adil, 20 Nov 2012tell me any reason why i should not buy this phone ..plllzzzzIf you are not a internet freaq or a apps fanatic. The reason is right in front of you, what do you want more? Best signal you find, strong battery, fm transmitter, usb on the go, 41 mp camera, symbian belle, very good build quality. It is Nokia, so it´s not a surprise! Tell me what you want more:)

Symbian OS is really amazing,very simple,very stable and you get every thing from it.I wish Nokia keep to Symbian for ever
But I don`t know why Nokia is very preservative in specifications of Symbian phones.the highest symbian phone has 360x640 screen,4" and 1.3 GH processor.imagine the n 808 has HD screen 4.5" , 1.5 dual core processor or more and double battary capacity,wouldn`t it be the perfect phone ever(although it is already amazing)
Haris, 20 Nov 2012Off-course I've updated my phone to FP2 at 1st day.. I didn't use FP1 for even once, thats why... moreWhat do you like to have, a working phone or a HD games list? I sugest you to do the steps i toled you to do, yes, you will lose everythin you have installed, but nokia store has the list of them all. Enter in 'my stuff' (the head near the search button) then all downloads, there you heave all your downloads. If i were you, my phone would have been already formatted and half of apps already installed, if not all. :).
AnonD-78201, 18 Nov 2012hi friends, ever since this phone has been announced, i have been following you guys here. you... moreCongratulation man for following your heart.
my gallery is hanging since this morning :( I ve restarted phone many times but still same
AnonD-2665, 20 Nov 2012i know this is possible! Have u updated ur phone? There is also an update for nokia store, use... moreOff-course I've updated my phone to FP2 at 1st day.. I didn't use FP1 for even once, thats why I don't know the differences..
Thanks all u guys for your replies...
And thanks David I'm using Opera Mobile, Mini & even for Desktop for more than 3 years, & yes that is really good and fast..
I'm looking for satellite view of India that is not available in Nokia maps other I'm completely agree with you David Nokia map is best... thanks for the link wty...
I wanna ask that if I'll reset my phone using codes then what will happen with my apps & games, will they remain or I need install them again... what about paid apps... do I'll need to buy them again or nokia account will remember that list...
I'm using nokia from beginning (1. Nokia 3500 classic, 2. Nokia 3550, 3. Nokia 808) I've never owned any other smartphone other than Nokia... so please guys don't think that I'm just criticizing Nokia... Whatever I shared with you people that is my own experience with this device...
Now I'm sure there is some issue with Nokia Store because today I got an update (24K) for nokia store, after installing I started Store & that's it, screen goes blank & device is completely hanged, I leave it for 30 min as it is.. but nothing happened, then I remove battery & started it again... and it happens only on 3G network not with Wi-Fi...
I can try to reinstall the firmware, formating memories, But don't want to do that because I've downloaded lots of HD games that need to be reinstalled again I think...
Haris, 19 Nov 2012I bought my Nokia 808 3 days before in 25K in Delhi.
No doubt its a great camera phone. If ... moreHi,
I am surprised that this phone hangs for you.
Also, why u need Google Maps? U already have NOKIA MAPS which is the best map service available.
I suggest you to use "Opera Web browser" .. that will give u very fast browsing experience..
With respect to apps & games, please find the below link:

I hope my reply helps u..
Hei i use this phone now. Its good and better video quality. Its camera is so amezing. Price: rs. 38,600
Haris, 19 Nov 2012Thanks bigbite... But man I'm telling you my one got hanged more than half dozen time in 3-... morei know this is possible! Have u updated ur phone? There is also an update for nokia store, use 'app stop' to kill unnecessary background tasks! Agree about battery life, it is short!
Haris, 19 Nov 2012Thanks bigbite...
But man I'm telling you my one got hanged more than half dozen time in 3-... moremy phone gets fully charged in just 2hours even if I use it and it could last a day and half or two of heavy usage... it's pretty darn fast and smooth, I had no major issues such as crashing of apps, freezing,; and switching camera modes is not a problem.. No lags at all even when I use the whole 38 megapixels.. The native browser may not be fast at all times but if you have a good coverage man it's way faster than you would expect. And what really amazed is that I can download videos as large as 1.3gb in less than an hour... I haven't tried using google maps yet even the time I use my c7 cause I'm good enough with nokia maps...
I believe that when you purchase a product you do usually get several days of replacement to check it.. you should have asked for a replacement since your having problems with it.. By the way it's not possible to use the front camera for taking pictures cause that's mainly for video calling only unless further updates would allow us to do so.. :)
Another thing I forgot to mention, the in-ear headphones that come together with the 808 is a waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than those which came with N8.
The audio output on 808 is much better than on N8 (which was already much better than any Android phone, but close to the Cirrus Logic iPhone 4S).
Im still in love with my 808. :)

