Comment on Symbian: The forgotten FOSS phone OS

  Well, I can’t speak for that one as I’ve never used it (nice though, looks like a proper Nokia should, gone through war and still running fine!), but the 5800 was a completely new experience for me in terms of phone-mounted speakers. Like, this was like a miniaturised sound system. The levels were unexpectedly balanced, the speakers were mounted well apart (at either end of the phone lengthwise), the stereo definition was very clear and dynamic, and it was loud enough to use as background music generator for a light social gathering, like a dorm room mini-party, setting the mood for… other activities, etc.)
