Anonymous, 18 Oct 2010oh come on....i guess u r brain washed by nokia just like i... moreDid you just realized that all the phones u mentioned just now are all high-end phones (in the eyes of the company that makes them of course)? This is what I was trying to say in my post, people are expecting to much from the N8 and when they compare the n8 to a high-end phone such as the Galaxy S/Iphone4, they will start to feel disappointed and claim that the phone is a failure. But to me it is a nokia success cause despite its status as a higher middle-class phone, it is comparable to MOST high-end phones. If you dont like this phone then give it a pass and wait for a better phone, nobody is forcing u to buy 1.

        Know problems of the N8 so far and the solutions :

        1) Slow and laggy browser

        Use Opera mobile or wait for the new QT based browser.

        2) No portrait keyboard:

        Wait for and update or download swype from ovi store

        3) Blur images

        Remove the plastic film from the camera lens

        4)Phone freezing

        Update ur software or (if your a nokia hater) return ur phone and ask for a refund or (if you support nokia) ask for a new unit.

        5) Virus has attacked the phone

        Try and use a antivirus made for the s60v5, usually most s60v5 apps will work for the n8.

        6) No apps

        Oh come on! This phone is barely 1 month old. Cant you all wait?

        7)Phone freezes while using

        Hold the power button for 8 secs.

        8) HDMI cable too short

        Ask your nokia dealer for a longer one. Usually they will give it for free.

        9) U hate this phone so much that ur now posting crap on gsmarena forum

        Solution? Easy. GET LOST!

            The Nokia N8 is no doubt a good phone. But after handling and testing it, it fails to impress me. As a symbian^1 owner i expected a lot from N8 but the improvements are minimal and most are just eye-candy. Good for amateur photographers i guess.

                  snonre, 18 Oct 2010I think that this is wat is happening in ur brain right now... moreoh come on....i guess u r brain washed by nokia just like iphone fans.... cant u see with ur eyes n that same old excuse of not the final version n alot of n8 owners have observed the lag n also rebooting problems n its true as symbian is laggy n i dont wanna buy a mobile which keeps on irritating me with double touches n slowness n yes i agree with u that nokia n8 is not a high end mobile but alot of 6 months old mobiles r far far better than nokia n8....forget about htc desire hd....htc desire, xperia x10,nexus one,milestone r al better than this laggy shit.

                    [deleted post]I think that this is wat is happening in ur brain right now

                    N8 = symbian-----> LAGGY!!

                    If you actually tried a N8 in real life, u will find that it is way faster than what is shown on the video. And this video is clearly bias cause this n8 was not the final release version and the fellow always holds the N8 on his left hand in all of his comparison videos and he is clearly not a lefty. And stop pushing the n8 to compete with other high-end phones cause this is a higher middle-class phone and Nokia did not announced that the n8 was their flagship phone. Whats next? U guys gonna compare a 3310 with a iphone4/galaxy s/htc desire?

                          Been using the phone for sometime.
                          1)Browser needs to improve(now using Opera instead), portrait keyboard desperately needed.
                          2)Setup internet connections properly at settings>connectivity>settings>destinations to enjoy Wifi and 3g/edge seamless transitions.
                          3) The homescreens features and widgets are great.
                          4) Also saves more money in the long run if you know how to setup(email,voip,chat etc)... see point 2 to avoid operator billings.
                          5) Good features and good hardware.

                              Slower old ARM 11, hardly any RAM, a stupid file system and OS, no decent Apps, the N8, too little too late from Nokia.

                                Or you could simply press the on screen shutter to take pics.
                                Mine was blurred too... I forgot to take out the plastic sticker on the N8 lens

                                    i have been using this pone for 3 days.
                                    i am quite dissapointed.
                                    it has hanged and switched off automatically for more than 10 times.
                                    the camera is awesome...but performance wise, it lags whenever u open 4 applications at one time.
                                    i dont know if this is a bug or what, but i do hope nokia will issue a software update soon.
                                    mine is made in china.
                                    and im in malaysia.

                                        Guys, I just bought N8 with dissapointment.. The image is blurred..dunno why..in the shop I tried 3 N8 and its all the same blurred picture..but when the xenon in off mode it has a good picture. My friends also having the same problem with me.. Is all N8 products sold in Indonesia having the same problem too? Perhaps Nokia Indonesia imported the rejected phone
