Through the history of Nokia .... !!
Nokia is the most recognized brand in the world. When it comes to Nokia, the first thing that comes to mind is the phone, along with a lot of memories. Nokia will be the first phone for many of us. How did a company that was so successful, so influential and so pioneering come under the control of Microsoft today? A look back at Nokia's history.Nokia was started in 1865 by Fredrik Idestam, a mining engineer, who started a sawmill in the southern Finland. A few years later Nokianvirta set up his second mill on the banks of the river and named his company Nokia, inspired by the name of the river.Inspired by the name of the river, he named his company Nokia. In the following years, Nokia expanded its reach into the rubber, cable, tire, TV, and boot sectors. The earlThe news came in the international media and made Nokia very popular.
Sales of various Nokia products plummeted during the recession in Europe following the collapse of the Soviet Union, and the company's top management suffered a setback. Elected CEO in 1992, Jorma Ollila made the most decisive decision in the company's historyy Nokia was not the Nokia we see and know today.
The history of modern Nokia dates back to the 1960s. A time when the Cold War was raging. The Soviet Union and the United States tested their powerful bombs in several places. The atmosphere around the world is terrifying. It also had an impact on Finland, a neutral country. The Finnish government has decided to conduct more research in the field of radio and telephone. Nokia will be awarded the contract.By the 1970s, they had developed a civilian radio car telephone network that connected all cars. Production and sales of these products increased significantly in the 1980s and Nokia was able to export 50% of its production. Nokia began operations in the United States in 1985. History of Soviet leader Gorbachev phoning Nokia's Mobira Cityman from Helsinki to Moscow in 1987.- Focus only on telecommunication. That decision set the course for Nokia for the next 15 years. The years from 1992 to 2006 are known as Nokia's golden age
Golden Age (1992-2006)
The 1990s were the golden age of mobile technology itself. For the first time in history, even remotely able to connect with loved ones at any time via mobile phones. The influence of Nokia's range of phones was huge. It was Nokia's engineers who realized earlier that this was the technology of the future that would help make the mobile phone industry, which was in its infancy, one of the largest industries in the world today.
The Nokia 1011, launched in 1992, was a milestone in mobile phones. It was the world's first GSM or 2G phone. We still use the same technology today. Launched in 1994, the Nokia 2110 has created quite a stir in the market. It had a larger display, phonebook, missed call and message notification than any previous phone.At the same time, the familiar Nokia Tune ringtone was introduced for the first time on this phone. It was also the first phone to send and receive text messages .The Nokia 2110 is one of the most sold phones in the world.The Nokia 9000 communicator, launched in 1997, was the oldest phone in the world. With all the features found on a modern phone, including the qwerty keyboard, web browsing, email, fax, word processing, spreadsheet, it's not too late to arrive on the market. The high price also affected its sales. The snake game first appeared on the Nokia 6110, which was released in 1997. Nokia overtook Motorola in 1998 to become the world's largest phone makerBecame a selling company. Around the same time, Nokia, Ericsson, Motorola and PSion formed the Symbian OS. Symbian was the most advanced OS at the time. In addition to Nokia, companies such as LG, Samsung, Motorola, Sony Erricsson, Fujitsu and Sharp have also launched Symbian phones. Ironically, the same symbian was a factor in Nokia's downfall.In 2002, they launched the world's first 3G phone, the 6650, and their first camera phone, the 7650. Nokia's first major failure was the release of the N - Gage in 2003. Launched as a gaming phone, it could not shine as a phone or gaming device.

Launched in 2004, the Motorola Razr Flip has made waves around the world. There has been criticism from investors that Nokia is focusing only on high end phones as other companies try to capture the market by launching different types of phones. Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo, who took over as CEO from Jorma Ollila in 2006, has merged Nokia's smartphone-feature phone segments. This loose work in management marked the beginning of Nokia's downfall.
Fall
Let's take a look at how Nokia, which dominated the mobile phone market, fell.
Nokia's N - Series phones have been the dream of every phone lover for the first half of the last decade. In particular, the N 95. With all the features found on a modern phone, the only problem with this phone was that its human-machine interaction was not correct. But the fact is that in those days no one paid any attention to it.
But with the launch of the first iPhone in 2007, things changed. The iPhone (the first LG PRada) was the second full touch phone in the world with a capacitive touch screen. Nokia's first blow came from here. To make matters worse, the world's first android phone, the HTC Dream, was released next year. As an alternative, Nokia has released some full touch phones, but the iPhone and Android are far ahead of the Symbian.nokia
Former Vice President and Design Chief Frank Newer said that Nokia's management did not have a sense of urgency. For example, Nokia designed an 8-inch tablet years before the first ipad was launched. But they did not try to bring it to market. In addition, when the first iPhone was released, they said that it would cost a lot to make iPhonesBut they use 2G, which is older than Nokia's 3G phones, and no one can break their innocence. However, Nokia soon recognized the challenge of the iPhone and Android and began to recapture the market. For that, Nokia had a team within Meego to update the old Symbian OS and build a new OS to replace it. This led to a rivalry within the company itself. they were doing more fighting than designing.The delay in making decisions was also a setback for Nokia. Although there was an easy way to switch to android, they did not. Their stance on it was like this -switching to android is like pissing in your pants for warmth.
Steven Elop became Nokia's CEO in 2010. In February 2011, Nokia announced that its smartphones would no longer use Windows OSIn April 2012, Samsung overtook Nokia to become the world's largest phone seller. In September 2013, Microsoft announced that it would acquire Nokia, which had been plunging from loss to loss.
Spy ???
There are many who believe that steven elop was a Microsoft spy. Elop was Microsoft's head of business division before taking over as CEO of Nokia. On the same day that Microsoft acquired Nokia, Microsoft paid a $ 18.8 million bonus to Elop in Microsoft.
All the decisions to use the phone add to this suspicion ... !!!
