Guys N8 specs are really mind-blowing. But when you scrutinise the batteries under the microscope you will realise it's power horse is a downer. Don't rant about how AMOLED and supposedly optimised S^3 would safe your batteries coz those features may only give little help.
let's consider this:
Nokia N97 Mini has 1200mAh and so does n8. The former has 320(2g)/310(3g) and up to 7h10m(2g)/6h(3g) for stand by time and talk time respectively. Meanwhile N8's standby time is a bit better (390 for 2g and 400 for 3g), however, the phone's talk time (12h30m for 2g and 5h30m for 3g) is surprisingly shorter-especially on the 3g mode.
You should focus on the talk time here instead of the standby time; after all you always want to make your self look "busy" by playing with your phone. And taking into account how the manufacturer often exaggerate the phone specs you should expect the worse case scenario. Simply to put you might need to recharge every two days for moderate use. For comparison My 5800 can stand for about 3 days for constant abuse.
With a bit of conspiracy theory going on, i think nokia is struggling to slim down its touch phone line. To overcome this nokia may have opted to use a small battery. I know that this may sound absurd. but if you have read the interview with Damian Dinning, his responses on this matter are far from clear. Why on earth DESIGN overrules the battery location? the most reasonable explanation would be there was no room for improvement on the phone thickness. And remember the aluminium jacket can only be applied when everything is in place.
would i wait for N8? a quick answer nah. If you're a symbian hardcore better stay with your current phone and avoid the N8 bandwagon. N8 is nokia's layover before the firm push Meego and S^4 to the mass.

Other mobiles use highest memory upto 64gb. N8 can connet to 1tb hard disc by hdmi. Difference is noticeable.

All other new mobiles use android . But all them together cant be better than symbian. Other mobiles use 1 hardware for 1app. (in iphone bt for headset.etc) but symbian uses bt for mouse , connect to pc, headset, tv,synchronise to mobile and many more.

Nokia always makes new things. They discovered games in mobile to now hdmi. If iphone 4g had all specifications of n8 , it would cost double as it is now. Still n8 is cheaper than iphone also better quality.

I own an N82 and you're wrong in saying that the N82 is better than the Desire. Other than the Xenon camera, the N82 loses to the Desire in practically all other aspects.

N8 has external sim card slot. So it is fast enough to put all the settings whthout restart. All others have to restart. Hense n8 is faster than any other mobile.

Hi! friend told me about this site last night so today was my first time on here.
My brother gave my first nokia 12 + years ago. I am 2.5 years into my fourth model, the E65. I will NEVER touch an E series again. I am not tech savvy and I dont need the phone for business.
I have been looking for a new Nokia for 2 years. Wanted N95 then N97 came out and have been umming and ahhing FOR EVER.
This sight has been great in that it has listed more clearly some of the specifications.
I want a phone which will be like a mini computer and the N8 looks like having better HSDPA capabilities. As for unscrewing things, I'm a wiz at that and have no qualms in doing a little manual labour in the first six months until the phone settles. Which happened with my third phone and my first "smart phone" 5 years ago. (provided what people ASSUME is going to happen with freezing will happen)
I look forward to coming onto the site periodically to read reviews and opinions. If I have waited 2 years for a new phone I can wait another 2 to get the N8 at the price I want. Hope dont have to wait that long.

Need a REPLACEMENT, 12 Jun 2010I am planning to buy a new phone.
Currently I am using NOKIA E63 and I must tell you guys, ... moreA bit off-topic, but how are the BH-905 headphones in terms of Audio quality? Since bluetooth headphones are sometimes bad for having that hiss noise on the background. Are they unnoticable?? And are there any differences from using the wires and using bluetooth to listen to music with say a 5800XM??
Thanks, I'm really deciding hard on whether to get it or not.
And you should press the N8's power button for 8 seconds if it hangs. Like a laptop.
