Nokia E6, the Bold 9900 wannabe? [video]
First impressions of the Nokia E6; my T-Mobile SIM is staying in it most of the time | Nokia Experts
So nokia just released a little overview and review of the new Nokia E6 and looking just like a BlackBerry Bold, I had to watch it. I almost feel dirty after watching the video.. I just don't see how someone could choose that phone after using an actual BlackBerry... I mean the whole "Liquid Graphics" crap that RIM is saying sounds goofy and all, but after being so used to seeing videos of the 9900 with it's Liquid Graphics, this Nokia seems like it is wayyyyyy behind its time.
I find it very funny how the middle "trackpad" on the Nokia is nothing but an up, down, left, right button, but it is trying to be and look like the BlackBerries trackpad.
I am not here to smash on the Nokia E6, but there is one point that I am here to say. After seeing this device, I feel a LOT more comfortable with what RIM is doing.. Everyone is saying "oh yeah RIM would have been good if they released the Bold 9900 3 years ago, now is way too late".
Just look at its competitors, they are nice phones I guess, same DPI as an iPhone, but the smoothness just isn't there.. And loading a simple "settings" tab in that phone leads to the annoying little 'Loading...' animation.
I find it annoying that people are saying RIM is so behind the times and they are still F*cked because I honestly believe that the Bold 9900 is going to be the top phone of 2011... YES, I am ACTUALLY saying that I believe that it is up there with the iPhone.
Apple makes 1 phone a year, whereas RIM is making what? 7? I mean OBVIOUSLY they quality of such a large corporation making ONE phone is going to exceed a competing company making 7 within the same time frame, but I feel like they have put more time and effort into this 99xx then they have any phone in the past.
I have seen many people say "RIM should be like Apple and just make 1 AWESOME phone, where I say that would completely kill them.. They have to stick with a candybar, full touch and torch (for those indecisive people who don't know which they want ;)) (obviously just kidding) but I think that RIM is completely in the right spot right now.. They are where they SHOULD be for the current times. Looking at the competitors of the 99xx currently out/coming out soon, I feel that RIM is in NO WAY at the bottom of the list.
