N8 is old outdated phone. with old Symb. program, slow processor. Nokia is time to make a new looking phone and start looking at new Os and not stock for last 20 years with same Symb. OS. Look iPhone, android phones, new Blackberry OS 6.0. All better than this N8.

I used 15 years Nokia and then finally got tired and made a change one year ago to iPhone and android and I am very happy. Lost a lot of money to low quality Nokia phone with old OS.

        haha. too many wavers here. you're just too INSECURE!

        n8 is the best muttimedia phone!

        I had my samsung wave on my hands. it s way too long. even longer than n8. (n8- 113.5 vs wave-118) its hard to reach the buttons and the upper touchscreen. 3.3 touchscreen is very small. its more like a 3.2 touchscreen. wave has many useless spaces.

        Samsung has the worse one. Touchwiz. I had Htc hero. HtC sense is much better. Samsung DSne has not made any change. my samsung corby pro speaker sucks.

        N8's beefy 16 gb is very good compared to wave's 1.5 GB.

                            This is the last time i would post as regards hardware specs so i'll try to break the logic down so even the dumbest of hateful retards can understand.

                            When infrared technology was mastered and began appearing on portable devices, it was groundbreaking. A technological milestone. Today, infrared has found its way to virtually every electronic device. From tvs to laptops. Infrared was also used on mobile phones. Them bluetooth came along. Today, bluetooth has almost totally taken over as far as mobile phones are concerned but still, why don't we see bluetooth remote controls? There is one simple answer. Its not necessary. Are you then going to say that remote controls use outdated hardware?

                            When you go to a shop to buy say an alarm clock do you ask for hardware specifications? 'em, what type of processor does this one use? Whats the screen resolution?' what you're concerned with is 'how well does it perform? Whats the battery life. What options does it offer?'

                            When specsheets for mobile phones are published they are meant to give you an idea of how the device would perform. HOWEVER, IT IS COMPLETELY ILLOGICAL AND IRRATIONAL TO ESTIMATE PERFORMANCE OF A DEVICE USING A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GADGET AS CONTROL. The nokia 5730 has a 600mhz cpu while the nokia n73 has 368mhz. They both run the same os, have the same screen size and resolution. If and only if i were to assume that the 600mhz processor in the 5730 processes data faster than the n73 processor(which is not always the case. Higher frequency does not mean higher processing speed) would it then be rational for me to assume that the 5730 would perform better. However, since it is always true that higher processor frequencies mean higher power consumption, the 5730 would most definitely have a shorter battery life so long they use the same battery and no other counter measures have been undertaken. This is how to think. This is logic. This is common sense.

                            On the argument that a faster processor would make symbian faster or even more stable. I own a pc with a 3.2ghz processor and a laptop with a 2ghz processor. I installer pro evolution soccer 10 on both. The game doesn't play any faster on my pc than on my pc than on the laptop. Lionel messi cannot kick the ball any faster on my pc than on my laptop. Where then is the extra 1.2ghz? In the trash can! Burning away. Wasting power. Why do you thing laptop manufacturers don't put 3.2ghz processors in mainstream products? Because they don't need them! That symbian lags is not a problem of underpowering but rather one of the os itself. SYMBIAN AS I KNOW IT WASN'T ORIGINALLY BUILT FOR SPEED BUT FOR FUNCTIONALITY. Its like your pc. How many seconds does it take the average windows pc to start up microsoft word? 10? 20? How about the gallery? Yahoo messenger? In symbian, os components like gallery, phonebook and messages are simply applications. When needed, they have to be started up hence the 1-2 second delay and the less hardware requirements.

                            My nokia n95 8gb has 128mb ram. At bootup, i have about 85mb free. After surfing for about an hour with 6 windows open, one of which is on the tariff unfriendly full featured youtube, and 4 other less ram hungry apps in the background, i have 66mb of ram left. I go on the open 27 more apps including nokia maps, ngage and lifeblog before the phone hangs and restarts itself. I'm still unsuccessful till date in my quest to encounter a memory full error. Thats 128mb of ram without ram cacheing, application suspend or hibernate. What more 256 with ram cacheing?

                            That nokia won't be using symbian on anymore nseries devices doesn't mean symbian is incapable or bad. The reason is simple. The times have changed! Gone are the days when only business men and rational individuals with real needs buy expensive phones. Nowadays, even the dumbest of people spend huge amounts of money to buy worthless pieces of crap. The iphone, ipad and other ishit are living testimony. Nseries devices are meant to be the devices from which nokia earns its highest returns. Built for the stupidly rich a majority of whom are unconcerned about functionality hence the need for meego. I, for one can't imagine myself buying a meego device. Ask why? Because it majors on looks rather than functionality. Symbian would be bearing the flag for nokia on their eseries devices. The series for right minded rational thinkers.

                            If i were to switch from symbian today (which is completely impossible) guess what platform it would be to? Not android. Not meego. Not bada and definitely not ios. Windows mobile. Why? Because its the only other platform that has its priorities straight(blackberry os doesn't qualify. Its too narrow). Functionality over form.

Those bottom bars greatly increase functionality but not as much as they ensure familiarity with the os. Its screen estate put to good use.

                                  Nokia never promised to ship a meego device this year. They promised to announce one. S^4 has not being delayed.

                                  Nokia doesn't have the resources to compete in the 'highend' segment as its known today. Highend means stupidly overprised, flashy, fanciful and comparably useless.(see iphone 4). Taking there in mind, Symbian is not a highend os. Not today. Symbian is designed with efficiency and productivity at core. Its optimized to run on the cheapest of hardware. Thats where meego comes in. The os is what nokia lacks to compete in the highend segment. Android is no go.

Manufactures counter power consumption in their designs. That a phone uses samoled doesn't mean its battery life would be better than one that doesn't so all that statistics is pure bragging rights. Nothing more
