      dave, 09 Sep 2010Yes, you are blind! N8 has xenon for photos AND LED flash for video!! Don't make false comment!!I take my word back sorry it does not have LED flash.
      Read Nokia interview,

      There appears to be an LED by the Xenon flash. Can that be used as a video light?

      The LED next to the xenon flash is optimized for autofocus assistance. It’s amber-red in colour and therefore is not practical for use with video. It also serves as a privacy indicator and tally lamp when shooting video.

      The N8 uses Xenon flash for stills but why didn’t you include an LED solution for video?

      To get sufficient illumination from an LED solution over a usable distance today, you need to use dual LED. Current generation single LEDs provide little more than a tick box on a spec sheet. Unfortunately, we simply had insufficient space for Dual LED as well as Xenon, the area around the camera is packed very tightly already.

      I know some of you will say you’d rather the device was a few mm’s thicker, etc. but it’s very important to balance the design against the functionality, otherwise people will say it’s ugly which will influence its appeal. But we we’re always listening to market feedback and therefore continue to try and develop the perfect solution. But for some, it’s just not possible. In a world of over 6.5 billion people that’s hardly surprising.

                Anonymous, 09 Sep 2010It does matter to him because he can see tissues and cells with his bare eyes, got my point? L... moreAnd, in addition to what you have said, 640x360 has better ability to view smaller resolution pictures, for example, how could a picture of 100x100 resolution will look like on a 800x480 3.5in? Smaller, right? You'll end up straining your eyes just to see the details. It could be very annoying. Whereas a 640x360 3.5in screen can view smaller resolution pictures at a very comfortable size. A big resolution picture are no problem either, that's why there is a term called downscaling.

                For me 640x360 is enough for a screen size of 3.2 to 4.0 inches diagonal. You know, that's why computer screens don't go, lets say 3000x2000 pixels given the fact that they are bigger in diagonal size, because it's utterly pointless.

                A big resolution screen should always be matched with a big screen in terms of physical size for better experience.

                  lucian, 09 Sep 2010am i sure you never tried android or iOS.Here we go again!!

                  Am gonna ask you the same, have you tried Symbian^3? Im sure not because this is the first unit to have S^3 OS.

                  Were buying Nokia N8 not just for the OS but for the monster features it has.

                      lucian, 09 Sep 2010am i sure you never tried android or iOS.No, I didn't. Because I didn't found apps for call recording, for makeing black list for calls or sms. I have google it..no result. So, that's why I will buy Symbian; for its apps.

                                  Thats the only downside no LED flash for video recording. But still, im going to buy this monster.

                                        This is missing feature of the N8, too bad.
