Yep, Nokia is trustworthy because of their legacy and well built hardware. Had a basic S40 phone during my college days, the kind of abuse it took and survived is not something to forget. And then a second-hand N70. Used to piss of the smartphone owners by dropping the phone on the floor intentionally and then asking them to do the same whenever I was told "My phone can do anything your N70 does and much much more".

I had a Nokia 6630 ,(I mean I still have it , but its OS is obsolete.)
It was built like a Tank. I used to hit people with this phone in School days , haha.
One day it fell from Top of the building from my shirt-pocket. "The phone's body broke. Couldn't find a replacement easily.
Are you kidding, before ios or android came Symbian ruled the roost, the first file managers, custom roms, advanced apps, games that used onboard GPU, it was all symbian. Nokia led the way, then faded out because of stupid marketing decisions.
Compaed to Google(android) , I still think Nokia wasn't. / THough before Android came in , Symbian ruled the world. I was a big symbian fan (contributed in developmnent and translation of initial Chinese Symbian apps like TTpod and UCWeb , etc), but had to move on.
Owned almost every version of Symbian devices before Android.
Had Nokia N-Gage,
THen Nokia 6630 ,Nokia 3310, followed by N95 , and then C5 for a little while.
Stupid Marketing was definitely one of the major reasons for its downfall. No doubt.
