Вот тут Tomi Ahonen снова рвет покровы:

Цитата:
So we get two new Lumia smartphones by Nokia that run Windows Phone 8 (the four older Lumia models are now totally obsoleted, 'Osborned' in fact, as they are not compatible and cannot be upgraded from Windows Phone 7.5 to 8.0). Understand what it means. It does not mean that Nokia has now expanded from 4 to 6 Lumia models - where we might think Nokia grows sales say from 4 million last quarter to 6 million soon. No. Rather, Nokia has regressed from 4 to 2 marketable Lumia models. This cannot help Nokia grow, this is likely to produce a Nokia sales regression, dimishing versus this year Q2 when Nokia managed 4 million total Lumia sales (vs other Nokia smartphones of over 6 million, vs Blackberry sales of 8 million, HTC sales of 9 million, iPhone sales of 26 million and Samsung smartphone sales of 50 million in the same Q2. 18 months ago, before this Windows strategy was announced, Nokia had seen dramatically growing smartphone sales powered by Symbian, that produced 28 million sales per quarter).
...
Compared to the Lumia 900 from this year, the new Lumia 920 does move up many aspects and seems a big upgrade. But just compared to the two other top phones sold this year by Nokia, the 808 Pureview on Symbian and last year's N9 on MeeGo, the newest Lumia 920 only matches many aspects and falls short on many more (memory of 64GB, microSD support, camera resolution of 41mp, real Xenon flash, video out).
...
Good thing we still have Symbian (and MeeGo) and Nokia can still sell some other smartphones. But I do think Nokia's Christmas quarter 2012 smartphone market share will be between 2% and 3% when counting all smartphone operating systems, Symbian, Windows and MeeGo, combined. This unit will be ridiculously unprofitble at this level of collapse and obviously, more profit warnings will come, as will - unfortunately - ever more layoffs by Nokia management as it attempts to adjust to the continuously collapsing sales.
...
Then we have yet another bizarre statistic just out this week from Nokia. They said that Nokia had sold a cumulative 7 million Lumia smartphones since launch last year. That might on the very surface of it seem like a nice number, until you understand this. We know from previous Nokia statements that it sold 600K in Q4 of last year, 2M in Q1, and then 4M in Q2. That means only 400,000 total units sold of Lumia in the first two months of Q3 !!!!
The statement is official Nokia, and cumulative to this week, ie end of August. Since 6.6 million Lumia were sold by the end of Q2 of 2012, that means that since the Osborning of the Lumia series by Microsoft, the Lumia sales have truly collapsed and are at near-nothing level. We did hear that carriers have pulled Lumia from the shelves, Europe's T-Mobile Germany for example cancelled its Lumia 900 launch altogether and stores such as Walmart have the Lumia 900 in discount bins selling for 0.97 dollars (yes, 97 cents) with contract.
