In the Speedy Go! tests, the N8 clearly outpaced the Omnia HD and the N97; it is 54% and 180% faster than the other 2.

Anonymous, 15 Aug 2010let me know wahat better hardware u see in htc desire,samsu... moreFirst, the Nexus and the Desire are basically the same in Hardware, you just need to choose the OS. I prefer the Nexus since you get updated first on the firmwares and you can customize the OS to get similar results to the Sense UI. If you root your Nexus, you can switch between Sense UI and just Regular 2.2.
I have the nexus and just purchased the Samsung Vibrant so I'm excited to see the difference.
But overall, when the N8 is released I will switch to this device full time. I love Symbian only because I don't use much apps, its simple, and I love the battery life on Nokia devices. My Nexus might last a full day on heavy usage. Lets just hope we don't have a disappointment like the Nokia N97, THE WORST PHONE EVER!!!!

Nokia are annoying loads of people waiting for the N8 to be Released,it just shows that they know the N8 is not as good as Expecting are worried about releasing the N8,an the name of Nokia getting Slagged down again an Out Beaten by the other manufactors,it seems so odd that a Top Mobile Producer can still not Compete in the Top Smartphone market an can only produce good Budget Mobiles,they have used Symbian for ages an never improved the software until the Apple an Android software as become available,they have got to shake up the strategy at Nokia,as they always take ages to compete in the different mobile markets nowdays an always everything so Slow at Nokia

Kierann, 15 Aug 2010I think the problem, from what we've seen in preview videos... moreThough I hate to admit it, I have to agree with you. With the price tag of EURO 450-500, it will have a hard time against the likes of HTC Desire, Samsung Galaxy S and Google's Nexus One.
For the same price tag or maybe less, we can get better overall hardware along with more intuitive and exciting UI. The only thing we will be compromising is the camera. But to be honest, if you want to get this phone for shooting purpose, why not go for DSLR instead. For the same price tag (EURO 450-500), we can get a Nikon D5000 or Canon 550D which features better sensor plus better HD video formats. Plus you still have all those interchangeable lenses.
Seriously, Nokia needs to revise it's price tag if they really want to make N8 a big hit. They should really control the price of N8 and maintain it under EURO 400. That way it will definitely be a huge hit as it is more affordable and it will definitely stand out when compared to the other smartphones from the same price range.
Just my two cents.

I think the problem, from what we've seen in preview videos of the N8, is the new version of Symbian doesn't actually add anything brand new and exciting. Android OS had the both the app market and the Open Source at launch programming. This meant that many phone manufacturers could make an excellent overlay UI on top of it (Such as Sense and Later Touchwiz) which is what makes it stand out.
iPhone OS, while I hate it royally, had a ridiculously easy to use system thats both intuitive, smooth and very very pretty. It also has the advantages of a massive app market.
Personally, from previews, this new version of symbian is what Symbian S60.v5 SHOULD have been. They are playing catch up to Android, iPhone and Blackberry systems without adding anything new. Now that would be fine if this phone were something like £300 because it would undercut the rivals, give a reason to buy it. Don't get me wrong, I love symbian but its outdated and feature devoid. This new version makes it more usable, and maybe prettier but doesnt really change the lack of features. Since this phone is set to be £450-£500 by some accounts, I really think this is going to struggle when pitted against the likes of the HTC Desire, Samsung Galaxy S etc.

Yeah those are great key features but it's still better to wait for users opinion before you decide. :)

the only main disadvantages of n8 are:
-poor battery life
-non removable battery
-no camera lens cover
-no video light
I'm from Philippines too. I currently own X6. really waiting for N8. I believe this is not like the n97. I assure you. 46kprice is horrible. Its very different from the promised 370 eus!

trust me, the phone will only cost you PhP22-23Thou when it comes out in the Philippines and not PhP46Thou.
where did you get that hilarious price info? by the way it will available by the last week of Sept of October 1st week, though some stores with backdoor contacts with Nokia China might start selling the phone as early as Sept 2nd week. Braise yourself! ;)
