its the advertising scheme that make you really want the phone, the price as well.
in terms of functionality, it is quiet basic, have to admit it does look good. but not worth the price just for its looks.

The designs's a tad plain. Sleek, but plain.
Nokia isn't exactly known for their good designs.

Seriously i dun mind paying 1100 Euros for a phone that Looks the part. But to pay 1100 Euros for a phone that Looks Like a Budget Phone in Design but Only Expensive in Materials? I wouldnt carry it with pride, even if its given to me Free. The only gawks and stares a Nokia 8800 Arte owner is ever gonna get are stares of Disbelief. Whoever in the world would think a phone like this can exude class and social standing?

I'd rather all this money used for the materials but adorned on some better phone that Deserves it. * Yawn *

> In reply to Flames @ 2008-08-20 00:40 from 3HU1calm down yourself, maybe some people have money but finds this phone ugly, the features aren't bad at all but the look??? blargh, I wouldn't get caught with one of those in the pocket... 8800, 8800 scirocco and 8600 luna are much better looking than this accident... I don't love the reguar arte but this is really worse, that carbon look its just tacky!

The drama unfolds yet again. The financially and mentally challenged Nokia bashers are out in full force again. This phone is needless to say not meant for every Jack and Jill so don't be be complaining about the price coz it's clearly not meant for your fiancially challenged pockets. Just go and buy a phone that you can afford instead of frothing about the price and specs.

This reminds me of envious people who were then they see a Rolls Royce or a Maybach go past them, will curse under their breath and even delude themselves that there is nothing special about the car as it has 4 wheels just like the rest. Some advice for you envious guys, just work hard and maybe one of these fine days you may be able to afford the Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte.

here we go again... i commented on the midrange affordable handset coz of the useless rants that i was seeing.

ill start off with the markets issue.
Don't expect every phone thatis released to be one that would be competing in the smart phone arena. The Nokia arte line is targeted to people who wouldn't mind midrange specs for the quality and looks of the phone. Aimed at higher middle class because of the pricing, as i repeat again this isnt a smartphone, don't expect it to come into the N96, Omnia, TouchDiamond etc market. Leave these phones alone. I find it hilarious, all of you seem to think that every phone that comes out is aimed at the extreme highend smartfone market.

Their are other people that have to be catered too u know.

As a previous comemntor sed i quote from Jesus ( http://www.gsmarena.com/newscomm-567.php ) " i won't waste my breath on you.

I wonder what would happen if all phones cost have 8mps, 8GB++ internal harddisks, fm transmitter and all the full load fo every feature you could ever think of. I bet one would yell out where's the xenon flash. What would other people use ay? People who can't afford them. Welcome to the world of phone manufacturer monopolies and cartels!
