 i was scared of getting a nokia then looked at the HD2 and seemed very nice though waiting till the Evo 4G will come out to Ireland and UKIphone because a girl has to have all the apps.
what apps might they be ? 0 -

I don't think the Evo is going anywhere outside of the states.0 -

well im praying it will...would be a shame...even if it come it will be a shame that we wont have 4G Internet for phones till 2099
hopefull either HTC will release a WP7 update with sense for HD2 or some one will cook a rom...i want them 3D games
the only thing i envy from the Evo 4G is the 8MP camera 0 -

Microsoft are not allowing 3rd party GUIs on Windows Phone 7, so unfortunately you're going to have to make do with the HD2's current GUI.0 -

Winmobile 7 is not going to be released as updates for older winmobile phones so if you must have WP7 best wait till newer phones with it come out.0 -

The N97 and N900 have almost nothing in common.... but i still expect Maemo to get a pasting in this poll.
Evo is a very nice looking phone though.0 -

Right from their OVI software down to being able to use you're own headphones with the phone remote control unit just show Nokia really understand today's mobile phone customer.
The problem I feel is the sheer amount of phones Nokia release and then failing to give enough support to due to silly amounts of phone OS's. A high end Nokia device running Android would be an insane money maker for them imho.0 -

You need to find a decent touchscreen
Most phones now are touchscreen, buttons are going so quickly out of fashion. 0 -

hmm Windows are good at PDA's not phones... Wanted to bash my i900 off the wall so many times.
iphony, please... No sheep here.
Android? Were getting there but not just yet. Also no matter what they say, Google is evil!
Maemo, Ah now your talking! Open to the world and so powerful in the right hands it's my device of choice.
(while I understand it's not a device for joe blogs, it so could have been... oh well)
have to disagree. i love my hd2. sense makes sense of windows mobile 0 -

Oh yea it's better alright with it for sure but I didnt think MS did Sense, maybe I'm wrong.
Hell if I could have a Maemo device with Sense UI/Apple slickness OS and app store i'd be sold! Just tell me who I have to hand my cash to! 0 -
