Over at PHNT they have managed a few hacks, which include 30fps recording, whilst autofocus!

I received the N8 from Vodafone and found that I can't type anything on the screen. Not sure if this has something to do with the handsets Vodafone are handing out or the software is corrupted on the phone but it sucks. Going to give it back to Vodafone and ask them for a new one. If the problem happens again I rather get an iphone 4 instead. Previously had nokia E series phones and found them to be really cool. Now its not going good for the N series. Tried hard resets but still can't type anything on the screen. Anyone has suggestions? I'd rather give it back to the V shop.

Hello everyone! I just want to let you know that I also love the N8, I've been wating for it for the passed 6 months and finally tomorrow I might have it my hands...It's the most complete phone out there and ...it's a Nokia so I would reccomend ot to everyone. Don't are about Iphone,HTC,Samsung and so on, the N8 has it all. Go on N8, brake more and more records! LOVE IT!

oh really? mediocre specs? can you tell me does those HTC, Ipohne or Android phones has USB-on-the-go, 12mp camera, f transmitter and more from this Nokia N8? I don;t think so. Maybe in few years they will going to have those features. The only advantage of those phones are it's UI and internet experience... they even failed in the most impt.feature of a phone which is calling... duh! drop call! haha! what a smartphone!

Goutham1454@gmail.co, 02 Nov 2010Hi selva, i'm to planning to buy this , but seeing all the ... moreI have this phone over a week but never faced any problem like this, and its very obivious that some phone(any company) might have problem.People are criticizing it just because its browser is not as fast enough like their, but a new improved browser is in pipeline and it will be better from them. Now iphone maker are advertising about face xxx software but nokia had this function right from n73.
I always like nokia since its os just makes me very comfertable, just look any front screen of n8 , you can have almost all the main application on screen that you are using, instead of funky style and it will matter since looks fever last for hours only.
Camera wise really superb, sound excellent, advance multimedia features and lots of other feature also, but if you will go mad just because it doesnt support qwarty keyboard in verticle mode(many are blaming it for this reason) since in this way you can use it with single hand.

Still now no issues in my phone not even any minor issues. And am much happy with my N8. Its simply super. To say about browsing experiane, its not too good and at the same time its not bad. Presently u can use opera to overcome. Also the browser will be very good with next firmware update(expecting to be excellent thay any of the existing web browser). If u r a nokia love then u will really love this phone.

AgeOfMobile, 01 Nov 2010The good stuff, short and sweet- - Great battery life. ... moreThe iPhone's screen is bigger because it's ratio is 3:2, whereas the N8's screen is 16:9. Obviously the wider a 3.5" screen gets, the smaller the actual screen area. It's simple maths.

Well I was trying out the music player and found it plenty loud enough for my ears, and, do you know, it played tunes! No, that's not being snide, I got a real fealing for the intricacies of what I was listening to (Purcell, Vaugn Williams, Bach, and Howard Shore).
Since I don't listen on the tube it's fine for me.
Very happy.

The good stuff, short and sweet-
- Great battery life.
- Great camera and video.
- Loud speaker is loud (that’s the whole point right?)
- Good display.
For the rest of the good stuff, read gsmarena’s key features.
Problems with the device are,
- No video light when recording.
- Music player good quality but not loud enough compared to an iPhone when headphones are plug in.
- Plays avi and xvid well, however when you fast forward your videos the sound stops and end up having to lip read the rest of the movie.
- Problems trying to connect to the internet when not on wifi.
- Most the time I find myself having to double tap to get into an app, messaging, camera, etc... Not very responsive for a capacitive screen.
- UI looks the same as any other Nokia
- No facebook, no twitter, no google, no imdb, none of the basic apps and on the TV adverts exists on the Ovi store, its all fake. Just pointless apps like fart and vuvuzela. (Luckily there is Angry birds and free full game of Need for speed shift)
- There’s plenty more but can’t be bothered to go through it all. Just one last thing, yeah I know iPhone, iPhone iPhone… but an iPhone is 3.5” inches, the Nokia N8 is not. Compare it your self then you’ll understand.
