As of 25 April 2014 , Microsoft officially takes over Nokia 's mobile phone business , including 25,000 employees in 50 countries and Nokia patent portfolio license .

This phone is basically only used for calling and texting only. And there are two very popular games on mobile phones , one of which is a snake game Snake .
However, if asked most popular smartphones today, he said the iPhone 5S . According to Phone Arena , analysts estimate that more than 100 million iPhone 5S sold and that figure is expected to continue to grow . So do not be surprised if the iPhone 5S someday surpass sales of the Nokia 1100.
The second most popular smartphone is not yet known because the data are not exact , but allegedly the Samsung Galaxy S3 . In mid-2013 , the smartphone is claimed nearly 50 million units sold .
The turning point occurred in 2008 Nokia after Apple launched the iPhone 3G . Shortly after that , the Nokia Symbian operating system that was originally used in the Samsung and Sony Ericsson devices begin to lose fangs , not only because of the presence of iOS but also Android .
