Vijay my friend, you are full of it. And you expect us to believe you have both Samsung Galaxy S (as in sh*t) and the N8? What are you, just plain cell phone connosieur? If you really do, then you have not tried the N8 for the sufficient learning curve time that most of Symbian users went through. Symbian users are the real technocrats, yes. So that means it requires an average user (like you) to indulge in enought time to discover what N8 can really do. As for the Galaxy S, you can learn it's intricacies in a day, which is probably very appropriate for your lying brain. :-).

            Bunty, 20 Oct 2010I was thinking about this phone but sony ericsson vivaz is more better than this onehmmm...Vivaz has a resistive touch display....obviously not upto the mark for a smart phone....tad sluggish....will agree tht the processor is faster but available RAM on Vivaz is lesser....the resistive touch is still the biggest turn-off

                Hi friends
                Having owned both samsung galaxy s and now n8 (purchased in india@ 23000) I can safely say that in terms of wow factor n8 is no where near to ios or android 2.1 but it does what is being advertised that's is actually good.
                It has one of the best camera and multi media experience.the only problem area which in many of you opinion is very important and that is os.but overall its a good choice for an average human and it may give some enthusiasm to some technocrat for its sheer hardware prowess.nokia as they say is hardware driven company.

                          Mark, 21 Oct 2010Nokia N8 is futureproof. All new updates in S^4 and MeeGo will come to the N8! Nice!!!@Mark
                          N8 will stay at Symbian platform and will recieve Symbian^4 update.

                          In the other hand, MeeGo will most likely go to higher end devices that will most likely have 512mb of ram and 800mhz or higher processor.

                                Bought this phone a couple of days back. I was planning for an android(galaxy s) but budget didn't allow that so went for this instead(a d.grey one).

                                there are a few thing i love about this phone and a few i totally hate.

                                here goes. likes -
                                1.awesome camera and video recording - the best i have seen in a phone
                                2.good screen - not the best (SAMOLED rulz) but good enough to love it (i.e. if you haven't seen the SAMOLED)
                                3.the music player is really nice.
                                4.USB on the go. (having some issues with hard disks and card readers, if anyone can help me with this please do)
                                5.HDMI (don't use it much but still good to have)
                                6.Gorilla glass and scratch resistant body - gives u solid feel.
                                7.and lastly the the FM transmitter.

                                waht i really don't like is -
                                1.seriously lacks some eye candy.
                                2.performance is average (i have experienced a few lags and freezes here and there, and a notice of "out of memory" a couple of times (happened when i was browsing through the picture gallery. only 1 extra app was running at that time))
                                3.shitty picture gallery.
                                4.Issues playing mkv files (only 1 (360p) out of 14 played. most of them were 720p and a few were 360p & 480p.)
                                If someone can tell me how to play them it'll be really helpful.
                                5.USB on the go not supporting HDD (i know that you have watched videos of it supporting them, but believe me i doesn't support mine. I used it with a 160GB WD my passport and a 1TB WD external. doesn't work)
                                6.Browser not good at all.
                                7.On board keyboard is a flop (hoping it would get better when swype comes out).
                                8.Lack of cool apps (but they'll come in some time)

                                Overall it's nice handset for those who are in some serious mobile photography. Other's there are better sets out there, pick one according to your needs.

                                    I've studied my N8 now about a week and it's a fantastic piece of skill and technology. Processor is quick enough because graphics has it's own seperate engine. Unbelievable camera and video, HDMI connection ja USB on the go, FM transmitter sends my phonemusic to my car radio - Jess! Browser may need upgrade but it's coming soon. I said googbye to my N97 and hailed hurray to my N8!

                                      Mac, 21 Oct 2010N8 no doubt a better choice....by miles i would say.Hi,
                                      What do you think are the drawbacks of Sony Ericcson Vivez? It looks great, even gsmarena has given a 8.6 for it's design, Only the Camera is 8 pixel. It has everything that N8 has.
                                      Are Sony ericsson mobiles faulty? Do they have Software problems?
