The Finnish mobile phone manufacturer Nokia stops selling feature phones and smartphones with Symbian. in the United States The company will only continue to sell phones with Windows Phone.
That Symbian is becoming less popular, is known. On the other side of the ocean, sales of phones with this OS are even worse than in Europe. Sales of Symbian devices over there are marginal. Chris Weber, the director of the U.S. division of Nokia, came with the news in an interview with Ina Fried of the blog All Things D. There is no slow phase-out: when Windows Phone is in the shops, Nokia will stop selling with Symbian and devices running on S40.
In Europe, Nokia will eventually also stop the delivery of devices running on Symbian. The development of the OS was recently given over to consultancy firm Accenture. It was then agreed that Symbian is supported until 2016, so european buyers of the devices that run Symbian don’t have to worry.
