[deleted post]Good question. I personally own a black SE Vivaz.

Vivaz:
- 3.2 inch screen
- 8MP camera with 720p HD video recording
- Some cool games or apps
- Touchscreen sensitivity is not the best but still okay
- Speaker is really shitty, just like the iphone its not even loud
- Music player is not the best
- Symbian S60 V5 OS
- 720 processor
- Good battery life
- $350 CAD

N8:
- 12MP camera with 720p HD video recording
- Xeneon flash
- 3.5 inch AMOLED touchscreen
- Symbian 3 OS
- can play any movie file on the phone
- Built in 16GB memory
- Good battery life
- Very loud and high quality speaker
- Nice built quality overall
- Lifetime Navigation Ovi Maps
- Better touchscreen sensitivity than SE Vivaz
- $650 CAD
- 680 processor

Overall, if you have the money go for the Nokia N8. It's a much better phone than the SE Vivaz. I would go for the N8 if I were you...

    I love nokia. However, after purchasing the N8 two days ago, my opinion regarding the companies standereds crashed. The music player is faulty, the software keeps crashing, the web browsing experience is awful, and the touch screens response is jagged and doesn't function smoothly. On the plus side the camera IS SUPERB! brilliant camera indeed. However, if i wanted a brilliant camera i could've simply gone and bought a 100$ one rather than paying 550$ for this disappointing device. Sorry nokia you just lost a fan.

                The American press is hyping iphone as a "todays" high tech and user friendly os.
                I have meet almost 20 iphone users and none,(and i mean none) know how to setup and use email properly.
                One tech-educated guy didn't even understand how to set his calender appointment. Another girl couldn't transfer her photos to the phone. Another user gave her laptop to me to set up her iphone with itunes(sorry for using the last case, she doesn't understand tech).
                I know symbian needs it's improvements but iOS seemed much backwards in terms of UI and functions.

                                  Great decision bro. :) I also live in the Philippines. I'm enjoying my N8 so far. Yes if ever you'll move to Norway, you can still use your n8. Remember it supports a pentaband 3G. It is the best phone for travelers.

                                  It is the first phone to be have pentaband 3G.
