I've just bought my Nokia N8 on Sunday. N8 was almost out-of-stock here in the Philippines. I was lucky to find 2 stores that sold a unit each, one orange, the other green. Lime Green N8 was not my choice of color when I was just planning to buy. But when I saw it in the actual, my jaw dropped in awe. It was so beautiful and elegant. I immediately bought it. I'm so happy I've made the right decision on buying a Lime Green N8. Not only it's such a sight to behold and hold, I presume my unit is also not included with those which are defective. I've been using and testing extremely my phone for 3 days now. No freezing, no restarting whatsoever. Very satisfied with my purchase of the Lime Green N8.

              cai, 04 Jan 2011My N8 gives me the following error when I try to watch .mpg... moreThe N8 does not support .mpg 1 or 11 playback. In fact I don't know of any phone that does. The N8 will playback DivX XviD MP4 H.264 H.263 WMV and MKV files. You may use a free software called Super to convert multiple file formats into a format that the N8 can play.

                v57, 04 Jan 2011N8 Firmware Leaks - Packs exciting stuff N8 users all over... morewhere did you get this information from? If this is correct then it would be a wonderful to get it.

                A few more things required are:

                1 - playlist to be viewed sorted by folders on memory and not by artists.

                2 - scrolling go typed messages and email. When i have typed a long email or message or as i am typing this post scrolling up to the top of it is difficult.

                3 - There are problems with predictive txt, the options i get are not proper. I get the first character go caps after a space.

                4 - the software is still not optimised for touch screen use, e.g. like here where i am typing txt i have to press 'correct sign' button and then press send again. That can be done away with.

                5 - There are for sure some bugs and the phone slows down, stuck sometime. Even though its rare it does happen.

                6 - There is a need to overclock the processor, this thing is for sure slow for some features.

                7 - some problem with flash and so pictures taken inside house have a white hint all over.

                The phone is one of the best i have ever seen. I shifted from blackberry other then the superior email experience i dont miss anything from my past phones.

                Absolutely recommended.

                Hope my concerns are read by some one in Nokia and taken care of.

                Enjoy. Even if this model doesnt sell 10 or 14 million, all actual users know that this is a good product and if bought Will never be disappointed.

                  David891, 04 Jan 2011Hi N8 Lover S I see you used to have a N85, just like me. ... moreI still have the N85 & N8. To tell you the truth, I've copied all my music in my N8 & I love listening them there. Consider you are playing your music in your N85 in full volume, make it 150% louder & very clear, that's how your N8 will sound in loud speaker. Hope that will help you.
                  Keep N8-ing.

                      My N8 gives me the following error when I try to watch .mpg files that are stored in the memory card:

                      "Unable to open file. File type not supported."

                      Is there a program that I need to load?

                      Thank you.

                          Riddle Nixon, 04 Jan 2011I want some suggestion from u frnds... I have chosen NOKIA ... moreThe n8 destroys the satio in just about everything. The n8 camera is faster better and moddable and shoot in 720p. It has a better screen and its media abilities are better than the satio.

                            N8 Firmware Leaks - Packs exciting stuff
                            N8 users all over the world are expecting a firmware upgrade to their device which is bound to come this month. Here is a list of some important upgrades which the firmware will bring to N8

                            1. "Flickable" homescreen, akin to the iOS and Android platforms, which moves along with touch instead of following after the transition is complete. This has been a major ire of the consumers and reviewers alike and will be welcomed by all users.
                            2. The browser has received a lot of flak in the past owing to its slow rendering performance and lack of several features, including multi-tab browsing and a clean user interface. Most of these concerns will be met in the new browser with a single address bar that will includes search as well. The address bar has been moved to the top of the screen. It is also possible to see the browser while typing text, this is one feature which all users would like to see implemented throughout the UI. The address bar also seems to have copy-paste integrated. Also, the browser now automatically moves to the browser window instead of the bookmarks tab.
                            3. new portrait QWERTY keyboard
                            4. New menu
                            5. 4 Page Homescreen
                            6. Processor overclocked to 752Mhz.

                                    Sumit, 04 Jan 2011Hi all , can anybody tell me that NOKIA N8 battery is detac... moreWhy or why do they just not google or bing, but in the light of good humour I and I alone will answer the question I thought everbody knew the answer to.

                                    Hi Sumit you just tell the Nokia N8 battery that it not detachable when you don't want it detached and attachable when you want it attached. I'm sure it will respect your wishes.
                                    THE QUESTION I WANT TO ASK IS IS IT THE MATING SEASON FOR N8 BATTERIES? I mean one inside and some N8 battery wanting.... ok calm down..

                                    "Hi all , can anybody tell me that NOKIA N8 battery is detachable or not"
