This is my Next's Vlad Savov reviews the Nokia N9, "one of the most fascinating phones of the last few years." Beautifully designed and toting a linux-based operating system that can actually scroll smoothly, it is a dead end thanks to Nokia's decision to switch to Windows Phone. The Nokia appstore is "Chernobyl" and the phone itself "flawed and doomed", Savov writes, but he still likes it: "the N9 has delivered on Nokia's promises of 2010. It's just a shame that the Nokia of 2011 didn't believe in itself enough to see them through."
Nokia N9 is beautiful, flawed, doomed