No doubt its a great camera phone. If ... morePlease before posting search this forums there was written allot of times what should you do when this happens. I tell you, and maybe will come more saying the same. But i will tell you so maybe you will tell to others. What ever problem you have after updating you can "repair" it very easy. Just format your mass storage and bring your phone to factory settings then reinstall the system. If you don't know how:
1. Enter files/long press mass mem then hit format
2.hit *#7370#, will ask for security code (if you have one) give your security code, accept everything then the phone will restart, and will remain to just "NOKIA" for a couple of minutes (in this period the phone is formatting and rewriting the original apps). After all, delete the folder containing your firmware in your pc presuming you have win7 the files are ex: C:\Users\Ray\AppData\Local\Nokia\NSU3\NOSSU2\variants\Products\rm-596
or this C:\ProgramData\Nokia\Nokia Suite\NOSSU2\variants\Products\rm-596
This are hidden paths you need to activate show hidden files, folders and drives from folder option/view
After all is done, phone restarted and everything is formatted, plug the phone into usb, open Nokia suite and hit reinstall firmware. See if this problems are persisting. Remember to backup first the important files. Never backup apps or settings
sanbin24, 18 Nov 2012i think finally Elop is gonna sell Nokia to microsoft. Every other competitor now has started... moreAll the phones from the market are the same...S3 was 680 euro when was released, now is 480 euro. And this applies to all manufactures. This is the market! I don't think Nokia will ever sell it self to Microsoft. Nokia has power. The problem was that they had to many factory's and most of them were in Europe. Which is normal minding the fact that they were selling phones like cakes. BUUT... problem came when they stopped selling so many devices and allot of factory's were consuming money. In which case Nokia was forced to cut the looses. Nokia was the only phone that was not made in china. Now is something other, unfortunately was forced to go to China. Minding the fact that all it's competitors are there and were attacking from there affording to wait to sell their crapps, cause waiting was cheaper then selling:)) (joke). Nokia could not do that. Another but is that: what goes up must come down..... then up again. This is marketing. And Nokia is taking it's problems quite good. They still push innovations and quality even though they are made in china now...
bigbite87, 19 Nov 2012I am currently charging my phone and i tried opening the store via 3g and see what happened bu... moreThanks bigbite...
But man I'm telling you my one got hanged more than half dozen time in 3-4 days... Even sometimes without reason... I was just scrolling home screen & suddenly screen went black... (hanged)
When I change camera still to video 1 out of 3 times camera app crashes, if you are changing it after taking some pics using still camera... then Open camera again just change it to video mode then it works other wise i've faced this issue twice back to back...
I thinks Native web browser & store has some issue becz I've experience freezing while using these two app only.
Using this phone while charging has no problem, I use it while charging often...
My brother Nokia maps doesn't provide satellite map for India... when I try to download map it says "map not found on server" that's why I'm looking for Gmap.
One more thing... Battery is also not last for Morning to evening after full charge... I just leave it connected with wi-fi, I'm using 2 e-mail widget, one social widget, 1 weather widget that uses internet that's it... and few minutes call, 25-30min store browsing & download 1 app of 18 MB... At evening it was only 10% battery left... I was just surprise with this..
I think its improving as days are going becz today it last long than before 2 days...
Any way thank for your valuable replies...
Can you tell how to access front camera to capture pics & vids without using any video calling app...
