Can you explain me how do Android phones compensate for the lack of USB OTG for example? It's a feature I very highly value. Theres no app that can make up for that.

Mark, 03 Oct 2010Dont give us numbers, thats bull, give me the actual factua... moreyes almost all of the stuffs the android mobiles i mentioned can do apart from maybe 1 or 2 n the mobiles are just much superior as a whole package....only advantage would be the 12 mp camera of nokia n8 but xperia x10 8.1 mp is also very good
so as a whole package those devices are superior to n8

Aww fawk, I lied! It doesn't give you the option of changing a default email client, but I'm sure there are/will come 3rd party email clients that support widgets and the full application.
Currently in the options you can change the following defaults:
Browser, Music player, Video player, Photo viewer.
Found at least one email client from OVI store already: http://store.ovi.com/content/39140?clickSource=search

Wheez, 03 Oct 2010Specs? You think that's what makes a phone?
Why do I nee... moremy friend its not only about specs
its about specs,software,graphics,speed,performance,easiness of the device n looks also count alot in todays smartphones. all the devices i mentioned are better than nokia n8 n if u use one after using n8 u will know that definitely
as far as the battery is concerned that problems have been solved by updates from different manufactures n also android 2.2 software
i would rather prefer a device which can use a spare battery rather than one(nokia n8) without it

[deleted post]LOL. Whatever you say I loved using N8.
After using horrible N97 I never expected N8 to hit back. I see BIG improvements in Symbian3 devices.

Anonymous, 03 Oct 2010so wht? if I have best, do i need a change?? safari is best... moreI never said you should change. As I've told you too many times by now, I've SEVERAL times suggested iPhone/Android phones to people asking which phone should they get, since the criteria they gave fit better to some other phone than N8.
People who read these forums actively can prove I've done that many times.

Why do I need a 1ghz CPU when all it would contribute to on the N8 is wasting battery. The N8 has a very powerful GPU which makes it very even to other current smartphones.
http://www.glbenchmark.com/com...C%20Evo%204G
I think you can see the power of N8s GPU pretty well there. The CPU is inferior and it shows in some areas, but overall I think those are pretty even, every device has an emphasis on slightly different thing.

Handle a single email account well
Have Swype text entry
Free navigation
Images taken at night that look good (typical bar images)
Some 3d games
Solid build quality
Use opera mobile
Connect to my AV equipment
Be able to use it as a mass storage device for all kinds of media and work files
Call
Text
Now, please explain, point by point, what those devices can do in the above areas that the N8 cannot. And no, I do not use Gmail, I connect to exchange.
Go ahead, make my day.

[deleted post]Good work Wheez. Keep it factual and to the point. Perhaps this has been asked already, but have you been able to use opera mobile as the default browser on the device? As in, weblinks in an email open Opera mini instead of the stock browser?
Thx
