[deleted post]Will you please, for the love of anything that is good in this world, stop spreading lies, educate yourself and stop playing tricks on the good readers of this website?
It seems GSMArena is the last bastion of fairness & objectivity.

680 Mhz CPU wouldnt suffice, they'd have to add it up to 1ghz that would eat the battery to such extents that they couldnt physically and/or battery lifes sake be able to run the current GPU. Also Android can't use the GPU to render UI at the moment so it would probably just be replaced with a crap integrated GPU. Then, just by changing to Android we would probably sacrifice 40% of the battery life, just cos we changed the OS. In return we would get some eyecandy and overall a good OS, but such that still has problems that need ironing out, moreso than the Symbian^3. It's getting better with each new version of Android, but theres still lots of work to be done to be where Symbian is.
Currently Android most likely can't support stuff like USB OTG, so that would have to be programmed in, which probably wont be made until the next bigger version (and 2.2 isnt even widely available really yet)
So no, it would not be better with Android. Iäm absolutely loving the Symbian^3, it's very good. It's not that pretty, but its good.

Dwane, 05 Oct 2010Wheez I don't know if you saw my question last night before... moreNo I didnt see it. Cant try either cos i lost the data cable for my E65 and it doesnt use micro usb. Even if that wouldnt work theres an application in this phone exactly for that that leta u sync the nokia phones if/when u change. Didnt try it though, didnt have anything but numbers that i wanted to change and those are on SIM

[deleted post]For each of those rigged and biased reviews there are like 2 pages dedicated to prove em wrong and 2 youtube video answers proving them wrong
Only a complete idiot will believe any of those camera comparisons (Gizmodo, engadget, mobile-review)

MarveL, 05 Oct 2010Somebody told me that Nokia N8 does not have stereo speaker... moreYes, but it has a mono speaker which i read somewhere to be described as better than the 5800 stereo speakers which btw are undoubtably one of the best there ever was on anything that can fit into a pocket. But ofcourse its still mono. It may be clearer and louder but won't half as much depth.

As for Nokia being left to dust, bullshit. Just look at how popular this phone is here alone. It will be total success, and even if failed on Nokias standards, it would still exceed every sales figure of any HTC phone

Anonymous, 05 Oct 2010The processor had to be atleast 800mhz if not 1ghz but 680 ... moreThe phone is fast and doesnt lag or hang, me and many other finns who have already recieved theirs are very happy.
If you don't believe me, check this site to see benchmarks how it compares to other top phones. Seems very even but each phone has different emphasis on something
