Most reviewers are stupid and as readers we should be more careful ourselves.

I always know GSMArena is always objective, unbiased in their review. Can't wait to read your review. Praise for it pluses, critic for it's lack/flaw

sickofNokiabuyers!!, 04 Oct 2010ooooooo boo whooooo. Poor GSMARENA has to come in and stick... moreGreatest number of pre-orders ever for a Nokia phone. Most feature rich phone there is. A camera that has the image quality of a good point and shoot camera. And ordinary users are now giving N8 great reviews. And it will fail to sell?! You are delusional.

I find this true:
It is harder to be nice than it is to be mean.
There are so many Nokia "haters" out there.

GSMArena is right here. But it's even worse than they say. The bias against Nokia is just irrational. The "reviews" are full of negativity and lack objectivity and professionalism. There so obvious double standards used when rating the phones. What is a plus for iPhone is nothing or a minus when it's in N8.
If N8 can do some thing but maybe not perfectly it is getting bashed for it. But if iPhone can't even do the thing at all, it's not getting a minus or bashing for it. It is not required to have that feature. And N8 is certainly not getting a plus for having it as it should.
Little things are blown out of proportion with N8 but not with other phones. Personal preferences in design are affecting the rating. The UI is made to look like it's useless and not functional when in fact it works perfectly fine and has many features that others lack. Eye candy is made somehow the most important thing in a smartphone when it has very little if anything to do with what makes a good smartphone. Eye candy isn't making a phone perform or function better. In fact it can be the opposite as it can use unnecessarily the CPU and the battery.
Many great features in N8 are just ignored. Like USB OTG or the fact that navigation is free or that you can change the UI looks with themes. Or that it plays mkv video files and it has Dolby Digital in it which no other phone has. Or that it has a FM transmitter. Or that it can use the apps of the older Symbians and java apps. Or that it has 2 connectors where it gets power, USB and 2.0mm Charger Connector, allowing you to use for example external USB hard drive while getting power to the phone from the 2 mm connector. Or that it has a very handy lock switch.

ooooooo boo whooooo. Poor GSMARENA has to come in and stick up for their fanboys... Get over it. Other sites have completed their reviews, and may have been skewed (dear we say) similar to how your reviews are when a nokia handset is up against other handsets.
N8 will fail as much as N97 in store, however with people now not so blindsighted, then hopefully it wont sell as many and we people in store wont have to deal with all the returns!!

For a "dead" OS it's strange how anything Symbian seems to generate more comments than any other OS, and anything Nokia produces debates that go in the hundreds, while many cannot even break 50.

Gizmodo is run by Apple fanboys. Of course they will make Nokia look bad. Enough said. By the way I am not a Nokia supporter but I believe in fair comparison. I'm with you on this GSMArena.

if n8 fails, nokia should abandon symbian and use android or windows in order to survive.

Anonymous, 04 Oct 2010guys watch the video fr this post. n8 is indeed slow
Please stop bashing on N8
I don't understand why u hate it so much even tough you never use it before..
I now iPhone is good on terms of app qty, games, and UI, but not every people have same needs with you
I'm sure a lot of people would appreciate extra feature N8 offers like free navigation, good camera, USB OTG, FM transmitter, etc etc...
So just enjoy your iPhone and stop bashing N8.
