As a matter of fact, if you do a straight test with the HTC Desire HD, iPhone 4 and Galaxy S, I think you'll find that the sound quality and volume is superior in every way.
And if you do get a chance to playback a High Definition video (720 fps) on both the N8 and S-LCD based Desire HD I think you'll retract your comment regarding the N8's alledged inferior screen, because it's running standard OLED technology.

Anonymous, 01 Dec 2010ok u can adjust with ur n8 after spending 23 k..but y??there r bettetr options.....no need for... moreWell i'm from malaysia and i only got it for rm1500, which to me is quite reasonable considering the features and the phone is still new. And nokia doesnt give a shit about me.
'y u have to wait for upgrades for basic things to work properly!'
same goes with iphone4, where they say that reception prob is fixed with the software update (making calls is very basic) android 2.1 to 2.2 (2.1 cant install apps on SD card, which is one of the basic things in a smartphone)
"u r happy with ui "UI and screen doesnt bother me much, as long i can use it, it's fine with me."how can u manage with it??the ui is atleast working thats enough for you??"
well i have been a symbian user from the start so the UI is familiar to me.
"audio quality is there, just a low volume (hope nokia can fix this" again the same thing..how nokia will make it louder its a hardware thing..\"
audio and volume CAN be improved through software update. Nokia has been providing better audio and volume through software updates, the latest is the nokia X2. (i think)
'and y the games like hero of sparta is running slow??u will probably say not using gpu..but y??nokia has released the fone after so much delay!!but there is no game available which is coded for symbian 3??and can use gpu??'
all of the games use the GPU. the reason why gameloft games are slow cause gameloft are lazy to properly port the game to symbian^3 platform. If NFS shift, angry birds, galaxy on fire and rally master pro can run smoothly on the symbian^3 platform, why not gameloft games? Is all about the willingness of the developer to port and code it properly.

I was about to buy this phone at NOkia. i am already a user of n82. After I Tried the camera its good but I'm not overwhelmed. Focussing is fast. The lady said the xenon didnt flash so we tried again with flash. N82 wins. I end up not buying.

Cpu is coupled with a great GPU so the smoothness is there, web browser will be improved a lot in the next update. UI and screen doesnt bother me much, as long i can use it, it's fine with me. Just one restart with my unit. Resolution produces a 16:9 ratio, great for viewing vids.
Anything else will you like to throw at me?

I told you before, no N8 users (maybe iphone or samsung or your wife?) insist you to come here and read about virtues of N8 and the result is you lose your temper like Donald Duck. Just keep barking, haters !!

But i still dont understand why many (if not all) people are pushing the n8 up against the iphone4 and top android phones.

Pls look at other people, but dont target me. I bought the n8 cause it had almost all of the features i need and it was within my budget (wave was a no go for me).
My explanation could also be applied to other fanboys, not just nokia fanboys ;)

So do you expect him (an apple fanboy/... more"In my experience all apple users/fanboys regard every other gadgets that are not created by apple as 'shit' and 'useless' and worship their own gadgets like a gift from god (despite the limitations)", replace "apple" with "nokia" and you have described nokia-fans, including yourserlf. Nokia-fans are even more fanatic than apple-fans, but they often do not have enough money to be an apple-fan and that makes them even more fanatic nokia-fans.
N8 have great hardware, but Symbian still really totally sucks. N8 with Android and 480 x 800 pixels would be a real winner, maybe best phone ever, but with Symbian N8 dies and can not compete against IPhones or the top Androids.
