I forget to say thanks about photo samples you uploaded before. and tell however we can find some photo samples in other sites but I think those sample photos are not real ones. I think some of them are photoshoped and highly selected to show their product better. but i want real and simple n8 photo samples. but good samples.

Dear Wheez thanks again for your reviews,
you know, for many people like me, camera and picture quality of a phone is important the most.
I want you to talk about this part more. and if possible in a better light condition, take some more photos and show us. you know best condition for photography in outdoor is in the evening when sunlight is not that severe and in the shadow. but it must be completely under the shadow. if you have both shadow and sunlight in your frame picture won't be a real picture. stand back to light source and note that A big part of your picture background should not be light emitting. for example if most part of a picture background be sky the picture will be somehow dark. please take some pictures and upload a few of their bests here.

Wheez, 03 Oct 2010I don't know, but I would figure that like Opera Mobile 10 would keep the cache files somewher... moreThanks for your insight. It was indeed useful feedback.
I'm aware of Opera Mini/Mobile. It solves the stated problem. Perhaps, being a non-technical guy, I can't explain but Opera Mini compresses web pages while loading & also leaves lesser burden on C: drive.
However, default browsers on Android & iOS have sort of overshadowed the performance & utility of Opera Mobile. I expect Nokia default browser will raise the standards in mobile browsers.
In case of games directories/game saves, they are different to application itself. Suppose, I've installed a game on SD card, its game saves will store on C: just like cache of browser. Now in iPhone since we don't have external memory, everything settles in 16/32GB. But in others, it stores on C:// or maybe in hard disk. So, if this happens, i'm not too sure whether N8's 135MB C:// would be sufficient !!!

Hamazatta, 03 Oct 2010All,
How is the battery life of N8?
Thanks Due to my tendency to charge my phone every night, I havn't run dry yet, but other people are reporting close to 2 days with relatively heavy use.
Add in the power saving mode which is awesome and you might be looking at 3 days.

Otto, 03 Oct 2010Hi Wheez, Could you test if the USB-OTG works with standard wired USB keyboard and mouse? ... moreI tried with my gaming mouse that my laptop has and it wouldn't work on that, but it's understandable cos it has associated drivers etc. I can try with my fiancee mouse that shouldnt require any drivers, but a normal keyboard I don't own, only laptops in my house :D

i ordered the n8 with e2save with orange on a 24 month contract at 27.50 a month but you also got a free dell note book worth around £250 which i thought sounded to good to be true and it looks like i was right because they are are saying orange have turned me down but i have spoken to orange and they have done no credit check on me the only think that came from e2save was for an upgrade which i think was done on purpose because i am not due an upgrade and i think the offer in the 1st place was a mistake as the offer in no longer available on there site i have since emailed them and said i will be taking the matter further they have replied saying they will be in contact Monday, i wondered if anyone on here tryed taking the same offer

For instance, I'm using ... moreI don't know, but I would figure that like Opera Mobile 10 would keep the cache files somewhere else than C:/, cos it would be installed on the 16gb internal. If you want to, I can find out. It's better than the original browser in just about everything but it lacks pinch to zoom support.

Sorry, can't really help with that.
