Symbian will enter the 'retirement'

It is no secret, slowly Symbian - which later changed its name to Belle - will enter the 'retirement'. However, the operating system (OS) that was once the mainstay of Nokia is likely to retire early, earlier than previously estimated that in 2015. In an interview with TechRadar, and was launched on Friday (01/20/2012)

Nokia CEO Stephen Elop admitted that Symbian's market share has declined significantly, especially in the United States (U.S.) and the UK.

Indications of an early retirement Symbian also strengthened, while Elop said that Nokia often hear from consumers that the OS is hampered by a number of fundamental competitive challenges, and there is no way to be resolved.

To restore its glory, Nokia received a call Microsoft to use Windows Phone on handsets. This step helps Nokia to supply software that can follow the development of mobile technology and enables the Finnish vendor is cutting costs. Elop hope that the agreement with Microsoft allows Nokia to focus on innovation that will put the company back in the competition. "We chose an alternative platform as we continue to experience a decline in Symbian," he added.
