Leaked screenshots show Nokia Carla OS
Share:
Based on the images, it appears that there is a new on-screen QWERTY keyboard that is very Windows-esque, if you will. The lock screen losses the unlock button in favor of a swipe to unlock method. The Nokia Browser has been updated to a new version with some UI improvements. Finally, the UI of the Music player and the Options screen also received facelifts. Interestingly, the new Options screen appears to be reminiscent of the Meego Harmattan interface.

Very Ugly, compared to ICS and iOS5 and WP7...
Nokia why did you choose Windows phone instead of Android ?

Probably because Nokia wanted a beautiful OS to match their beautiful devices like the Lumia.

If this is an update to WP7/7.5/whatever, doesn't even Nokia need to get the update from MS? They can't go out and do their own update; what about OS fragmentation?

it's an update to symbian devices not windows ones and part of nokia's deal with microsoft is that they can change the UI if they want which they decided not too and nokia can send updates to any of they're own devices they only take major updates of MS like tango updates that will change the intire OS for example OS
anyway this update has nothing to do with microsoft

It is interesting and looks neat. Brings hope to Symbian fans. I hope it comes to older S^3 devices. I'd like to keep my N8 for a bit longer.
BUT
What is Nokia doing anyway? Symbian, S40, MeeGo and Windows Phone 7? Removing s**tty "Ovi" and bringing back the word "Nokia" was a step forward, but making soooo many operating systems is going back to the same confusing state. Now people will be confused, since only a handful of people who actually follow up every Nokia news know what's what.
Go Symbian and Windows Phone ONLY, but not ALL of them.

you should know that meeGO is been killed the N9 was nokia's first and last meeGO device and honestly had a better UI than symbian s40 is been running since 1997or 8 i think and symbian is only supported by nokia untill 2016 at the moment so nokia is onlyworking with s40, symbian, wp7
s40 is just at's not a smart one so it doesn't need a lot of work i think nokia is on the right track at the moment

That radioactive android background is cool. If Nokia would run android they would have been the manufacturer with the best android UI.

Damn I hate Nokia .
It's been 2 years now since u bought my n97 and it is s**t .
I think a flagship (although a stop gap model) deserves more update and it shouldbe updated to Anna , belle , whatever .
