    I agree. No one uses their phones with brightness on a full level when indoors. I dont use it on full even outdoors. I bought a wave and the brightness is set to 1, and is perfectly visible under direct sunlight.

    And if you know anything about AMOLED technology, then you would also know how notorious it is for poor sunlight legibility.

    Plus, N8 may or may not out do Wave/Galaxy. But if you were somehow insinuating that N8 has either a better display, or better resolution than either of them, then it is not even worth arguing against.

    And you'd do yourself good if you read about the gpu used in Wave before holding comparisons. :) :)

    Note : I am not derogating N8 in anyway, I am just politely pointing out the mistakes when Wave is being derogated.

        Anonymous, 05 Aug 2010Okay. I am not trolling, just correcting what you said, may... more1.) Audio
        I never said WAVE audio is lousy or not as good.
        I said "It (N8) should" do better.
        Do you understand the term "It should"???
        I never confirm it.

        2.) Video :
        I totally agree that WAVE have better display.
        But its the fact that the different is not that big when comparing to AMOLED display.
        Well you can just post a video in youtube to show how big the different is.

        Video Camera wise, I lazy to post here.
        You can personally go to facebook and add this fella call "Nokia N8". He have bunch of videos sample.
        You can check them out there.

        Please check your facts before suggesting to other people man :) Peace !!
        I do and I will be peaceful if you read my post, digest it thoroughly before posting. Peace to you too. :)

              Which statement did i made to have convinced you that i have NEVER tested it?

              I never say i have tested N8 in tel-co shop.
              But is that mean i never tested it from any other location?

              Think again! :)

                  1.) Audio

                  And I quote GsmArena's review :-

                  Audio output spells perfection

                  We did expect the Samsung S8500 Wave to perform well in our traditional audio quality test but the resulst turned close to perfection. Not only is the Bada-pioneer one of the loudest handsets in terms of headphones volume, it is also among the ones with the cleanest output. The Nokia N91 is the only handset that we have ever measured to be noticably louder than the Wave, but it didn't perform as well across the board.

                  The frequency response is perfect for the entire audible range and deviation is impossible to detect even in lab conditions. The signal-to-noise ratio is also excellent and so are the dynamic range and the stereo crosstalk.

                  The distortions are also neatly kept and the decision to pronounce the S8500 Wave the perfect portable audio player couldn't be much easier than this really.

                  2.) Video : Mate, believe me, Super Amoled is nothing like the regular Amoled. Either See some videos showing HD videos playing on wave. Or google and you will find out that the color saturation is better than the Famed Retina display by Apple.


                  Your point with the camera may turn out to be true ( It most probably is but there are not any samples of Nokia N8 recording baring 1)

                  Please check your facts before suggesting to other people man :) Peace !!

You can watch movies on your home cinema. That's a great feature, but you shouldn't compare it with samsung's proprietary DNSe (Digital Natural Sound engine).

                      I am seeing many people are spreading lie here. Most of people who are bashing N8 due to 680mhz and 256mb ram well know that symbian^3 supports virtual memory plus it works most on gpu rather than cpu. In gpu benchmark N8's gpu easily outdoes any other phone. Many people also crying for old nHD res on N8 and praising Galaxy S for 800x480 res. I guess they either dont know or trying to deny the truth that actual res on Galaxy S is 392x653 and its on 4''. Many people also crying about Super Amoled. They are also denying the fact is no one use their phone with full brightness in indoor. Even my X6 is so bright in indoor, it really hurt my eyes. For outdoors you should know that N8 has extra reflective layer with Gorilla glass display, which will give sunlight legibilily. Regarding the battery please see 12 hours talktime and 50 hours of music playback time..

                              I choose Innov8 over N97 two years ago.
                              But N97 is not an android phone.
                              Read my statement again. I am saying Moto's android phone is the lousiest android phone.
                              Not the lousiest of all the phone.

                              The statement is so simple yet you cannot understand?

                              But never mind. I only care for N8.

                                  Yea, WAVE S-AMOLED is better than N8 AMOLED. But not much different.

                                  N8 definitely have better camera for still photo taking and video recording.
                                  It also have better sound recording with its dual mic.
