    Robert, 04 May 2011Does anyone knows if the SDHC type of memory cards works wi... more Yes, the N8 does work with micro SDHC cards. It is recommended to use a proprietary brand such as Sandisk or Kingston and that it is class 4 as a minimum.

You will need to activate the feature with your network provider though as it is a service provided by the networks and is usually chargeable.

        ABC123, 04 May 2011You people seem to know a lot. I am undecided between the G... moreI own both the N8 and the SGS.
        The N8 is a solidly built phone with HDMI out, USB on the go and a 12 Mega pixel camera with Xenon flash. It also comes with 16 GB of internal storage ( there is also a 32 GB version available ) plus an SD slot for a further 32 GB of storage.
        However, it runs on Symbian OS which will be discontinued by the start of next year when the new Nokia / WP7 phones are released. Nokia have promised to continue support for Symbian for the next 18 months to 2 years. Symbian Anna ( formerly known as PR 2.0 ) will start rolling out over the next couple of months or so, and there are rumours of a PR 3.0 being released too by the end of the year.

        The SGS is a decent enough Android phone and is very fast and responsive when updated to 2.2.1. The screen is nice and big at 4" and colour reproduction is crisp and vibrant.
        There is the promise of Gingerbread being released for the SGS quite soon ( it was actually released at the end of April, but was pulled by Google on the same day ), but that will probably be the last update the SGS will get.

        So, if you are looking for a solid phone with a brilliant camera and are not really bothered about " apps " then go for the N8.
        If you want a phone with plenty of " apps " then the SGS is for you.

        Hope that helps.

                I just recently bought a galaxy tab & its good for both business & pleasure but lack of some features that n8 has like multitasking & usb otg. Hope Nokia manufacture a 7 inch tablet that runs with symbian & can beat the galaxy tab or any other tablet.

                    Does anyone knows if the SDHC type of memory cards works with the N8? I do not want to buy one and to discover that will not work.
                    Thanks for your help!
