Nokia 701 - Symbian Deserve this?

Question

Please note
It seems a rather illogical and questionable step by Nokia not to grant the portion of their customers that completely appreciate the purity of the Symbian platform with a fundamental upgrade in aspect of the 'screen size' given.
X700 released prior offers 4inch, while the 701 with a 1Gb equivalent Processor, 512 RAM gets a 3.5inch? It's a good question?

Answer 1

jimmyireland, I respect your prediction that a new line up of phones running belle will hopefully be released, I honestly hope so.
Your right though, not everybody wants a 'bigger' screen. Good and fair enough call. However, Nokia is releasing 3 phones, 600, 700 and 701. All have 1GHz processors, but why out of the 3 releases, is there no consideration given to those that would prefer a larger screen? We're talking about larger screen sizes but in all respect to NOKIA, we're not talking MASSIVE, we're only comparing it with most of the other smartness out there available, which most come equipped with at least a 4inch screen!
Fair enough again, they say the 700 is one of their most compact and 'eco-friendly' smartphones, so OK, they are concentrating rather hard on achieving a smaller package BUT, to date, why is there not a phone out there that offers most of the capabilities of the N8, C7, etc, with 1GHz processor with a 'fair' screen size?
Since the release of the N8, you would expect considerable progress. Yes, with the Belle and software enhancements, they have achieved an extraordinarily level of accuracy on their QWERTY keyboard, considering a 3.5inch does still allow a user to quite comfortably type using two fingers holding an N8 upright BUT, in comparison again with the IPhone and many other examples, a 4inch offers much more level of accuracy and usability in regards to to this aspect.
Also in regards to camera's, I have another question. Has there since, the release of the N8, been some form of formal agreement not to pursue smartphones dominating the market regarding digital cameras? I mean who wants to pay hundreds of dollars for a digital camera when a few more hundreds could land you a smartphone that can do ALL!
Is this the reason the 12megapixel hasn't been adopted on later releases or were there just mere issues regarding the 12? Rather, will we see Nokia specifically in this case, pursuing on improving the camera qualities of their smartphones or is 8megapixel the new foundation?
Again I want to make clear. X7 released after, has a larger screen, much nicer but same specifications. It was clear a more powerful processor would be required to give the user complete comfort, specifically with the quality of of FLASH and JAVA on the native browser, which apparently does consume and require a lot of RAM to operate properly. There were all types of 'freezing' issues, 'lag', or just complete malfunction, since then I should say has been more than rectified with optimal software improvements BUT the question is still there, WHY?
A phone with the capabilities of the new ' beautifully evolved' Symbian Belle platform, along with a 1GHz processor, 512 RAM AND A ****4INCH**** screen would put it right up there as surely 'dominant' competitor with the IPhone 4, AND without much hesitation in my words, most likely would surpass the capabilities of the upcoming Iphone 5, whatever that is!
So again why is Nokia creating this MASSIVE problem? Choices, where is the choice everybody should HAVE with a 4inch screen!?
