Wheez, 28 Sep 2010The problem isnt domination, the problem is battery life. N... morei agree with you.. i almost forgot that the higher the processing speed the more it consumes battery power. i am really impress with the battery life of my XM phone.

Anonymous, 28 Sep 2010how come Nokia still did not provide a 1Ghz processor phone... moreThe problem isnt domination, the problem is battery life. Nobody likes to have a dominating device that blacks out after 4-5 of idling.
It's not only about the CPU, N8s dedicated GPU and the 680mhz CPU are more than enough to be very even with the 1ghz phones with an integrated GPU.
Nokia could easily put both in to the phone, even the current CPU is underclocked, but they don't want to do that cos after being (and inventing)in the whole mobile phone business for some 40 years by now, they realize that a mobile PHONE is not a good PHONE if it can't hold it's power long enough.
I think this is their current mindset now and in future, they are making PHONES, not PDAs/laptops

Just look at the comments in that article. Eerybody thinks the author is a clown and that article is just baseless and stupid.
You don't even have to be a Nokia lover to find that article extremely stupid and unfair and underresearched.

Anonymous, 28 Sep 2010CAN YOU GUYS JUST STOP ABOUT THE USB OTG FEATURE!!!
I ha... moreand why are you upset about it?
I GUARANTEE YOU, I'll use it on the go daily with my little key chained flash memory.
oh I forgot the DVB-H handset, ready for watching TV ON-THE-GO?
or how about plugging WUSB adapter to connect USB devices wirelessly?
Connect> webcams, joysticks, remotes, MP3/4 watches, keyboards, mouses, huge-spaced hard drives, Digital Cameras, USB Printers etc...
so stop being here if you don't like it and go somewhere else.

how come Nokia still did not provide a 1Ghz processor phone compare to any other phones?? but i belive that this phone is a lot better and competitive compared to phones with higher processor...
Nokia will surely dominate if they can release a phone with the same specs as N8 but having a 1ghz processor and hardware accelerator...

Featurewise iOS and Android don't stand a chance to Symbian^3 and the N8. I give you that it isnt the fastest or prettiest, but it has functionality. The main reason the iOS is fast is cos its full of "sleight of hand"-effects and lacks features (The browser is fast and smooth due to no Flash as one of the reasons).
Also remember that we see ur IP so don't try to agree with yourself as another person. I'm not sure if you tried to do that but the 3 different messages with the same crap content would indicate that

So much hype and delay for this Nokia N8 which has OUTDATED specs and crappy OS? We are in the world of iOS and Android now. Nokia still hasn't released a phone with a 1Ghz CPU. RiM's tablet, BlackBerry Playbook, has more potential in sales than this phone. Nokia N8 will be another joke of a phone like the N97. Pricey too. Its camera with Xenon flash alone won't save itself from such a crappy OS, underpowered processor, lack of apps, and inflated price tag. Nokia screwed it up again as the only one sticking to Symbian. SE was smart to leave it. I repeat, don't buy this phone and just let Symbian die already. This phone isn't fast enough to compete with the iPhone 3G and 3GS for goodness sakes!

680 MHz processor????????????? I don't think this is fit for the many features of this device. y not make it 1GHz? My Nokia N97 with 434 MHz processor is always hanging!!!! Majority of the latest phone today has 1GHz processor.

Hey guys lets have a discussion. . .
Hey guys its been a while that i am reading bout all the comments here in gsmarena.com and specially the android vs symbian. Most of the people here keep on saying that they like the android OS than symbian but for me i choose symbian, you wanna know why because it is really a power saver unlike the android phones you will notice that android OS drains the battery like hell!!!!
so for all those who are planning to buy a phone and do not like a a phone that is poor in battery life i will recommend you to buy a phone with symbian OS specially this new product which is the N8. .
Cant wait to get my hands on this Phone!!!!
Sorry for my low level of english coz it is not my native language. (^_^)

Anonymous, 28 Sep 2010there should be input from manual keypad also.If you like real QWERTY keys , wait for E7.
But in my opinion , the feel of a solid mobile without moving parts is better to feel safe for it.
