Shame on Stephen Elop, who literally pushed the company into downfall to fulfill his own personal agenda. He wanted to become CEO of Microsoft, well he didn't became one and that is the reason why ethics and professional standards holds a very imp position. Nokia would have still been the greatest company. Imagine meego greeting ota updates in 2021 with Nokia's own flagship hardware.

For anyone who still wants to experience Meego, it continued development with the team who worked on the N9 when they started their own phone company, Jolla. They made their own phone with similar interface called Sailfish OS, have since released one other phone with Intex but are now limited to running on pretty much just Sony devices. Sailfish OS is still being updated and developed, and can also run Android apps!

I have been following Jolla and sailfish, but I still think the UX of Meego harmattan is much easier to use and live with. Sailfish is unique but can be a bit too overwhelming to people who pick it up for the first time.

A really poetic review that appreciates the beauty and inspiration behind the project. It really does stand the test of time and agreed breaks my heart that we never saw further. I had the n900 and loved it's ancestor. Looking back I can see the loss of the keyboard and stylus as a logical move particularly when you see everything out here now, but at the time really struggled to see the benefit as I had really got used to my portable linux pda with full OS. I really would like to be in the universe where Meego and Nokia soared past android and Ios taking nokia to the present day creating more things of this kind of beauty.

I'm glad you could see how passionate I was about MeeGo and the N9. Truly my biggest tech regret is not seeing MeeGo being further developed by nokia. I covered the Nokia N900 in another video. I loved that phone for its own set of different reasons. We were lucky to have experienced Maemo and MeeGo, 2 very different concepts that are both unique in their own ways.

The swipe gesture is the feature that kinda mind-blown for me at that time. I didn't own one but I remember the feeling when I touch the demo unit in local retail store like "WTF smooth & easy AF !!" I hope Nokia don't bring back legendary N9 instead re-release a high end version with latest SoC, never update MeeGo OS and a removable battery in limited quantity campaign. Curious is still worth buying in 2020 ? Can the MeeGo OS still able to update to its latest version ?

I had an N8 (still have and still works) and when the N9 came out I was in love with the design that Nokia did. The idea of new OS was also great since I love new and experimental stuff but where Nokia and later on Microsoft failed was to anticipate how important was to have developers work on ypur devices and...make apps. An area where iphone and android where ahead. What the N9 started, MS and windows phone could have made into a true champion of os and hardware...could being the key word.

@@AbdullaZaki Nokia pureview series. But little bit expensive. And their latest budget segment phones are not good for the price nowadays. So will wait and grab one in budget segment. But I think Nokia 5.1 plus will go for another year I hope.

Actually MeeGo had a successor: Sailfish OS. The same team that developed Maemo And MeeGo left Nokia and founded Jolla. Sadly they only released one phone model, simply called Jolla in 2013. There were plans to release a tablet and a second phone but, due to financial difficulties they never could release any physical device. Today they offer Sailfish OS as a licenced software for Sony Xperia phones and other. And because it has open source license, there have been ports for other devices also. Sailfish OS inherited all the functions found in MeeGo and was a breeze to use. They still release software updates to this day for the Jolla phone.

Nokia even produced a feature phone with a similar look OS called Asha Platform. That was my favourite feature phone OS. The Asha 501 was the one I had.

Meego was also behind the inspiration of all the later Symbian updates like Anna and Belle. But it was much better than anything running Symbian when it comes to user experience.

stupid decision to chose Windows Phone over develop Meego, thx to Stephen Elop (former Microsoft executive-before CEO Nokia). Back then people were still searching best OS smartphone and Nokia had strong finance to make it's own OS.

Hindsight is 20/20. At the time, partnering (and receiving $250mil) with an established player, i.e. Microsoft, was a much more lucrative option than developing your own platform from the ground up. MeeGo simply came out too late at that point, and Windows Phone was a much better better bet. Of course, we all know now that MS ended up mismanaging their mobile OS, bringing the Lumia down with it.

I owned (still have) the N900, N9 and Jolla phone from back in the day, and boy do I miss using them. There are still things that modern Android cannot do that these phones had like true systemwide multi tasking, why is it still so fragmented? Or simple things like double tap on the screen to wake? The after so long the muscel memory is still very real, somethimes I still find myself swiping from the edge of the screen to go back into my last app.

Feel kinda guilty now because i really had quite a collision what to choose - n9 or one of the first Lumias. And this was so crazy and mind-blowing that i feared to take it and chose Lumia. Still liked my Lumia 800 and 1020, still regret WP failure (it was such a shame when Lumias were released by Microsoft, not Nokia), still believe 1020 was my best phone (having iPhone and Android now), but this n9 was a masterpiece. Thx for your review!

Agree with many of the sentiments in this video regarding the N9. Never has their been another phone for me blended hardware and software so perfectly and it was just a pure pleasure to use. The hardware feels amazing in the hand and MeeGo like the video states just begs to be used for no reason whatsoever just to experience the beauty of the swipe based gesture UI. The only other dead mobile OS for me saddens me today as much as MeeGo is webOS but the Palm Pre hardware only wishes it was as good as the N9.
