Volume question/answer:
The speaker volume can be adjusted when in use by pressing the "left and right" arrow keys. Same goes when on earpiece/speaker etc. Hope that makes sense.

Why you being silly and running for a MP camera, tell me how many times you use a camera in phone still with a 2MP cam-phone you can't take a professional level picture. I don't know why people wants all junks in a phone set??? If you can't afford it then don't try to make any useless reasons and pretend it.

8800/BMW
I had my new car delivered to the Hospital today. It looks great and drives even better! The aftermarket companmy in Santa Monica did a great job on making the docking station for the 8800 look like it was factory BMW. I can raise and lower the screen with no difficulty.
I had a quick stop in Beverly Hills and was able to get the Noika in and out with no problem. Because I had keep the top down, I used the locking feature - perfect! The 645 and the 8800 have a great deal in common. They are both masterpieces!
By the way, I picked up my shoulder harness and ankle sleeve for the 8800 a few days ago. Becasue of the phone's weight I can't recommend the ankle harness. But the shoulder holster is fantastic!!!

U know mate the time of converging the useless stuff is ending in a cell phone, I was found to have multiple features in a single device but after using my Qtek S100 I'm very much disappointed with its performance at all so I think NOKIA still rocks and 8800 is a flagship in the cell phone industry ;-)
Coz the battery life is always critical to the electric gadgets but if you start using cell phone for other –ve purposes then the battery drain like hell so at the end of the day then again you even won’t be able receive a single call, so what’s the point of having all useless stuff in a phone, phone should be just to make calls. If I want to carry music with me then I won’t mind to buy an iPod nano ;-)
So far whatever the cell phone you buy but still you can’t take any kind of professional pictures (cam lens with 5.1+ MP) not even with N90 coz you simple don’t have a proper digital zoom as you have in digital cams and all other features to make a picture perfect. NOKIA really done very well on 8800 coz you can see no one done this kind of job but if you still think 8800 is useless then plz go and get a plastic piece of phone, get it hurry & don’t get late.

Lee.
My remarks are negative because in my opinion the phone is not good. Why would I give positive remarks if there is nothing positive to say about it?
Im a Nokia fan but stil I do give the SE W800
positive feedback because it is good. But unfortunately the 8800 is not good enough to
recieve any positive feedback from me.

got this phone after a lengthy delay..
first impressions.. i love it..was a bit skeptical about the look from the online pictures thought my old 8910i looked better, but in real life this phone looks awesome.. battery life was poor on the first charge, however gave 8hr+ charges on the second and third charges and the battery lasts a lot longer. my biggest concern is dust at the moment as my 8910i used to live in my pocket in no case and would come out dusty . i have already noticed some dust in joints, but any phone that lives in your pocket is prone to this. I use the suede like case that it comes with in my pocket. so far it hasnt been to annoying gettin it out of it when the phone rings but time will tell i suppose. It also cleans the fingerprints off it at the same time.my 8910i i used to take to nokia care centre to get a clean and the slider contacts cleaned once every year or so..so will prob do it with this phone. The volume of the speaker in the headset should be louder..cannot see where to increase this in the menu options. bluetooth quality in nokia carkit is great, would reccommend you use nokia approved carkits as have found other non nokia phones that synch with the nokia carkit have an echo. disapointed that the custom ringtones by Ryuicho sakamoto are not full length...only go for around 20 seconds. those people who have heard it love the tones..

the 8800 is one of the most highly antisipated releases by nokia for 2005 little hope is now held up the release of the N series. the 8800 is all looks no features. little common sence was put into the the development of the moving parts in the phone leaving small gaps the the casing for dust and all sorts of stuff to get into the phone. congratulations Nokia this phone will be sure to cause a few customer complaints.

Pointless & Overpriced. Looks Good Though. Better off with 6680 or n90/n91 despite the size the functionality is superior.
Take it from people in the business

Hey Rune - I went through your past posts... all negative. It's no wonder you're down on anyone who likes the 8800.
I think the Nokia 8800 is awesome. And hey man, if Ty's posts bug you don't read them - I think he's got it together. I just wish I had some of his bread!

designed for the senses; yes. but one of those is common sense. if you can't work out how to slide up the phone, well...
the battery compartment isn't too easy to get to but it never takes me more than 15 seconds to open it up. this is, though, a phone of compeltely solid construction, and you can tell that by looking at it, from a distance and close up.
this phone won't be everyone's cup of tea, but to me this is my cup of tea, biscuits and cake.

After seeing the advertisement i thought i should use this phone,but the phone is an absolute disaster.I think nokia has seriously tried in making a slider phone but have failed.If you open the battery cover it will take hours to fix it.You will need to search for an hour to find out how to slide up the phone.Only the steel case loks good but is not very attractve.Is it designed for senses??Not worth the money. Samsung and and to an extent panasonic have made good slider phones.

Forgot to add - no more expensive phones for the little one. Between the one destroyed in her backpack and the subsitute 8800 that I sent her to school with (and that she gave away), I have learned my lesson. No more expensive phones until she's older. Thise of you that are parents may want to heed my warning.
