Anonymous, 16 Jul 2010N8 is the first phone ever to have a class 33 EDGE. That's 330 kilobytes/sec..... One word....... more330 kilobits, not bytes. Who needs Edge when you have HSDPA!

How does this sound. Take a look at the Samsung Galaxy BEAM. 65dD loudspeakers, 800X480, WiFI b,g,N, BT3.0 A2DP, USB2.0, 3.7" SAMOLED, handwriting Multi touch capacitive input, 512Mb ROM, 384Mb RAM, stylus, 16Gb Internal storage, MicroSD 32Gb, FM Radio receiver, 1280x720P @ 30FPS, FM recording, WiFI AP, PICO projector, 1800MAH battery sound, 800MHz, Android 2.1+? Lots of apps. Mp3, aac, aac+, e-aac+, wma, wav, Mp4, H.263, H.264, DivX, XviD, MIDP 2.0, Flash.
Nokia advantages over Samsung. 12Mp Camera, 1280x720P @ 25FPS, which has better GPU N8 or BEAM?, USB 2.0 OTG, BT3.0 A2DP, 640X360, WiFi b,g,N, 3.5" AMOLED, capacitive multi touch input, 512Mb ROM, 256Mb RAM, WiFI AP, 16Gb Internal Sotrage, MicroSD 32Gb, Fm Radio receiver, Fm Transmitter, 1280MAH, 680MHz, S^3, Pretty good amount apps, Mp3, aac, aac+, e-aac+, wma, wav, Mp4, H.263, H.264, DivX, XviD, MIDP 2.1, Flash, dlna, WiFi tethering.
There are lots of factors to consider here. The fact that the N8 is built to capture high resolution images & the lens will also determine the captured video pixels quality probably being the N8, GPU may be more powerful on N8 also, but premium playback experience may go to the BEAM, samsung does make pretty decent imaging devices so it's a big technicality difference between hardware interfacing & software interfacing, BIG difference.
BEAM has a few extra qualities which I liked on my 5800 & a few qualities that I would love to upgrade to over the N8 inc... such as Quality Loudspeakers, SAMOLED, Handwriting, Stylus input pointing device, 3.7" screen, Wifi N, tethering, WiFi AP, DLNA, Fm receiver, FM recording, TV services, good flash support, high res screen.
But there are N8 qualities which could do with being ported over to the BEAM. Well you can't have everything. It's down to individual review before make mind up time. Noting the 384Mb RAM on the BEAM means plenty of free memory for applications since a lot of Android apps are particularly small.
Well, what says everybody, they both have the same capabilities within the media playback zone. The N8 having a poorer loudspeakers, but decent sound through headphones like the BEAM. Well shouldn't be long before BEAM is released but now that the N8 has been pushed back towards October release. So it's going to be a while before you can make a judgement, for sure by that time the BEAM will either be great or a dissapointment.
Nokia being very good with customer support, software update & patching is peace of mind on product support. Samsung used to be a bit patchy but they are promising some changes to some areas of their service. Ah well, let's see. Tomorrow onwards & latest vids of samsung look impressive indeed though.

Jade, 16 Jul 2010I hope they fix the "Memory Full Error " !
I hate it when open apps and must close ... moreWhen u get "the memory full error" in symbian devices, install any third party file manager software(Y-Browser, X-plore). Goto C:\cache and delete all the cache files.
Sadly(for us) s60 browsers doesn't delete cache properly from the browser itself. I recovered 50mbs from a friends old N95 8g, and he's back to enjoying his old phone.
