Cpsathar, 02 Nov 2010I bought this phone last week with 24k and dead next day!Lets get some facts here,did you charge fone ??Why are you not returning it to where you bought it from for refund.faulty returns on n8 have been found to be user error via my service center pals.Other returns have been for personnel reasons like change of mind.
Can you return a fone to Tesco for refund hes had it 2 weeks but john my mate just does not like it ? Thats his decision tho, i am fine with mine but i am not bullying him to keep it.He loves his blackberry but cannot comment because ive never used blackberry hes going for the torch if he can get refund.Tech blogs are saying the screen is poor on torch so could take mickey out of him but each to their own,if hes comfortable with BB and it does what he wants from a mobile then i respect that/..
To sum up if you are coming from another platform i can see how confusing and complex symbian is ,so,get your fone swapped for something YOU want and does the job for YOU.A 12 megapixel is not going to help a buisnessman get contracts when his main use of mobile is email/txt or instant communications,BUT,neither is the htc good for peole listening to podcasts cause their tranducers are rubbish and cameras.

Well I have just ended my 6 month association with my N97 mini. I didn't have too much of a bad run with it but it really let me down over the last few weeks. I've taken the jump and got an N8 - The charcol coloured one. Pretty pleased so far and adjusting to the change. The biggest thing I'm happy about is that I can now play Angry Birds. I was so close to getting an Iphone 4 but couldn't bring myself to do it. There are a couple of things that do annoy me:
1) When typing a long message it's a bit fiddly to go back and review what you have typed - instead of scrolling it highlights.
2) Like everyone else, I can't wait for the Portrait keyboard
3) When hooked up to the computer you can't copy files to the phone memory - strange.
4) You can't use MP3's on the phone memory as ringtones - strange. The songs appear in the music player but will not appear when you try to add them as a ringtone. When I moved the songs to the mass memory they were instantly available.
5) In File Manager it takes a bit to get used to a holding your finger on an item to get more options.
6) OS is still too similar to N97.
On the plus side:
1) I've only taken one photo and am impressed how quick it was to focus and save.
2) I can read the display outside!! Let me say that again - I can read the display outside.
3) Build quality looks excellent. I just don't like the HDMI port cover.
4) Multi tasking is so much better than N97
5) It is much quicker

It should drop to 20000 as a christmas special. The thing is, Nokia knew the n8 is ok but did not expect it to do so well from the stat. Now Nokia is busy increasing production to satisfy the huge demand. Many dealers, big and small, took advantage of the delivery shortages and unnecessarly inflated the N8's price.

there r so many reasons to get this phone, fm transmitter, xenon,12mp cam, multi touch,usb on the go and the most important is its resonable price. in kashmir india it is for 22,300.

andy burgin, 02 Nov 2010The N8s camera is not as good as my old Nokia N82 in close up images ,i have tested both toge... moreTheir are LOTS of updates to come and two of the biggest complaints so far are browser and social integration app..Anew browser is due to come out before xmas but i tried to upload to flickr but could not find anyway to do it..I asked flickr for help and they gave me an email address to upload straight to flickr which is fast and does the job.HAVE NOT USE PHOTO MUCH YET BEEN TO BUSY CUSTOMISING n8 AND VIDEO IN HD AND PLAYING IT THRU TV AS WELL AS BROWSING WEB ON TV THRU HDMI.

I've had many reliable Nokia's in my time so that's the reason I've gone for this lovely phone and its simply gorgeous in every way. It's looks, the feel, the smooth screen and the videos are outstanding! the camera is amazing. Making and receiving calls are excellent as is texting in alphanumeric-although a tadge harder as keys have been moved-but damn good.
I've also found contrary to popular belief, that it's battery and processor are as good as any other smart phone, indeed as any other phone I've had.
Yes, I'm a proud owner of the N8

The N8s camera is not as good as my old Nokia N82 in close up images ,i have tested both together an the camera on the N8 needs a software up date to take better pictures at close up items,the cameras o.k taking long photos an flash o.k,so hope Nokia do give us a up date soon to improve the camera more
