Nokia 2010: Cool Hardware, Terrible Software

Nokia in 2010: "Let's make the coolest phone ever with the worst software ever" most satisfying hinge ever AMOLED display in 2010 always on display in 2010 a frickin' HDMI port unfortunately it runs stupid Symbian, the shitty Nokia OS

A hand demonstrates a Nokia smartphone from around 2010, showing off its satisfying hinge, AMOLED screen, always-on display, HDMI port, and stylish interface. The punchline is that despite the impressive hardware, the phone runs the notoriously frustrating Symbian operating system, making it a nostalgic but sarcastic reaction to overengineered technology. Claptone’s “No Eyes” provides sleek, upbeat electronic music that makes the hardware reveal feel dramatically luxurious while contrasting with the final software complaint.
