        After months of reviewing all the smart phones I decided on N8. I have had the phone 2 months now and have had no major issues with it. Call quality, which was a must for me, is excellent! In the past I have never taken camera phones seriously, until now. In fact a friend who is into photography said they were impressed with the camera quality.

        I know symbian is not the slickest software out there but that for me was not a deal breaker - at the end of the day it works well enough. Again Ovi store might not have the same amount of apps as others, but to be honest most of the apps I have seen are garbage anyway! The N8 in my opinion is a great all rounder and at virtually half the price sim free as a iphone4 it is fantastic value too!

        On a different note, it would be great if Nokia just came out and told everyone when this new firmware update was coming. The speculation was December,then January, now I have heard February....Cmon Nokia!

          Symbian is good?, 26 Jan 2011Are you joking?Your nokia n8 might have the best camera but... morethat weak processor is couples by a better GPU than on ANY other Android or iOS device(prior to the dual core Androids). It also has THE BEST connectivity, THE BEST build qualiy, THE BEST call quality, THE BEST video recording, THE BEST music playback quality(only bested by the N91), THE BEST video codec support out of the box, THE BEST multitasking(wait, the otherz dnt hav real multitasking do they? Lol), and by far the MOST efficient and MOST open mobile OS. Bet ye quiete nw..

                nokia n8 is a very good phone.i have used it for 1 month and found its the best phone we can get .i am really satisfied.n8 is sold numerously.its in shortage in most shops.samsung galaxy is an alternative but n8 scores better in terms of spec and after sales service and high value in second sales market.symbian 3 is good indeed.and has good apps support.

I found tha... moreFor those who have problem connecting with ovi suite try instalation of ovi suite from the phone (it is there preinstalled). If you already have it on your pc it will ask you if you want to repair.Click yes and will do the job. I had the same problem for a long time and i was using only blth.I am sure it will work. Good luck

                          i love my N8 but i hate Nokia....still i have few questions for N8 lovrs including me?

                          1.What is N8 worth for?
                          >>extremly bad browser
                          >>UI is not that good/even SPB mobile shell is smoother
                          >>andoinzed body feels good but can easily get dents
                          >>Social hub is nowhere near to any other smart phone(be it sony ericsson,samsung,motorola or iphone)
                          >>Ovi maps is gr8 but it doesn't provide satellite view of India.....why?
                          >>music unlimited is gr8 but can't play or share with any other devices
                          >>Ovi store has nothing to offer that makes me proud
                          >>Push mail not working on N8
                          >>ovi store crashes or fails quiet often
                          >>Battery performance is very weak comaparitevely(it goes only 2 days on average use...just to increase performance can't keep it in stand by mode all the time)
                          >>DOLBY digital sound is gr8 but sound output on speaker not upto standards expected

                          2.Is there anything to cheer for?
                          >>yes,it's camera is undoubtly best
                          >>onlline software update....i love it
                          >>gaming xperience is gr8 but not for all games
                          >>USBOTGO feature is simply fresh and smart
                          >>FM transmitter...is not that much of use, but definately u can make other guys envy of it

                          3.Is Nokia doing all right?
                          >>Firstly nokia released all its faulty phone into market without having proper quality check
                          >>after tough competion from ios & android nokia brings S^3 which is definately laggy to both the competitors
                          >>UI of ios & android is much eye-candy
                          >>after having dates announced Nokia had never come up with everything on time(be it the case of PR1.1 or something else)
                          >>PR 1.1 was supposed to be on first week of jan, than 19 jan again shifted to 24th jan....this continues(better God knows the exact date)
                          >>may be NOKIA would come up with PR2.0 in 2012(when android and ios will be teasing we symbian users..hate NOKIA)


                          Overall, I can say N8 is gr8 from NOKIA but not the best for competition. Firstly NOKIA's attitude is to be focused to come out winner. NOKIA's engineer what r u doing?plzz be focused.....
