It is the last chance for Nokia. If they don't get it right and make another cheap looking, poorly built phone full of bugs like their last phones, other phone makers will jump ahead, and even Nokia fans will be fed up and buy other brands. Wait and see...

After some time of eye candy ness people will realize how good the ui of symbian^3 is. Sure it dont have eye candy ness but its easy to use and you can do your most of the tasks direct from home screen..

Too bad it is Symbian. Old OS, not designed for touchscreen even if they try to improve it. Nokia reacted too late because they did not believe in touchscreens and did not had time to make a new OS. Better use something made from scratch like Android or now even Bada.

Nokia will release more new gadget in few months. Just wait and see if Nokia can give N8 like device in just 370 euro then what will they give in 500 euros.. Trolling and trolling from you. Have you check the N97 mini..? Though it have not much special but for a normal person which dont mind eye candy N97mini is great device. With new firmware N97 (main) is also "not bad at all" but not to good. Tell me what thing N8 dont have in 370 euros..?

So Now my dear Niraj, this has been the case since last 2 years. Nokia has always been slow and behind its competitors and thats why they lost a huge market share last year...If you say N8 will be the best gadget when its available, I can only say LETS HOPE SO. But its so sad as Nokia has always have faithfull consumers like you and still they have not achieved what they should have in past few years.

[deleted post]Today today today no Nokia can have same specs like Vivaz and Satio but Tomorrow Tomorrow No phone can beat N8 except samsung ( only due to Super Amoled). Even in future if others will bring 15 mp do you think they can beat N8. No because they will still choose small sensor. And for your kind information all these vivaz, satio and omnia hd are not so famous but N8 will be. Do you know why..? Because Nokia has released N8 on right time. Nokia was first to bring 28 mm wide optics on phone and then others has copied them. And the optical trackpad you are saying was brought by htc first. And this type of technology was already used on optical mouse.
If you want a n8 type phone today go for some other phone. No one is preventing you to buy them..

If symbian^3 os fails to impress then they will loose the grip in mobil market. Nokia products are best interms of battery life but they are still immature in finger friendly touch ui, look at the ui s of se, samsung and htc....looks nice and feels good....afterall first impression is best know....in symbian any screens are not customizable....you have to improve nokia.

Rajesh, 02 Jun 2010Recently E72 was launched about 5 months delay and it ultim... moreYes the N97 was a miss hit for Nokia. I did look forward to it and although I did not buy it myself, did recommend it for a friend (and I do feel guilty about that). I am not insulting the current users of N97 who are happy with the devices but just pointing out for the price it was launched with, it came with a lot of issues that the users had to put up with until the recent updates. In-fact, now for the price (originally it sold at about RM 2450, now its dropped to RM16++) and its updated software, I think its a pretty good qwerty/touchscreen hybrid device.
Am I completely confident the N8 will be the best, maybe but I really can't tell for obvious reasons. But since my last Nokia, N95 this is the first device (and I do mean among all makers) that seems to tick all the boxes for me and at the end of the day, that is what is important for me.

First both ... moreAgain you came back to same question, can Satio and Vivaz beat N8...my dear, did you sleep well...you are asking if a 9 months old gadget can compete with Nokia N8 which is a future gadget and who knows when it will be launched...lets assume N8 will be available in June ( which I doubt )...I want to ask you can any Nokia gadget which was introduced in past 9 months compete with Satio or Vivaz head to head in specs??? N900 has a mere 5 mpx camera...thats already 3 year old technology...where are your brains???

But recently I do notice that's not the case with their products (X6 was launched barely 2 months after its announcement). And you must admit the unfortunate leak of the N8 by the Eldar fella forced them to announce it early.
