Nokia 2 Tablet: The Win8 tablet concept with a name that speaks volumes

There was once a very attractive concept design for a tablet computer called the "Nokia 1 Tablet". It was in December 2011, when the stunning Lumia 800 had inspired a series of related conceptual designs. Nokia's collaboration with Microsoft seemed so sweet from an outsider's perspective.

Half a year later, author Jonas-Daehnert brought the follow-up to the Nokia 1 Tablet, named "Nokia 2 Tablet." "After 1 comes 2," but now this "2" seems so ironic. With just one sentence - "All Windows Phone 7s cannot be upgraded to Windows Phone 8" - Microsoft dealt Nokia a heavy blow, turning the Lumia series into a complete "joke." Fans of Nokia and Microsoft defected, and whenever they were free, they would criticize Nokia.

Internet joke: "Nokia was beaten down by Android and Apple, so it called Microsoft for help. Finally, Microsoft came driving a car, but drove right over Nokia. Apple laughed on the side! Google called 911! Seeing this, Microsoft said: No need to bother with the ambulance, let me reverse!"

Enough with the criticism. Naturally, Nokia has its own development strategy; there's no need for us to worry unnecessarily. There are no regret pills in this world. Let's take a look at this Nokia 2 Tablet concept design, a Win8 tablet. The design is pretty good, I wonder if Nokia can "enjoy" it or not.
