        why nokia called smartphone?like nokia n8?is not smartphone because is symbian os base and processor very low. n8 only ordinary phone like n97,x6,n86. nokia pls stop saying ur units are smartphone. do some unit windows powerd,android b4 u said nokia smartphone. im sorry to all nokia lovers ds phone is not smartphone ok. ds is not cmpter bsed to called smartphne. the only phone called smartphone is windows powered,android,ios not “symbian os”. samsung,htc,iphne good smartphne ever seen. worldwide. not nokia symbian OS.

            eze, 01 Aug 2010i think you work for samsung dude. i use skyfire browser o... moreWhere I work is not the point here. The point is that it does not do that in Samsung Wave and Galaxy. It's about the User Experience. I would want my phone to pinch zoom out without any checkerboard boxes appearing. Fast browsing is something that has to be there by default. So rather not discuss that.

            It does that in your 5800 and it is doing that in the Nokia N8 as well basically points towards the Symbian OS not being effective enough in controlling the capacitive pinch zoom out smoothly.

            Everything else in the Nokia N8 seems to be just fine. And I absolutely love it. Thanks.

                Samuel, 01 Aug 2010SAD NEWS for NOKIA N8..!! Just checked with Nokia. Ther... morei think you work for samsung dude.
                i use skyfire browser on my 5800 (best browser for 5800) and it does the same thing when you zoom out, its not a problem as long as my browsing is fast.
                now you can look for something else thats wrong with the n8 :)

                  SAD NEWS for NOKIA N8..!! Just checked with Nokia.

                  There is one real big problem with Nokia N8 which the developers cannot seem to fix and will not be able to do it seems. Watch the video below at the (5:15) minute

                  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBLwcBHusVY

                  The checkerboard pattern during pinch zoom out cannot be fixed. This problem is not there in Samsung Galaxy and Samsung Wave.

                            samsung now is keeping updating softwares and widgets regulary at samsung app store.
                            and it will update bada os to bada 2.0 at the end of the year and in between there will be minor update.
                            little secret:when bada faced memory issue it restarted itsself in 40 sec,without the need for removing the battery unlike symbian that will not respond only to removing the battery.

                              Anonymous, 31 Jul 2010why cant you hold until unbiased reviewes from third party ... moreYeah I am doing that. :)

                              I just thought nokia may have released another sample without any background music added. Especially, since I read a few people who were confidently saying that its really good. :)

                                    Hey guys.

                                    I read here that since N8 has a dual mic, it has a really good audio capture when recording the video.

                                    But isnt that theoretical ? Because the Video sample in the link below (where the guy in blue is dancing) has background music added to it ??

                                    Any Samples that showcase the audio capture too ? Thanks

                                        Yeah... Tru Dolby DTS 5.1
                                        Not the Dolby mobile you find in phones today... It's gonna redifine the way we use phones for entertainment.
