    I think browsing this gives you a good idea of why Nokia failed. they really thought they had it all figured out and it was now time to lay back and just try out random shit.

    they would never have the same kind of focus or philosophy as Apple, nor the willpower to pivot to real smartphones and a proper OS for them

      You mean like Apple today ?

      The Apple watch is from 2015.

      What new product Apple produced since Tim Cook took over ?

      The iPhone Duo ? Ironically it has quite a smell of Nokia N95 all over again.

        Airpod is the most successful bluetooth headphone ever.

        Apple watch is also on the list.
