Symbian ^ 4 screenshots published on the Symbian dev wiki :
As you can see, the desktop has noticeably changed. A status bar appeared at the top, and below is a quick access menu for frequently used functions and elements. The interface has been redesigned and adapted for touch devices, and when you click anywhere on the desktop a pop-up window with options appears.
Symbian ^ 4 is expected to be released at the end of this or early 2011. It will definitely be used on Nokia devices, but it is expected that it will be used by Samsung, Sony Ericsson and other manufacturers.
