        iphone 4 will pose a tough competition for this.

        it still built on old hardwares and is late too.

          Anonymous, 08 Jun 2010i understand that the os makes a huge difference. a general... morewell hopefully the final firmware version of the phone or a sooner update would use the 780Mhz the ARM1176 processor has. for some dumb reason Nokia declocks the phone's processor upon release, like the 5800 @ only 300+mhz and after the v21 update they put it to the proper 434Mhz of the ARM1136.

            Well I disagree with that., you want a camera then buy Panasonic DMC-FX70 or Samsung NX5 or Sony Alpha 290 DSLR., not so good OS of this phone., which it has high OS and RAM then this will be a real monster phone like Samsung Galaxy S

                BRAND NAME, 08 Jun 2010Ooowww an what do have here., another monster phone from no... moreThe reason it is famous are because it has the best camera compared to all HTC phone.

                It also is the first device to run on Symbian^3.

                The over all build is using great material that u cannot find on any of HTC phone.

                The look (design) also not bad :)

                Yea.. partly is because it is from Nokia.
                Because Nokia provide the best customer support after sales. :)

                    mothman, 08 Jun 2010sorry sir..its about the operating software.symbian^3,read ... morei understand that the os makes a huge difference. a general analogy would be putting a great race driver in a mediocre car and competing against the top... i like this phone quite much. The least i want to see is a lagging sluggish device that would have had a huge potential. Just think nokia should not afford such position when this is supposed to be kind of a come back. and you know that's what the end consumer would judge against. By end of august competitors will be announcing 1.2GHZ processors with 1G RAM. go compete against that... my two cents for what they are worth. nice talk tho..

                          specs on site must be wrong! There's no way that this pone has ARM 11 compatible processor!
                          It must have TI's OMAP 3000 series based on Cortex-A8 core!!

                          The pone is beautiful, it would be grate to have this kind of Android device!

                            mothman, 08 Jun 2010plz read carefully....sir.u will get ur answerim reading quite carefully. still no indication how 256 RAM would suffice in real life. There is a real life performance and marketing description of a product. Why would every other leading OS phone go up for 512? Plus its like a dual core vs pentium... i guess they both will run your computer.... the question is how well. Android is a pretty capable linux based os and again they go for 512..

                              What is Amoled screen/display ?

                              in GENERAL
                              AMOLED display is a new and
                              advanced display which is being
                              used by companies like Samsung, LG,
                              etc. in their mobile phones,
                              notebook, and LCD TV displays.
                              AMOLED means (Active-matrix
                              organic light-emitting diode) display
                              consists of OLED pixels that have
                              been deposited or integrated onto a
                              thin film transistor (TFT). Amoled
                              screens are ultra thin, ultra bright
                              and doesn’t require a backlight to
                              work.
                              An amoled display consumes less
                              power and offers a high refresh rate
                              with superior image quality. They
                              are flexible and unbreakable in
                              nature.

                                  data performance - ideal for

The RAM I think is def low. it will have to handle 12 MP images, plus up to 48GB of combined storage.... that's a lot of computing... Plus all the updates that hopefully will be coming up...

                                        virtually every portable device now
                                        uses USB for PC connectivity. As

                                        popularity, there is a growing need
                                        for them to communicate both with
                                        USB peripherals and directly with
