Dear all, I've been reading all the previous posts and one thing bothers me "cpu clock rate, ram size etc...etc...." I mean what is the benifit of having quad core processor or 1gb ram if you cann't use them. N8 with lower clock rate and lower ram is still the best. It never hangs, it never lags so what else you guys want? I think processors are made for only one work "processing the information". So a single core processor does the same work quad core or dual core do. How much power of phone you can use? Will you open dozons of apps and use them? No. We we can do is we open 4-5 apps and use them. So this can be done with lower clockrate and ram. N8 does it like a charm. Symbian is optimized for lower hardware. It can run smoothely over 400 mhz cpu and 128 mb ram and it will never disappoint you. Other os even can't dream about that.
So as for me, hardware configuration is not a big deal. The big deal is an os which can utilize every inch of hardware which Symbian can do, not android or ios. I only need better performance, no matter how it comes.
I am not saying that having dual core or quad core phones is a bad thing. Just go and grab what suits your needs. Choose by your own mind, not by others.

You can make your browser faster though, by disabeling java script, but will not load videos with this setting. I use original browser when i'm out of wlan network and opera when i'm on wlan. Original browser with java script disabled is faster the opera.

After using it for 2 days now i have to say i'm really impressed 1.3Ghz & 512Mb ram really improved performance is should have been done ages ago since N8 time, Symbian requires little power but its helps it big time. Apart from low res screen (Not massive problem) it very good quality display best i've seen on mobile. now the camera WOW WOW I've had the N8 I was amazed now this takes it to next step so good better then my Sony camera which has Carl Ziess you will not be disappointed so go for it i left m razr i android so not disappointed

Latest tests i made, and turned good as apps, games or themes.
Starting with apps
Belle Extra Buttons - superior app
qooCalendar widget - it is way better then original calendar widget
fring - tested for 2 weeks now. Videocalling for free:P Working great, even with low internet signal
Facinate- well done facebook app. has about all you need
lanternsoft apphider - hide useless apps from your menu. Works quite great
some new games i like:
mr.karoshi. Nice crazy game:)
Monsterit: at first i had doubts, but it is really a nice game. Made me drain my battery 2 times in a raw:))
They Need To Be Fed: another crazy game, in my phone hangs when i close it and i need to wait like 20 seconds until it closes properly. If i don't wait, and i press some buttons will make my phone hang to. But, no problem, i can wait 20 seconds at the end:)
Plants vs. Zombies by EA Games: It is java but is quite well done:D.
Just 2 themes i have, sorry:
LUCiDO Orange by adelino
Tangled Reborn by IND190
Give them a try, if you like, support the developers.

My experience and comment is a Symbian power user. When I say Nokia no longer supports Symbian, can see it in how progressed Nokia Beta Labs page. Anyone who has used Symbian for years, knows what I'm talking about. The 808 is a phone with an excellent camera. If you've already purchased, enjoy it. But if not, my suggestion is to not buy it.

eduardo09, 26 Feb 2013Hi, I´ve got a 808 (my last phone was a N8), and real... moredear, 5 years ago, when android and ios were just babies and were learning how to walk, symbian was dominating the smartphone world. Symbian is the real father of all mobile os and Nokia is real grand-father of smartphones. No one knew about smartphones until Nokia's nevigator hit the market. Whenever there is the battle of being best, only one name stands-Nokia. I don't know about the view of you people for samsung or sony but for me, all this android and samsung hype is because people can't think with their own mind. The think-"oh my God, that white phone is lookinp hot in his hand, how good will look in mine?" I mean what is the benefit of having a so called sexy smartphone when even you do not know about "s" of smartphone. If you do not know how to use, then any resource would be only a waste, no matter how precious that resource is.
5 years ago, no manufacturer other than Nokia could dare to make smartphones. It is Nokia who dare to be different and always keep itself out of herd so its customers do.
