pooper, 01 Aug 2010just saw another videos of the n8. And its symbian^3 is so ... morenokia is really playing catch-up in the smartphone/touchscreen market. if i'm not mistaken, their first touchscreen phone was the 5800, which came out almost 2 years after the iphone. they were quite slow to enter the market, perhaps feeling that touchscreens were just a fad that would eventually pass. obviously they were wrong, and now they are paying for that. the reason why symbian doesnt quite compare to the likes of android and ios is because it simply wasn't initially designed for touchscreen. i think some people forget that. nokia have now realised that and have decided to develop meego for high end touch devices (a good move imo).

The latest preproduction firmware have nice transition effects in auto rotation. I saw it in some videos but can't find link. You tube is now flooded by N8 videos even before launch!

[deleted post]You mean to say if Nokia use 1ghz processor on s40 than it will also called smartphone?? Lol what a childish post...
Okay Symbian^3 is not smartphone OS but it is a mini computer OS , because it supports usb otg ( harddrive upto 1.5tb, even many computer cant support) and bluetooth mouse/keyboard just like a Computer.. Happy.. Go to your nearest shop and ask a lollypop lol..

just saw another videos of the n8. And its symbian^3 is so ridiculously slow. I mean browsing to the next homescreen takes a noticeable amount of time. It takes 1 second to switch to the next homescreen! Touches didn't register a few times. Many times there was noticeable lag after a touch before the n8 responded.
This is not a fluid OS like android and ios. How can people still defend the n8?
And how can this be possible? Nokia is so long in the smartphone business and in 2010 they still cant produce fluid, fast os while other OSes are just new in this business? So unfortunate because the n8 has the best hardware out of all the phones on the market. The most allrounded phone.

smartphone user, 01 Aug 2010why nokia called smartphone?like nokia n8?is not smartphone... moreApparently you do not know what is Smart phone definition.
I suggest you google about it first before posting.
N8 is definitely a smart phone.
Symbian is definitely the most matured smart phone OS in the market.
You are just being a noob or simply ignorant.

The Wave , 01 Aug 2010Wave has no memory issue..at least I have not faced one..
... moreI don't know about you.
But i did a test in Samsung flagship store for only 10 minutes by opening around 6 apps then the memory full error occurred and i cannot even close the application.
So It DOES really have memory full error.
Btw, we are not interested in WAVE anymore.
Can you please post at the WAVE forum instead. Thanks

[deleted post]Is this the best that you can do?
Doesn't matter cause in a few hours or less times your post will also get deleted anyway. And no ones will know what you have said cause its totally pointless.
Just like Wave can never beat N8. :)

Samuel, 01 Aug 2010Check out the Pinch to Zoom browsing capability of Galaxy. ... moreHow Can you compare a market available device with a device with a device which running on beta firmware?? And even though you want N8 to be better in all aspect than a device which is more costier than N8..?
Why dont you blame Galaxy S for not having led flash, for poor signal quality, cheap plastic build, no gorilla glass display, no fm transmitter, no usb otg, no hdmi, poor sound recording on video, feeble loud speaker etc etc?? But you will never say this, you know N8 is better than all these aspects.. As for user experience , I have x6. And I find it quite good. Though it have only 128mb Ram but I have only face memory full issue when I was running so mann contents on background, including Symbian web browser and Opera mobile which are most ram hungry applications on symbian..

Anonymous, 31 Jul 2010Hey guys.
I read here that since N8 has a dual mic, it h... morehi there...
You probably didn't watched my links on camera + video carefully (may skipped part 2)...
http://conversations.nokia.com/2010/07/09/nokia-n8-camera-2260-days-in-the-making-part-22/
ok let me clarify....
Do you know that n900 has dual mic i.e. one mic on the both sides of the phone??
ok here is an audio sample of n900
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nmk0trhO8hk&feature=related
in replies to posts about video Damian Dinning (n8 camera architect)told that
"It’s a combination of the mics AND the new algorithms which make the sound as good as it is"
moreover when another user compared with n900 he told n8 is even better!!!!!!
And by the way, why else on the earth there is another mic hidden beside the carl zeis lens???
