I missed this back when they did them in the 2010s.

The few people I knew who had them all really liked them and were disappointed that Microsoft pulled them from the market.

It's a shame because there really needs to be more major competition than Android or Apple.
 
Never but they did a big mess up and Android took there place and the rest as they say....
 
No, I owned Nokia with MeeGo 😂. I mean I still own it and use it as book reader sometimes, but I need a real reader because it might die any moment 😂. No Lumia for me 😂. Let's get real - siding with Microsoft almost killed Nokia, what a shame.
 
Yes, I had a Nokia for a brief moment, never liked it though so I sold it a couple of month later.
 
Nah was too transparent for me

They didn't want to put Android on their devices and went with Windows instead... Now they seem to be making the same mistake again. I'm using Nokia G42 right now and while they advertize it as sustainable phone that you can fix instead of getting new one each time, they of course... Blocked rooting so you can't install custom ROMs. While Motorola partnered with GrapheneOS so you could install Graphene on your Motorola. Deja vu 😐. Same mistake, Motorola is soooo going to kick their ass eh. Let's see how this progresses, my phone is fine and not dying at all, so I'm hoping to keep using it for couple years but if this continues then maybe my next one will be a Motorola.

BlackBerry was cool. I had one back in the day, and I thought it was cool as hell since it still had a keyboard.
