Microsoft announces acquisition of Nokia

US time on the evening of September 2, Microsoft announced the acquisition of Nokia equipment and services sector. This also marks the complete end of the Nokia era. Nokia had dominated the mobile phone market for 14 years, and since the rise of Apple's mobile phone in 2007, it has been on the decline. Xiao Bian today deliberately reviewed the history of Nokia's development for Nokia's previous users to miss.

Fifteen years ago: The legendary Nokia Nokia released the 2110 in 1994. This gave birth to the first GSM phone in Chinese history. Four years later, Nokia once again released the Nokia 6150, a mobile phone that can be loaded into the history of communications. It supports Chinese SMS input and is the first handset to support this feature in the domestic market. It is also a pioneer of the era. In 1998, Nokia introduced the 6110, built-in gluttonous snake, memory, and logic to guess three games. It is the world's first mobile phone with a built-in game. During this period, when everyone mentioned Nokia, the usual expression was: "Wow, Nokia!"

Ten years ago: The pioneer of the era In 1999, Nokia introduced the 7110. Since then, mobile phones can access the Internet through WAP (Wireless Internet Protocol). Although it took tens of seconds to connect to the network at the time, it was only possible to browse plain text WAP pages. Soil is a little bit of soil, but it can also be regarded as an enlightenment of the "mobile Internet era." In 2002, the Nokia 7650 was released. This is Nokia's first smartphone. Since then, the concept of mobile phone screen resolution, photographing, and multimedia messaging has become popular, and the mobile multimedia era has been opened up.

During this period, everyone mentioned Nokia, the usual expression: "Hey, Nokia!"

Eight years ago: The companions of mobile life In the following years, Nokia continued to innovate on mobile phone camera functions. In 2005, Nokia introduced the Nseries smartphone. The first model was the N70. This machine is known as a multimedia 3G smart phone and uses the Symbian operating system Series 60 second edition. During this period, Nokia’s popularity in the country has reached a new high and has been integrated into the lives of users. Therefore, when everyone mentions Nokia, the usual expression is: “My Nokia...”

Five Years Ago: The Lonely Walker of Trends This is Nokia's great turning point. In 2007, the Apple iPhone brought a touchscreen boom that swept the world. Nokia has launched its first touch of the Symbian S60 mobile phone, the 5800 XpressMusic, as a last resort.

Despite this, Nokia still has several classic arcades. In 2008, the Nokia E71 was a success and the E-series burst into flames. Its full keyboard design became a popular design at the time.

In the same year, the first Android smart phone was released, followed by many mobile phone manufacturers joining the camp. Nokia's obsession with independence led to the failure of subsequent fate. Mentioned at this time, users will regret for Nokia: "Hey, Nokia..."

Later, ah: Towards the fate of being acquired In 2010, Nokia lost ground in the offensive of Android and Apple. In 2011, there was a loss for the first time since 1996. Crucially, it chose to cooperate with its current host, Microsoft. In early 2011, Nokia turned to the Windows Phone smart phone platform and gradually terminated the development of its own Symbian platform. However, it was too late. Under the impact of Microsoft Windows Phone 8.0 and other events, the stock price fell all the way, creating favorable conditions for Microsoft to acquire it.
