mac5, 07 Nov 2010Dude...
Nokia took 1 & a half year more to launch n8 as compared to se satio the 12mpx co... morethe difference between Satio and Nokia N8 is that Satio is still old symbian s60V5, but the Nokia N8 is Symbian 3, and THAT took it more time to get it to the market.
satio interface is CRAPPY, just like N97 with the resistive screen.
The N8 on the other hand is a Breeze. and with the updates to roll out, it will only get much better.
Also, its great that Nokia made an OS that runs on mid range specs, rather than make an os and pump up the hardware for performance

Want to install cracked games and apps on iphone - u jailbreak it
want faster processor on andoird phones - u overclock it with third party apps
remove lag from galaxy s with eclair software - install lagfix.
So what if the n8 has those probs, every phone on earth has their own probs too. And there is where the third party apps and software update comes :)

snonre, 08 Nov 2010All can be solved using spb shell, opera and software update :pWell...
Everytime we have to rely on 3rd party applications to solve the problems but when nokia is gonna bring a phone that is problem free.
Solving problems by 3rd party applications SUCKS !!!

If you use Symbian^3 before, it's pretty much the same as S60v5 except they polished it and changed some layouts.
The "Widgets" are not practical, I don't know what they were thinking.
Some of their folders are shown as icons... sometimes you can't tell which are folders and which are applications itself.
As for the on-screen qwerty keyboard... they should have made qwerty for portrait mode as well.
They should have input more power into the N8 not because of the light OS, but for web browsing.
It's not that Symbian's appeal is affecting the users, it's the practicality and intuitiveness that makes the OS great.

I bought a n8 & I tested it's touchscreen responsiveness & ui fastness with my already bought galaxy s.
In n8 sometimes touchscreen don't register touches & ui responds late after the screen has been touched.
But in galaxy s touch anything from any way it will 100% register the touch & ui moves along with the touch, even faster than iphone 4.
Camera is much better in n8 as it's 12mpx compared to 5mpx in galaxy s but video rec. is much better in galaxy s giving superior results to n8 .
In galaxy s there hasn't been a hanging or restarting issue in 3 months of use while in n8 it's been just 9 days & it's already giving me serious restarting issues.
It seems that n8 isn't fully baked.
Screen of galaxy s is much superior than n8. Pixel density is just great in galaxy s while n8 cries for pixel density.
Super amoled screen of galaxy s looks super great as compared to amoled screen of n8.
There is also a serious issue with n8 camera as it can't handle moving objects or little shake properly & spoils the image quality. Even the cheap budget cameraphones can handle a shake.
Gaming is much better in galaxy s as it is equipped with best gpu ever.
And galaxy s is much slimmer than n8.
Browser is uncomparable in galaxy s as after the 2.2 update my galaxy s is running full adobe flash player 10.1 while browser in n8 is the same old slow & lagging without full flash support.
My galaxy s also supports DIRECT WI-FI (a future technology which will end the era of old bluetooth) while n8 don't support it.
And the biggest problem in n8 is it's same old pathetic symbian while android is out of this world !!!

Seems like you have been using android for quite some time, an android user might not find the symbian OS appealing, same goes with a symbian os user towards android os.
There are some things android can do better than symbian os but then again there are some things symbian os can do better. Me? Im comfortable with symbian os and i dont plan to change anytime soon
