For a quick look at what Belle has to offer, read on. Homescreen and lockscreen - The Symbian Belle update offers a refreshed homescreen which is quite Android-ish. Unlike Symbian Anna , where widgets are rigid and not too flexible in terms of placement, Belle provides different sized widgets that are quite free flowing i.
Another feature that caught our eye is the position of the widgets that are independent. This means that the position of the widgets in landscape mode and portrait mode are remembered separately. The lockscreen has been modded with new lock design and now has wallpaper support. It takes the wallpaper of that homescreen in which phone was locked as its background. User-Interface and Menu - One of the most noticeable features that Belle offers is a totally revamped User-interface. There are two bars, one at the top and the other at the bottom.
The operator name, battery indicator, network indicator, time and other connectivity related indicators get fit in the top bar. The bottom bar consists of an arrow symbolizing back button along with different sets of options and shortcuts that vary in homescreen, menu and apps system apps as well as third party apps. Now all apps get listed on the menu page by default. Please follow the link below to see N8 with belle in action.
It is also worth noting that low speced Android phones are not that smooth in operations,and Symbian belle phones in the same price range can beat them easily. Power consumption:. This is where Symbian belle beats Android hands down. As Android needs more processing power to run the OS smoothly. It takes big toll on battery level of the device. We have heard a lot about how android users need to carry chargers with them,and charge it twice sometimes thrice in a day.
Symbian always had true multitasking,with Belle it goes one step ahead and becomes live multitasking with live app tiles!! Android still only supports only a fixed number of apps while multitasking,and freezes others. Android interface Now some areas where Android is still better than Symbian belle ,. Screen resolution:. I checked the applications by visiting Nokia.
I would be really obliged if someone answer the above as i have to buy a phone on SOS, the current phone has lot of problems, thx jayant. This has no connection to Android again wew.. Very fast accurate and snappy O Android is the best Flashed my N8 with Belle, i just have to say that its a beast!
Very fast accurate and snappy OS way better than Android and with half the cpu needed, honestly is as fast and responsive as Ios but with all the goodies that no other OS can give unless is Symbian! Now I know why Elop didnt wanted the Belle to hit the road it makes W7 unnecessary only Meego can compare! Im honestly in love again more than ever with my N8! I mean, talking about updates, this is rea OVI Store had so many apps missing and now developers are moving away the eastern market though seems to be still strong Going from iphone to the N8 seemed like a mistake at first, as everything just wasn't THERE to access from the off, but I got used to it.
