    rb, 16 May 2010hey guys need some help. wont this ph be havin sybion o^3 ... moreThe new OS will be faster and will have much more eye candy so complete with the New Androids and RIMs

    Many regard this phone as the second incarnation of the popular 5800 (And the voting results show this). Therefore Nokia will probably sell this at a very competitive price too, just like the 5800.

    All previous Symbian apps should work, and better too because of the graphic processor. Therefore, DIVX can be run using Smart Movie, WMV using the WMV (RUN) Player just like all previous Nokia's.

    Perhaps Core-player will work on this too, thanks to the Hardware acceleration.

      ramin, 16 May 2010i dont like this phone because OLD arm 11 cpu and regular 2... moreThen it won't be a Nokia, would it. Why don't they just go on and slap a Sony Ericsson badge on it too.

      In fact, it does not run the usual Symbian OS. This new on may look similar but has one big improvement along with many small one. The old Symbian was quite good but lacked speed and this new OS has been designed to fix just that.

      Bugs on Nokia's are quickly fixed by firmware updates so you need it worry about them.

            i dont like this phone because OLD arm 11 cpu and regular 256 mb of ram also OLD Nokia UI and symbian OS that is full of bugs
            but camera&video&HDMI port of this phone is really impressive
            if it had snapdragon cpu and at least 384 mb of tam and android OS and better UI then it would be a perfect phone

                Wow, "new" Symbian looks exactly the same as the sh***y old one! Contemporary Nokia = Fail.

                      i think the success of this model will depend on user friendliness which already one big issue with N97 as the keyboard is either hard to work with or hard to use (no need talk about the lousy camera performance)...

                      tis one r without any physical keyboard, hopefully is working or else, u just end up with another "digital camera" or something then not sure about that again.

                              regs, 16 May 2010Scorpions - saying it's a largest sensor i suppose you know... moreQuoted focal length of the lens, 5.4mm – as printed on the device itself.
                              Effective focal length, 28mm – as flaunted in the marketing materials.

                              So let’s divide the effective focal length over the quoted one and we get something along
                              5.185. Then it’s easy to look up that number inWikipedia’s Image sensor format article.
                              So, it turns out that the Nokia N8 camera sensor stretches over roughly 1/1.9, which is an impressive number on its own.

                              Even if Nokia N8 was a dedicated digital camera, its sensor would still be considered large.

                              Nokia camera guru Damian Dinning makes it clear that the image sensor of the N8 measures exactly 1/1.83.

                              - Sony Ericsson Satio – 1/2.5 - 24.7mm2
                              - Samsung Pixon12 – 1/2.5 - 24.7mm2
                              - Nokia N86 8MP – 1/2.5 - 24.7mm2
                              - Sony Ericsson Vivaz – 1/3.2 - 15.5mm2
                              - Nokia N8 – 1/1.83” - 38.2mm2

                              So we have photos which can cover more area without cropping. You see, there are no clear winners previously but N8 will capture wind angle photo with greater resolution as suggested by dpi.
