    i think NOKIA cares for average joe and yes 370euro is something most of the people can afford. And i think if nokia really wanted to make a flagship they would have put 1ghz, keyboard,meego..etc but think again my friends the price would have been 550euro+.
    Think again on this my friends.
    All the best choosing your next phone!!!!

        Tom-Helge never stops with his trolling. I recommend you report his posts, so the mods can delete them.

            goron goron, 05 Jun 2010nokia N8 is not nokia next flagship.its design to fill the gap between n900 and 5800xm family.... moreN8 is Nokias next FLAGSHIP Device


            MeeGo Q&A with Alberto Torres, Nokia EVP, MeeGo Computers at #openmobile

            J: Will MeeGo claim the high end for Nokia, because at the moment Symbian is the one thatclaiming the high end, Symbian (phone) is the one that’s regarded as the flagship, e.g. N97 is called the flagship even though N900 has more power. Will the flagship now when MeeGo phone is released, will the flagship title be given to the MeeGo phone

            AT: The intent is to build the flagship product on MeeGo. But I mean of course in the mean time we have a lot of really good products coming out on Symbian. And certainly the N8 will be our flagship in the next few months. But I think it’s very much clear that MeeGo has the potential of creating something that’s deeper than you find on a typical smartphone.

                Various, 05 Jun 2010Right. Then it should be a Real Nokia flagship.nokia N8 is not nokia next flagship.its design to fill the gap between n900 and 5800xm family.
                thats why they planning to sell it for 370+tax.
                if u want to compare this phone fairly,then compare it with other phone in the same price tag.like samsung wave.
                im planning to buy it,but if it sell for 450++ i will stay with my old gadget.
                dont forget no android comes with TV-out yet,and it is very rare to find one with radio and front cam for video call.and usb OTG,capacitive screen but able to do the handwriting.some N8 ability is very rare among the smartphone and the price still feel right if under $450

                  designers seems to be deeply thought about colouring patterns on N8. here is one interesting article appeared on official nokia blog.

                            Mar, 05 Jun 2010Actually, the ARM 11 in the N8 is underclocked, and can most likely be sped up to 1Ghz. Via fi... moremay ask a proof that arm11 can be stably overclocked to 1gzh, I want this phone too but considering it's CPU, I'm just a little bitsy worried. I got N81 before and surprisingly I was satisfied with its voice call quality, music player and all around sms/mms gadget. and then I bought galaxy spica a month ago bcoz its quite cheap mid range phone w/ eclair, well It got snatched few days ago, I'm worried though about the money value not the phone itself, now I'm opting to have HTC desire or N8, they may cost the same, HTC desire around 550 USD and N8 might cost 500 USD too. if it's true that N8 has a potential to exceed its current setting then I'll go with it if it's not, i'll just go with the flow of 1GzH snapdragon hype phones.

The touch pen can be used to reset the device without opening the battery cover...The mobiles are provided the slots where the reset button is hidden.

                                  I'm not so comfortable with the battery cover that needs to be screwed.I hope there is a forceful shutdown in case of a freeze so the only thing that will make me open it, is if the battery is bad. The battery is expected to last for 3years at least, I can live with that.

I myself prefer Android but i will tell my sister who is looking for an upgrade from her N78 about this device. i am not sure if she like the other features but i am sure she will like the camera as she likes taking photos but does not have a good camera like i do. may i ask, how is the sensitivity of the touchscreen, how fast is the web browsing n does this phone lag like most of the other symbian devices do? example: n97, n78, n79, x6, 5800 xm, n many more.

                                        Thanks for your polite post, I think the N97 is one of Nokia's worst devices ever. I agree the HTC device you have now is better. I also think the N8 is much better value for money than any android device out there now, even the best value of any phone.

                                        So while I agree, the N97 was terrible, I think the N8 will be fantastic. Really awesome. Please check out this link for a summary of why the N8 will not be the next N97, but a fantastic device:

                                        I would recommend anyone that is remotely interested to wait until it comes out, load it with Need for Speed Shift, then compare to any other device. Take an image, then compare to any other device. See for yourself, but I think you will be pleased.
