Nokia N8 - user opinions and reviews

My goodness, the n8 is plagued with so many issues. The worst one ever of all among all phones is, it won't even turn on. How can nokia mess up on something very, very basic. Why is nokia selling dead phones? That would only mean that nokia just releases phones without even checking if they work at all. How disappointing. Nokia will be dead just like their dead phones :)

if they are Fat32, i have no idea who use that fat32 anymore? If you bought extra storage usually you fill them like movies and all kind of big files so you have to change them to NTFS which support over 4 giga files.
If you go to your friend place and thinking to copying something and he's storage is NTFS you have nice problem there :)
I think this fat32 vs NTFS is not known for many people, thats why people reporting not workind extra storages with N8. Its very bad it doesnt support ntfs too, but i think its not possible right? like N8 cant support over 2 gig video files, so you have to cut hd movies to get them work, not very useful either.

I'm telling you this as a Vivaz owner.....

But it does have 16GB of mass memory built in. There is also a slot for a memory card with support of upto a further 32GB. It also has USB on the go, which allows you to connect a USB memory stick or pen-drive or indeed an external hard drive if you want.

Q: How many will be affected?
A: Well if you look at the total number of n8's we have shipped, it is a small number.
my question is, How many have they shipped so far? does the Interviewer know and if he does he needs to let us know if at all he was doing this interview for the masses, but hey! it is a Nokia affiliated website so they are not gonna push it are they!!

iPhone went something like...
No there is no problem, well its actually your own fault since your holding it wrong, look other phones can have this problem too if you squeeze em like hell, well okay its on every phone and we can't fix it, but well that glass design will look awesome with this plastic bumper...

Yep just like iphone antennagate, i know many iphone user who hasn't ever had those so called antenna problems. and even smaller amount had any calling problems. Actually i havent heard those real antenna problems almost anyone even these kind of forums, and im not surprised.
Internet has very big influence things like that, they spread very fast and got bigger and bigger.

Unbelievable. The amount of flame-baiting that goes on in these discussion boards. Silly and childish.
As far as the story of the dead N8's, what do people expect?
The N8 is an electrical device and as such is prone to a failure rate of a few percent, as do all other electrical devices. That's why we have warranties.
Can anyone truthfully say that all other manufacturers of mobile phones have never had to replace or repair any of their units under warranty? Of course they can't.
Obviously, some media muppet who happens to be either an Apple fanboy or an Android fanboy jumped at the opportunity to slag off Nokia and blow the whole thing out of proportion.
Wouldn't it be great if the comment boards were kept sensible and informative, instead of these silly flame-wars?
We live in hope.

I mean others are already lagging miles behind and Symbian is still getting new features like USB OTG and showing off by fixing the SD cards that Win 7 phones break etc. How pathetic is that?
Give Android and iOS a chance!
Here is a nice video that shows how S^3 customization is running circles around Android.

Anonymous, 19 Nov 2010"Iphone does not support even the basic things like flash"
And we all know how &q... moreVery few people love using flash content on a phone. Many of us do not even want it on PC.
Nokia N900 has by far the best mobile flash experience out there and it is quite a hassle on heavy sites. Still, there are for example many video sites that are fun to watch with it. There are also several light flash games that can be entertaining.
The main thing is though that there are sites out there that have no other option than flash and with a little bit of bad luck, you still have to use few of those. N900 saved me many times when looking at that stupid flash based train schedule etc.

Moreno, 19 Nov 2010In 5 days or less i will post on this page the comparison a match between Iphone and Nokia N8 ... morer u an idiot? how many times must someone like you post the information that i an all otherrs can see using "compare".
Throughout history there have been disbelievers
so even i as a semi intelligent.. no genius person know 12 is bigger than 5. It does not matter, those disbelievers will agree about non specifics.
THEY ANOTHER PHONE CANT EVEN FIND THE RIGHT PAGE TO POST ON. You're wasting my oxygen teLling me stuff I already know and can get from premier phone magazine
so if you post this oh look at me i know the diiference is that not just copying
I am confident about the phone i am gonna get and just because another user is not don't panda to there insecurity. there are some post and i say wht the heck are they talkig about, and if it interest me i will do the research then there's you "spot the difference".
yeah and lets say for arguments the n8 is laggy theres
another 18 nano seconds waiting for a response when i could be doing something else. you are pandering to people who have to convince themselves tghey have the best phone in the world. you see they have to let you know thats why they are not posting on the nokia 1100 opinions page.
so unless the nokia N8 secretly cooks & cleans I, no we, we can read. we can use the compare function. tell me now what can you do in 5 days or less?
