    I searched for Nokia N98 & got result for N8. There is no information about Nokia N800, N810 in GSMArena.

      Anonymous, 20 Jun 2010Symbian OS is meant to be good at memory management that's why Nokia does not add too much RAM... moreYou complain so much about ram.The ram on the N8 is just fine.Most people don't run so much ram consuming apps like you.
      This phone is not for you so don't buy it.We don't beg for Users.

        Anonymous, 20 Jun 2010What about the protection of the camera lens?? Is it having protection cover/shutter like N82 ?? Read the whole interview with Damian Dinning.

              Why is it that the iPhone4's secondary camera will make video calls in the USA, but, after all these years, Nokia's secondary camera cannot do so. Get with the program, Nokia. Americans wish to make video calls, too. Apparently the technology does exist in our airwaves.

                  Anonymous, 20 Jun 2010Lets compare USB N8 OTG Support Iphone 4 – Only via itunes Rep- N8 wins BLUETOOTH Ip... moreBy the way Google Maps on iphone needs data connection. Iphone is known for bad signal reception while Nokia gives best signal quality. Without network Google Maps is pretty useless. And if you are in Roaming, loading mapdata may charge even more than your phone.. In one video I saw that N8 gets instant Gps lock in only few seconds on latest ovi maps. I dont think Google maps is able to do this.
                  Memory Card support on N8 should be consider as pros because hd recording requires lots of memory. So you can easily buy a new memory card for every clip ( just like cd cassets). In Iphone you cant record any clip if you have already full your whole memory with tons of contents.

                    Anonymous, 20 Jun 2010Lets compare USB N8 OTG Support Iphone 4 – Only via itunes Rep- N8 wins BLUETOOTH Ip... moreLets compare

                    BLUETOOTH
                    Rep- N8
                    New devices with Bluetooth 3.0 will rise very soon.
                    Thus N8 have advantages over this.

                    Memory
                    Rep - N8.
                    Iphone do not support file transfer via bluetooth and do not have memory card slot, thus doing large file transfer at outdoor from phone to phone is impossible.

                    Maps –
                    Rep- My driver friends prefer OVI maps while driving.
                    Because OVI maps have voices guidance.. "Turn Left.. go straight... turn right" and its free!!!
                    Not sure about Iphone, maybe u can find the similar things but you have to pay.

                    Display
                    No comment on this. Personal preferences.
                    AMOLED however, save more battery. Which is a great news for me.

                    Tv-Out
                    HDMI is definitely a great Add On to me.

                    3G network
                    N8 – The fact is, N8 support more networks!

                    VideoCall
                    Rep- N8 WIN! Its not like everywhere u can get WIFI hot spot.
                    Thus Iphone Video Call is restricted by areas.
                    Thus, remember i saw some where that Iphone video call is also platform dependence. Which mean only Iphone 4 to Iphone 4. Not Iphone to Nokia or Samsung.
                    While N8 can make video call to all mobile which support video call over 3G or WIFI.

                    FM Radio –
                    What do u mean your N97 could only tune in to 3 stations? My N73 can tune into every radio stations.
                    It can also use the internet radio with my data plan.
                    However, not every radio stations have internet radio.
                    Thus again is N8 win! This is sooooo Obvious!
                    FM transmitter is also a great add on.
                    I can play my music in N8 at home with my stereo speaker radio, in my car...etc.

                    Your fact are not so fair i think.

                      wack, 20 Jun 2010iphone just introduced 3mp and now 5mp but its result is more good than 12mp.Better in term of what?
                      Details? sharpness? low light?
                      I don't think so..
                      Your statement is not convincing at all.
                      Please provide sample to support your statement. Thanks!

                        Nokia N8 – Bluetooth V3.0 with A2DP and File Transfer Support
                        Rep- Most devises are still on v2.1 so you will need to find something with v3.0 to get the benefit of this

                        Memory

                        Iphone – Old TFT technology
                        N8 – New AMOLED technology which saves battery
                        Rep- Arguable. sources that attended the launch were amazed by the it. Others even labelling it the best mobile screen they've ever seen we'll just have to wait on that one.
                        Flash Support
                        N8 – Flash Lite support
                        Iphone 4 – What, no flash support?
                        Rep-Most videos in flash are encoded in the newer H.264 format which can be accessed by safari
                        thousands of games in app store

                        N8 Wins though it all depends on what equipment you have at home no TV with HDMI then irrelevant.
                        3G network
                        N8 – Pentaband HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1700 / 2100 /1900
                        Iphone 4 – Quadband - HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100
                        Rep- Don't know where you got these but if you access iphone spec sheet you will find there's no difference here.

                        N8 - VGA videocall camera over 3G and Wifi
                        Iphone 4 - Yes, videocalling over WiFi only,

                        Iphone – Oops, no radio here
                        Rep- FM Radio, on my N97 I could only tune in to 3 stations where over 10 are available so to me it's a waste os space.
                        FM Transmitter not needed, every good sound system manufacturer adds connection for Apple products, some even use it as a selling point.

                        And some one said, only the camera is better. Get your facts right.
                        My Facts are right my friend.

                                Please do not compare a phone that is not out with phones that is already on the market.
                                Else, it is also not consider a fact.
