See how quickly the N8 re-focuses on the brickwork compared to the SE?

I have done a little test with an Android Phone and a N8, both which I own(prefer the N8 though).
The Android Phone in question is the XPERIA NEO, which boasts of a extremely good video camera.
Today I updated my N8 with the new Camera update. So here are the facts:
1. Continuous Auto-focus is not working on the N8.
2. Frame-rate is 25-26 FPS, not 30. (Measured by FRAPS).
3. Sony Ericsson Xperia, managed 30 FPS and excellent continuos Autofocus.
Both the phones were put into HD setting (720p) before shooting and all the other settings were done exactly the same.
The Output:
For N8 one:

For Xperia one:

You decide who wins....
For me , even if the N8 does not manage 30 FPS or Conti-Auto-Focus , I would still choose it over the XPERIA any day, because, Just look at the clarity, Fidelity of the Video....... I love my N8...

[deleted post]You clearly stated that the SGS had more updates than the N8, and was insinuating wrongly.
Then you backtracked saying that you bought your Nokia with PR1.2
When proven wrong you got all defensive and used Caps like an Emo Fanboy. I don't think you even own or have ever owned an N8, as you brought absolutely nothing to the argument.
Jog on.

[deleted post]I think you're the one with the mental disfunction, if you have to backtrack on your original claims.

[deleted post]This is because there are a lot of Android, Iphone fans who will come to Nokia threads(plural) every time to bash Nokia. I mean, every Nokia thread, until we Nokia users also get fed up. Dunno why they have so much free time.
Nokia users, we come to Nokia thread to find out info,etc,etc. I dont go and shoot in Samsung threads although I'm not happy with Samsung's durability.

yeaaah! a camera update, for anna users only.
No anna update for Symbian 3 users in Turkey, yet.
It is expected in 3 weeks up to the official Nokia news.
So slow Nokia, so inefficient.

Anonymous, 22 Aug 2011Which part of MY PHONE CAME WITH PR1.2 do you not understand? Are you stupid, ignorant or bot... moreOh dear, look who's busting a bloody vessel.
You pointed out your android had three updates to the N8's one, and I was pointing out that in the year since release, the N8 has had 3 major updates.
So it's not 3 to 1 is it?

[deleted post]ohh hello dude..i agree that there's no match for the touch of the iphone...but then...there's also no match for features if you talk abt the n8..it rocks..the best smartphone camera from the first day of its launching..the sound of the n-series, and the symbian anna, or belle after some time..n8's gonna rule the market..and just take a look at the statistics of cell phones in the "By interest" table, nokia n8 is on the first place! so just think what you say about anything before saying or posting it! got it!

Sorry but Android fails! The BB OS fails! The only good one might iOs again, Symbian Belle is great! IT works amazing. Texting and moving the phone is really comfortable unlike the crappy Android OS in grey... Honestly, they all seem to fail compared to the power of Nokia ;)

what was Nokia waiting for before. I used N8 for a couple of days and I think it is a lovely phone. They should have given it specifications on par with android phones though 1ghz cpu and 512mb ram

Anonymous, 22 Aug 2011Bella on the N8 is better than most Android Gingerbread phones. Once the bugs are worked out, ... moreANNA was a major step up for the N8, and I hope BELLE will be better still but Andriod is developing at a much faster pace than Symbains and by the time BELLE comes out, Android would have moved the goal post yet again. Nokia should not be playing catchup, they should be pioneering. But they simply are not.
