    [deleted post]I know how depressing it is when something that you've paid for is defective and the service people are unable to fix it.

    I don't know how bad your phone's tint is, but AMOLEDs in general have a slight color tint to them. It's just like LCD's no-true-black problem. LCDs can't show true blacks and there is no way to fix that.
    My brother's C7 also has a very slight tint but it isn't really noticeable.

    There might be some perfectly calibrated AMOLED displays with no tint at all, but they are hard to find.

    It seems that your phone's tint problem is a serious one and nokia care hasn't been able to fix it.
    To be honest, there are people, even here on gsmarena, who are reporting that their phones have been fixed.

    I hope you can get your phone fixed too, soon.

        AnonD-7337, 29 Apr 2011Which is better N8 or E7? Does N8 have skype video calling.... moreHey utkarsh!..i suggest u go for the n8..considering the fact that the only difference b/w them is the QWERTY keyboard in the e7 and the 8mp fixed focus vs the 12mp auto focus camera in the n8..n considering the 7k price difference n8 seems the better bet...but of course if u r into heavy messaging n editing docs ..the e7 is a fantastic device too..it has a 4 inch CBD screen compared to 3.5 inch screen of the n8..but lacks a memory card slot restricting the memory to 16 gigs which is sufficient in most cases..

        Unfortunately neither e7 nor n8 have skype video calling yet ..jus the audio calling feature is available..however there are various other apps which let u video call over wifi such as TING..

                Hello Guyz!!!

                Yesterday, I bought my very own N8, it is superb!!!, I just finished installing some themes and applications, but I noticed that my unit is also affected with purple screen, but it is not a problem, it can't be noticeable as it blends with the theme's colors.

                By the way, may be by next month, I will return to the store and will look for the better one, but mine is just fine. Lets see for how many days, because for now I can't get my hands off to this superb n8, I'm glad I got a high speed internet plan, slow browsing is not a problem with my N8, this thing is fast. Very excited for the Symbian Ana

                P.S. anyone here knows how to check the manufacturing date or something like production batch? Thnks

                  AnonD-2665, 29 Apr 2011hi,itz worldwide problem of nokia n8 and i think nokia is u... moreA friend of mine is a hardcore Nokia fan and he's due for a HUP on his carrier. He was going to get an N8 and we can't find a perfect one. We'll try again over the weekend on another store and I can't convince him to go Android.

                  Anyhow, goodluck getting it fixed.

                    Ain't got one yet but is it true that there's that clicking sound/noise when "recording videos"?
                    ...i have watched samples of n8's video rec. tests on youtube and it always has that noise especially when the lens "auto" focuses on the subject(like when recording in close ranges with the subj.)

                    Also,is there a difference in autofocus and continuous autofocus when it comes to recording videos???

                    tnx
