brynn, 01 Oct 2010To be honest i have been back here a few times today and expected a huge surge in votes and hi... moreI think the wave has a huge surge in votes and ridiculous ratings because somebody is using proxy. I was reading the wave's spec and I clicked refresh and wham, the wave had 50 more votes. So I did a test and click the wave page again in less than a minute and the wave had another more than 10 votes. Either sammy's fans really love their phone or the employees really love the company or both, but this is not right. They shouldn't abuse the voting system. And while they vote 10/10/10 on sammy phones, they probably vote 1/1/1 for Nokia phones and I think that's totally not cool.
I start to feel that gsmarena should require a login for people to vote. Otherwise, people just abuse the system and the ratings become irrelevant.

Hi Wheez,
Does N8 have the same on screen-slider (as in the N97 series) for answering calls when locked? If so,does it have occasional "white Screen" problem we had with Nokia N97 when answering calls while the phone is locked?

Stuntman, 01 Oct 2010I find this, for the most part, a pretty good in-depth review of the N8. It told me what I wa... moreI agree about folder system and used it since n3650,i create an Unused or Junk folder & put all the stuff i dont use in their so its still there if neded and NOT deleted..Everyone will be different in what they use most but i often make a new media folder and shove all media stuff in that,,i then do an office one and sort that out better.Symbian often uses these folders but i make new ones to suite as ofen the office is under apps and you cannot move to root.
I love symbian and tried others and perhaps odd in that i dont mind windows either,these Android things are just not techy just lovely little icons.There is nothing better than searching for and app and downloading it to find out you have to roll back time to install it,you feel as if you done something..

Anonymous, 30 Sep 2010I just read a review of N8 @
http://www.techradar.com/reviews/phones/mobile-phones/nokia-n8-6... moreI find this, for the most part, a pretty good in-depth review of the N8. It told me what I wanted to know about the N8 and Symbian^3.
I think the reviewer is carrying some baggage from older Symbian phones. The organisation of the apps in multi-level folders is not an issue to me. I find that I reorganise everything in folders in a way that I prefer anyway. I have tried an iPhone before and they have everything scattered everywhere on the home screen. Just my personal preference to put things in folders. An extra level of folders help reduce the sheer number of apps in one screen.
The reviewer also said, "What's weird is there's nothing disastrously wrong with the Nokia N8." I think everyone still remember the N97. I guess Nokia can take this as a compliment, but it sounds like an insult as well.
The only thing I don't understand is his criticism about the volume buttons. "There's also a volume key with raised buttons, although these are fairly far away from each other, so can be hard to hit when you're not looking." Like what's that about?

A well balanced phone
I had hopes the RAM memory was greater
Great device

Do you even know what 'slow motion' is? Ofcourse videos shot at 120fps are slow motion as the video is slower when played back. And in case you don't know, phone manufactures (LG and Samsung) have only provided 120fps videos in QVGA resolution not VGA! Get your facts straight before replying to something you know less about!

Jimmy, 30 Sep 2010Wheez, can u do a video review for N8? Incase u have done it already, do post a video link.I did, but it's so hard without a good camera with a tripod. It became very very crappy. And it wasnt really a review, mainly showing the features and the OS, but so many features I couldn't fit into it.
I'll try uploading it tomorrow, it's so slow and havnt had the time to do that yet.
For the poster after that: What do you mean with battery back up? There is no "normal TV" output, so HDMI is the only option, there may be HDMI-"normal TV output (is it AV or something)" adapter for sale, but at least not included in the box.
The headset is WH-701

And about color...i agree with you.
When i was buying 5230 half year ago i was searching whole town to find white with blue back cover. I dont like black or silver phones.
But i must admit N8 looks great in every color.
But personaly i would get green it looks kinda odd, then blue and then orange. Black is ok and silver is...ugh don't really like it!
