Kristy, 05 Aug 2010Hey Guys, Thinking of getting Nokia N8 only thing holding me back is that the processor is und... moreN8 preview videos made by nokia show a 2-3 sec delay when opening gallery and some other apps and noticeable page tearing (no v-sync) when scrolling. Most likely you won't be disappointed with its performance if you buy it, but it's definitely a bit slower than other phones on the market. nHD resolution and 680mhz cpu and a gpu is not high end anymore.

Screen resolution is 640x360?? Shame for you, Nokia! It was average level of 2008 year, but now is 2010, Nokia, check your clock!
You must forget about good experience with internet surfing on this device.

[deleted post]Let's hope Nokia includes that 8 sec power relay to turn the phone off. Because my old n95 doesn't have it. I had to get the battery out.

mohanarajan, 05 Aug 2010I am planning to buy N8. Will it really worth for buying... please suggest...If you're into photography & video - yes. It has the biggest CMOS sensor on smartphone market. But read some reviews first, you don't wanna buy another n97.

I think gsm arena is a lil bit samsung biased... Just look at their reviews.. They say wave is champion when it comes to battery backup yet all I see on wave forum are users complaining about low battery backup even after several cycle charges. whatever the negative coments about N8, I won't believe any of it unless I get my hands on one of this baby and find out for myself.

Jason - In today's competitive market, if a 4-year veteran Symbian user still terms this evolution something to "put up with" than this device is absolutely dead in the water. I use a variety of devices daily - iPhone, Droid, and Nokia n96 mini. Let's be honest - Nokia's software environment is by the far the least elegant and most glitchy of the lot. They are stuck on a rev base that is more appropriate to 5 years ago than today, and they are not adjusting quickly or effectively enough to what is going on in the market. Comparing Nokia to Apple OS is not even fair, its not in the same category. More importantly, comparing any version of Symbian as well as QT and Maepo to android - all of them fall short. And this, with Apple OS and Android being far from perfect.
Their hardware is great, although HTC is quickly catching up in terms of design. They should scrap Symbian and either start from scratch or release a modified version of Android OS. They deserve all the criticism they are getting - this is a company absolutely tonedeaf to its own slow self-destruction, which has continued to put out devices based on its 2002 product planning timeline, as if nothing in the industry has happened in the meantime.
