Love the phone, despite its issues. So, pros and cons:
- I am a DSLR/advanced compact camera user and I have to admit that N8 camera is above any expectations
- Symbian: my girlfriend has an iPhone 4 and I had the chance to compare the two phones. I like symbian more (still: expecting some updates)
- connecting PC to net with N8 - instant, no settings required
- multitasking - really, does the iPhone do that? becouse N8 does it the right way
- social app: it just doesn't work, needs an update
- I set Opera as default browser, but it still open the nokia one...
- problems to sync contacts with PC Ovi app, but not ota with ovi services
- last but not least: is an excellent phone and this is what I wanted; if I wanted a multimedia device, I would have used an iPad

i only used my N8 for a week and it was no longer working; as much as N8 phones are in demand please take time to look for faulty phones before their given to customers.

prit, 28 Dec 2010i purchased n8 3 days ago, the only problem i am facing is,... moreUnfortunately you cant completely deactivate your auto screen lock in Symbian^3 for the moment. Symbian^1 had an option "Auto Key Lock" in phone management but S^3 don't have it. What all you can do is configure your auto screen/key lock period to 30 min and the screen timeout to 1min.

Red rectangle means the auto focus is disabled in your shooting condition. When you have the scene mode set to auto and focus a far wall, it switches the mode to landscape so no auto focus. Try focusing at an object that is more than a feet far from you. you should get the auto focus. The closes distance of approach for macro-mode is 10cm due to the wide angle lens.Nokia are employing a smart focus, that your camera decides to choose between auto focus and fixed focus according to the condition. But you shouldn't get blurry images in any of them.

Since I ve bought N8-
1) for the 1st time having bad experience with nokia

3)I ve missed many classes for this (really sad)
4) always facing torture 4m my family
5) wasting too much time on it
6) wasted 24 k and so much frustrated !
7) wasnt with me on christmas and no signs of having it on 31st dec.
Nokia care really sucks

[deleted post]He meant a fully customisable equalizer where by you could customise each and every db reading, which the n8 does not have. easily fixed with a firmware update if nokia chooses to.

I have downloaded many applications, games, photo etc. from OVI store through wifi connection. I do not know how to download through other connection like LAN etc. Because, if I do not have wifi/3G/GPRS connection but I am having very fast LAN, am I able to download from OVI store by connecting N8 to Notebook through OVI suit?
Thanks.
