Is the N8 simple to use as a phone? Because let's not forget that after all IT IS A PHONE. How easy is it for example to send a SMS without a keyboard? Is the menu as simple as the one used by the rest of the NOKIA phones?

So which specific brand/model are you trying to compare with the Nokia N8 anyway?

The n8s camera does not use sharpning and noise reduction so it sure should resolve much more detail than any other snapper out there.

                    "The resolved detail is excellent, perhaps the best we’ve seen so far among the 720p competition." That's why :)
                    It's about contrast, the noise levels and fps.

                        So i think some people are online,

                        To clear things, divx is not supported natively by early symbian devices. But there are third party applications available and so, i can play the format whenever i want on any of my previous nokia phones. I don't really understand the hype about it that it can even affect some people whether to buy a phone or not. That's just my opinion.

                        Symbian 3 however has native support for divx, i think?

                          Yes, N8 is the hottest phone from Nokia and the best phone from them if we compare it only with other nokia models.
                          That's my opinion; and the reality.

                              We just have to wait N8 to hit the market.

                                This is from mobile review forum!
                                "anyways, i just saw the N8 at a Nokia store and was playing with it for a bit, while i was looking forward to the N8, i was left disappointed. Symbian touch is done guys, its extremely outdated, it's the same UI we been using for the past couple of years, i was also surprised that it was a bit slow, no where near as fast as my iPhone 4 and Galaxy S. can't comment on the camera cuz it wouldn't start, but then again i dont doubt nokia's cameras, they're always been some of the best out there. i did a bit of typing and i found the myself making tons of typos, even with predict on.

                                don't mean to slam the phone, but that was my short 5 minute impression, i hope things change by the time it hits stores.

                                for now i would say had this come out 2 years ago it would have had a better chance. i don't see what the N8 has that the competition doesn't.

                                better luck with "MeeGo" Nokia, symbian is dead!"

                                  Bigger CPU: better, faster user interface.
                                  Bigger resolution: U can navigate the web better. If you zoom a picture for ex., you will see the diference between screens resolution.
                                  See the result, not only the specs!

                                    The Nokia N8 is the phone that will be Very Important at Nokia,if the N8 fails like the N97,The President at Nokia will lose is Position an is Production Team down the Road as Well,so the N8 might the Phone that sorts things out at Nokia,thats Why? people can tell they have been Frightened of Releasing the N8 to Early,Nokia should have had the Symbian3 ready before they decide to Design an Produced the N8,but they always are to Slow on its Important mobiles,it Top Smartphones,an thats the Market they need to Get back on Track with the others,"E" series mobiles are looking more important at Nokia nowdays,an with the E7 being released soon,the mobile that looks like the N8 with the Querty keypad on it might deter people rushing in buying the N8,just hope things are sorted out Nokia as 2010 as been a very bad year for Nokia up till now

Bigger processors and exponentially short battery life packaged complete with screens they can't read in sunlight? Thats what regular users prefer? Well then maybe regular users shouldn't buy the n8.
