    stooooop a lil bit and take a breath... ok, i might be with you on the symbian thing, windows 7 is better till know, but if you take the meego in count.. it'll blow everything out of their socks!!! and what is you guys thing with super amoled stuff.. it's only 4% better but 20% more expensive, nokia has its own new touch screen called Nokia back light or something like that... its 34% better than super amoled in display and touch, but just as expansive as the amoled... cheer up nokia lovers.. nokia is back on the track...

                  Jus got my n8 great phone and so far no problems.. Pure value for money. My question is the camera is set to 9mp default and when i change it to 12mp it doesn't cover the full screen. In terms of detail to my eye i don't see any difference in these two settings so perhaps some1 can guide me which setting is best and also y nokia choose 9m as default when it has 12mp? I want the best pic settin and quality for my pictures so which 1 do i use

I upgraded to the latest version to have Office 2007 compatibility, but that's it. I'm even getting used to the virtual keyboard, coming from full keyboard devices.
                    The phone is completely customisable. I have had it for to months now, installed the latest firmware straight out of the box, and I have strictly NOTHING to complain about. Haters and envious people, get lost.

True, it started all of it, but it is the poor service from nokia care in your region which caused all of this.

                      i too had some difficulties with nokia care with my country when i sent my previous nokia phones there to be fixed (but not as bad as yours though)

                      Despite that, nokia is still renowned for their good after sales services compared to other phone manufactures (samsung being one of the examples)

                          The Nokia N8 powers off very often and when you go to the nokia care centre they will re install the software and say that the software has a problem.
                          Its very cumbersome every time u go to the care centre when ever its not powering up ..........................
                          I am the one right now facing the problem...

                            I had bought Nokia N8 phone 1 day after its launch on 13/10/10 from Nokia Priority Partner Store at Inorbit Mall, Malad Mumbai. It was a grey color handset. On 14/11/10 when I tried to charge the battery of the phone charging did not happen and the charging indicator light also did not glow to indicate that charging is taking place. Worried I consulted the handset manual which mentioned that if the battery has been completely discharged then it may take several minutes before indicator may show charging taking place. But even after 2 hours of plugging in the charger neither battery got charged nor did indicator show that charging is taking place.

                            On morning of 15/11/10 I took my handset to the aforementioned Nokia Priority Partner Store from where I had purchased it and told them about the problem. They checked the handset and after half an hour told me that it needs to be sent to Nokia's Delhi facility for the rectification. I was also told that it would take maximum 8 working days for the problem to be rectified and handset to be handed back to me. Today We are sitting on 20/12/10 and I am yet to receive my handset back. Thus, my handset has been with Nokia care for 36 days. In the meantime, when I inquired from the concerned people at the Nokia Priority Store I was told that my handset should have been replaced but it was sent back from Delhi facility by making repairs. Hence, the store management has shipped it back to Delhi insisting on a replacement of the handset as per company policy as it was a manufacturing defect. This was on 7/12/10.

                            The store manager even offered me a standby handset as well which I declined as I wanted to enjoy the experience of using my N8 only. This being the reason I bought it the very next day of launch ignoring the advice of my friends to wait for some days and buy it from Croma at a lower price. In fact, by October end, I saw the same handset being offered at around Rs.2000 less at Croma.

                            After that, on 14/12/10, I got a call from Nokia Care office in Goregaon (E) informing me that my handset would reach Mumbai by 22/12/10. Then, on 16/12/10 I again received a call from the same Nokia Care office that replacement handset for me has arrived but its IMEI no. label has slightly come off but the set is perfect so I have the option of either collecting it in that condition or I can refuse to collect it in that condition. In this case they would then again call for a new handset from Delhi facility and hand it over to me by 25th or 26th December 2010.

                            Even after, writing to the customer care @ Nokia and calling them up several times there has been no proper response from the company.
                            Hence, would request all those who are considering buying Nokia N8 to consider this and stay away from this Handset.

                                i am not satisfied with my n8 camera, the pics look very dull, when i use the flash, the pics look rather frustrating. The whole pic gets a white kind of formation. My n73 was giving far good quality pics, which i sold for purchasing this phone.
                                Is any setting is required to fix these problems. Plz rply. I have spent all my money for this one.

                                  Who knows that the people who clamiming that i bought N8 and it was crap is really bought the phone?

                                  Because i am a N8 user, i got the piece as soon as it hit the market & everything is fine no issues at all.

                                  So dnt go with such crap.

The version of quick office is just the app for symbian^1, as you can see it still has the double trap annoyance, but its just a better of time, I'm sure office with multi touch and better UI will be absolve soon, and for your information most android devices ships with the same quick office product, but when you see the usability of them you can be quite sure that there will be a better app soon available. Quick office debuted in symbian and they simply can't avoid it. The fact that quick office is not functional at the moment doesn't man that N8 is bad our crap.
