Everyone who thinks that a big processor has higher speed is completely wrong..when all highest specifications can easily work in a 600mhz processor why built a 1ghz cpu....each ounce of increse in cpu leads to high in price of the device as cpu are very costly which are genereally hidden to consumers...that is the only reason the cost of Nokia n8 is lower than other higher range phones....
I would recommend a nokia n8 more than a apple i phone4...its like a dream to hold a 12 mega pixel camera mobile for so low cost...advantage goes to nokia this time along....

Finally Nokia is starting to make good phones again, A Capacitive touchscreen and a new / modified os makes all the difference

On topic of nokia N8's camera. Camera quality is a sum of several factors in general:
1. Sensor
2. Objective (lens, focal length, etc)
3. Image processing software
4. Build quality
If you really want to compare to iphones, it's not going to be much of a comparison. N8 is in a league of "camera phones", with high quality lens, extremely large sensor and powerful flash. Software is the only thing that can really fail the phone in this category, and the video they demonstrated of Rhianna's concert some time ago pretty much put that to rest. Even with all the spotlights, horrible contrast differences and other problems of shooting in a concert, camera performed admirably. It would probably need a proper camera to compare against where it would lose on objective and focal length horribly, but it's definitely in a different league from ANY phone I've used with a camera attached.
Considering that apple has never had a high quality camera on a phone (and latest offering doesn't really offer anything else then minor catch-up without really getting close), this isn't something you'd want to advertise on as an apple fan. You risk losing more then gaining.

And Quote Steve Jobs “The iPhone is the first phone with native video chat. ”
If we were living in 2002 it would have been. You mean to tell me Apple have had 3G & 3.5G modems all this time & have only just realized that they can do video calling. Btw, native video calling was possible since 2003, 2004 with any high end nokia etc... where have you been?

the new iphone 4 will be the next must have accesary..even if the n8 is better in terms of specs..or..even if the new samsung wave or galaxy has better specs than the iphone4, nokia ,samsung or any of the other brands cant compete with the apple marketing machine,,,this will be the biggest phone in the mobile world..( video calls over wifi only, i4 to i4 only,,give me a break )

Dani, 10 Jun 2010People think that it has a 12mp camera and its going to be ... moreMind explaining what does "EXTREMELY GOOD PIXELS" means.
Are you saying that the sensor used in the Ip4 is better? Do state what is the sensor size and the maker please.
Are you stating the mega pixel count? 5 is bigger than 12 you say.
But since you are naive enough to make a statement comparing the selection of CPUs for different OSes, maybe you are also referring to pixel count in the screen? Yes the Ip4 has larger pixel count but what would that have to do with the camera?
Just so you know, the 1Gz CPU is throttled down to 800Mz in the Ip4. Need help figuring out why?

Ok multitasking done better?
Hey sorry to break this to Mr Jobs but Symbian have been doinga fine & excellent job of Multitasking properly for 5 years. Now they take it to the next level with Visual multitasking. Symbian S60 v5 has done proper drop bar multi tasking way before apple 7& you know what - it works well & is ahead of apple again. Bogey
I actually see Apple has copied this frame for frame, pixel for pixel looking at their iphone 4 unveiling & by the looks of it thinks he can do it better, is he having a laugh, wheres he been to ...the moon. This guys OS is so far behind with the things it can't do. he has to add apps that enable it, rather than built into the very fabric of it's architecture as standard. lol Double bogey
Organization /Folder structures?
Again, where has Steve jobs & apples customers been for so long ...Symbian has done this long before apple & intelligent folder organization, structure & creation is not even remotely something new. Steve Jobs. Microsoft had it first, then symbian, then you, you might of added some intelligence or UI bliss, but I want to name my own folders, having some device name it for you. How lazy are apple customers. Managability IOS4 is going beyond by doing things without your approval or for you. Triple bogey
TFT is better than OLED?
Steve Jobs reckons the TFT LED screen is going to outperform OLED. Maybe the IPS might be better at motion. But contrast, definiton & colour he's very wrong. Comparitivly speaking if you had the same PPI, screen resolution TFT IPS vs OLED. OLED wins because hte pixels switch on off much quicker, fluid motion more so than TFT. What FPS does apples UI run at? S^3 60FPS. Epic fail

Anonymous, 10 Jun 2010Sad that lots of people already judge the n8 performance ... morePeople think that it has a 12mp camera and its going to be great.well that is where you are wrong.. iphone 4 has EXTREMELY GOOD PIXELS while comparing to 12mp and 5mp this is nothing. They just squashed in a bunch of pixils in this camera. which is not great. I am not aginsnt N8 or a big fanboy of apple. But i am telling the truth. personally i think both the phones are great but iphone 4 is a bit better as it has a 1Ghz processor coparing to N8 which is a bit laggy as shown in videos.

"If there is something good in the world, we copy with pride.” True to this quote, Nokia has demonstrated its willingness to copy Apple’s iPhone ideas.

Sad that lots of people already judge the n8 performance
just to remind you that n8 has largest camera sensor which is the most important feature in phone camera
you can do so much more with symbian 3 and some little small things that ios and roid cant offer
n8 is well designed and slim, i am in love with its looks
i wont pay double the price of n8 to get the iphone 4, i can buy two n8 instead of one iphone 4

Relatively weak CPU seems to be there for a reason - rather then have a one powerful "does it all" unit N8 appears to have a more PC-style "CPU+GPU" combination, meaning all heavy graphics will be done by a discreet chip relieving CPU for other tasks.
This does largely remove any need for powerful CPU in normal usage, as performance-wise the heaviest usage on a phone is graphics rendering for various games and interfaces, and in this regard a decent GPU will literally run in circles around the best CPU you could put into the same machine. Some recent benchmarking shows N8 OpenGL2.0 rendering to crush even tablets without discreet GPU units (talking about several times better performance here) and leaving phone competition competing in a completely different weight class.
We may see some real 3D games that look better then Quake1 on this phone running at 30+FPS if GPU is worth the hype.
