I speak from experience as am a former N97 user. People are still waiting for that all important hot fix nearly 2 years on. Nokia High end smartphones are underpowered and there just ain't enough RAM installed, Symbian itself may not need to much CPU cycles or RAM but third party apps installed may. Off course IOS has bugs but at the end day people affected by the loss of signal are in the minority. Otherwise it works flawlessly. With Nokia phones you need to know which combination of buttons to hold down to reset or learn how to take the battery out and if you do it to the N8 you void your warranty.
    It's all about user experience, that's why IOS is out selling symbian in the high end market sector as it a much better user experience.

            Wake up you Nokia N8 bashers! If you hate this phone then why can't you leave this N8 page? Why you keep coming here? You are like a guy who keeps on annoying his beautiful Ex-girlfriend that realizes his ugliness and don't have interest on him anymore but still keep on coming... haha! If you hate, you should leave and forget...

              [deleted post]you are nitpicking. Remember this is the first Symbian 3 firmware (with full of features that lack in ios and Android) without a major update yet. Tell me if on earth there is any bug free os or software. Even a few year old microsoft windows os can have frequent updates and hot fixes. What would you say?

              Do you have a short position in Nokia even you are a Finnish and your position just makes you have an anti bias.

                      azm, 08 Nov 2010hi everybody.. does n8 has horizontal virtual keyboard? thanksBy default it doesnt have a portrait qwerty keyboard, only a numerical keyboard like the ones you find on non-touch scree phone. But there is a software update which brings the portrait keyboard, as well as an improved browser and dragable home screen

                          this phone nokia N8 doesn't work well the response of the touch screen is not that much 100%. so if someone is planning to buy this phone just double think first before buying it...

                            BTW, Symbian 4 was supposed to be the UI rewrite. Symboan 3 simply changes things under hood like Qt. That is why it was such a great thing Nokia promised those updates to N8.

I take a neutral view. The n8 just feels a little like nothing has moved on. The screen is more like in general use a resistive screen. I actually think it's probably the under powered processor, that slows everything down in reality. Scrolling can be slow and you feel the phone is still working on last instruction. Gaming is mediocre, nfs runs but lags a little, the camera is fantastic. Audio great, even supplied earphones with remote excellent. Can you create your own equaliser preset, did not see that option? Case and screen build quality good, but it lacks this phone, it lacks. The o/s feels like it needs a complete makeover again, and it's new. Had high hopes for a symbian that was more up to date, shame. Actually using zte blade to reply as heyboard easier to use and faster.

                                  Nokia N8 experience update: unpluged the phone from the charger at 5 in the morning. Did average music playing time, a little web surfing, gps mapping, little photo taking, little calling, much texting. It is now 12:30 am the next day. What is my battery percentage after all that? 100%. Quite ridiculous amount of resources conserved in battery saving mode

Whatever bashing you do, there's no stopping for N8 surge. I am a REAL owner and to tell you people it rocks and mind you the price is very reasonable for this kind of high tech gadget. The guy who posted the comparison for sure don't own N8, he just got the opinion from some bloggers who continuously bashed N8 (the apple and android fanboys who don't have budget now to purchase N8 because they alredy throw their money to ishit and dying android)
