    Duel, 09 Dec 2010So i think your last phone was nokia too, right? I'm quite ... moreyep 5230 and N900

    5230 lagged alittle cause of all the crap i had on it and the transitions are always turned off for me they are unneeded
    but other then that they where ok but

    from my 5230 to my n8

    my n8 is blazing fast without the transition effects and more RAM

I'm quite sure if you are nokia user you dont see and notice that kind of things that clearly, (i also didnt noticed that nokia phones was that slow and sticky i thought it's the level where it can be but when i tryed something else i noticed i was wrong) but if you had used something else, the difference is there and you noticed it many situations.

      for example i meant things like, lot of emails in inbox and scrolling getting sticky. I think the laggy was wrong word, i meant using N8 is sticky compared other hi end phones.

              symbian doesn't need alot of ram and clockspeed to run

              680mhz with alot of ram which is has now runs just as fast as a 1ghz with 512mb RAM or just alittle slow but it's still really fast"

              I disagree, i did a lot of testing N8 at weekend and have to say it definately need more speed, it was pain to use compared to other hi end phones, they just worked so fluid and effortlessly. When i tryed N8 i got frustrated and angry not fun to use, browser was laggy even mobile sites was laggy, picture editor was laggy, video editing was laggy, many games was laggy, facebook was laggy, email app was laggy i dont continue anymore. Then we have coverflow which is very fluid, i would expect same performance everywhere. Some parts of N8 works fast and some not. I cant go back to that level because i got used to use phone which is always smooth and fast.

              After testing N8 i tested galaxy s, which has a new OS for me and i havent tryed it, first time i touched the screen the difference was huge, it was very easy to use and it worked nice and fluid and it was a new experience for me but it worked right away.

              So i would say the guy who asked about speed, if you want phone which is ALWAYS smooth and fast pick iPhone compared to N8.

              and then there is WP7, freaking fast and smooth too :D

                  vijay, 08 Dec 2010thanks jim78 but how is the speed compare to iphon? i thing... moreHere is another questionable dialogue. With the introduction of well you tell me "some one told me toucj of iphone is uncomparable" & "that ipnoe has mastery in music and status wise is also nice" also "i m still confuzed my friend...suggest some better feature than iphone in N8...." er!!1

                  These 2 phone only similarity is that if you enter a valid telephone number and press call you actually can speak to somebody if they check out that ringing noise. This post is not dissing jim78, but please vijay one or the other iphone4 or N8 come on now.

                  jim78 says nokia N8 but he is extremely biased
                  i mean after all N8 (wow) impartial view on my part.
                  Or heres a suggestion get BOTH , then all the unquantifiable descriptions GSMARENA did not against my advice include in its feature. COME ON GSMREANA HOW DOES THE PHONE ACTUALLY FEEL? ET AL.
                  I seriously wonder in some of the posters actually wear clothes. "i don't know what to wear again naked wednesday. Listen it not about having the best phone in the world its about having a phone that does everything you want it to do. Can i live with the features on this phone or are my needs best served by that phone.

                  you're taking advice from everybody methinks the phone is just a status sysmbol to you rather than a device for calling emergency services in say an emergency.

                  So are your needs best served by the Iphone4 or the N8
                  if you vijay had to make a decision what would it be ?
                  no googling no bing.
                  Me personally I would advise BOTH , get the touch the feel of then you can decide in two years, which one I should have bought & meant it.

                  I know already what features e.g. 1) my phone must have a card slot, LAST 4 YEARS CARD ALWAYS HAS BEEN. SO I WOULD BE IGNORING MY OWN ADVICE AND JUST OPTING FOR THE N8

                  regards

                      Iphone adv:-
                      1. uncomparable UI - android is still not that good (atleast i feel so)
                      2. music quality is really good
                      3. screen is mind blowing


                      N8 adv:-
                      1. uncomparable camera
                      2. OTG support - you can hook up a pen drive to it
                      3. hdmi + 5.1 dolby digital support for driving external displays
                      4. free navigation - without gprs
                      5. true multi-tasking

                              N8 has just 256 MB Ram.. gives memory full errors quite often!

                              furthermore, many people have reported bug in it! Even nokia itself has confirmed that this cellphone has hardware related bugs!

The phone displays the pics slightly smaller though on the phone were as the 9mp setting displays across the entire screen. The difference is when you display the pics on a pc. 12mp is awesome. The detail when you zoom in is incredible. I've taken plenty pics with this phone and it has just impressed me in every picture. 9mp as i said was suffice for me at work cos the pics are too large on the 12mp setting for the documents i put them into. Still at 9mp the pics are big but i just compress them to decrease the doc size. For my personal pics 12mp is a must.
