Rebel, 03 Jun 2010Now yours is one hella funny post. Symbian doesn't need a very fast processor to run smoot... moreWhen they use hardware in the Nokia N8 that was already outdated in Q2 2009, yep, they don't know what they are doing when it's about making a high-end phone.

They can't call the phone for high-end then.

Anyways, enjoy this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJpEuMidcSU&feature=player_embedded

Lets see how smooth the Nokia N8 is really getting in the real world after it's released.

    You can't say that because of the GPU the CPU in the Nokia N8 will be like a 900 MHz CPU ROFL." y the number 900? of course nokia can't ever reach ur x10 magical 1ghz right? (sarcastically)

        [deleted post]snap dragon 1ghz has to take care of the UI smoothness and process programs IN THE SAME time

        the 680mhz in the N8 only has to process programs... not to mention that the Symbain is already a lighter OS... 680mhz isnt slow either... ontop of all of that, you can overclock it to 840mhz easy.. using patches or maybe new firmwares by Nokia..

        N8= more flexibility

                          I think the interest and the public perception is higher for the N8.

                            android is not the best yet.u can look into every android phone in gsmarena and u will find it the fact that android mobile phone doesnt support TV-OUT.
                            and it is very rare to find one with radio,or FM transm
                            TV-out is HW not OS.u cant fix it with update or later future OS.
                            so android phone is not the best yet.
                            the X10 tom very adore comes with no TV-OUT and radio.
                            if u want to make it work with tv u will have to buy another device like the bluetooth media sharing and it will cost u around $100.
                            N8 is not a highend phone from nokia its target for the people who willing to spend $350 - $450 for a phone.and if u can see the posibility for using this device as an all around device than it will be gud 4 u.
                            X10 or samsung GS is highend device,N8 is not.until now nokia still dont have any highend device for touchphone arena.
                            N8 will battle with samsung wave.
                            so it is not fair to compare X10 with N8.
                            the 1200 battery is enough,bcause N8 using amoled screen so it will save u some juice than the X10 TFT screen.dont forget that N8 have GPU so the CPU will not stress out to run the phone.
                            tom X10 may be have a better GPU but it will be useless if u can't plug it into TV or projector for presentation.
                            or u tom prefere to have a presentation using ur 4inch screen?
                            so until today im still thinking that N8 will be the best buy,dont worry bout speed u can be sure it is fast cause N8 capable to handle 15apps open.
                            sym 3 have swapfile system like windows virtual memory.
                            after many research im not really interesting with other phone this year.but N8 sure to pack alot of stuff and when nokia decided the N8 will sell for 370+tax it is feel fair enough for my wallet.
                            -tvout will make ur phone a walking home teater
                            -dolby sound?just plugin to ur homesound system
                            -a ready device for presentation at office anytime
                            -yes u still have that old radio so u can update news on the street around u.
                            -1200mh battery its oke u have amoled screen not the TFT hungry of battery juice.
                            -its a capasitive touchscreen but it has support for handwriting recognition,so it has a cap stylus,i think we can still be able to draw just like in resitive handset.
                            -dont forget u will have USB OTG with N8.
                            i think with so many new features and some features that u will not found in other phone,and dont forget the price is oke for common people wallet,yes nokia N8 will sell like peanuts.
                            dont listen to android user they dont have TV-out or HDMI.all they can boast is bout snapdragon things.yes a fast CPU but only for 4inch screen only?
                            with N8 low clock CPU and 3,5inch screen u can transfer picture to big TV screen.
                            so compare the capability carefully before u choose ur next future phone.
                            dont listen to the haters club.im not really like nokia,im not SE enemy,or motorola,samsung,HTC,apple hater.
                            im just a common phone user.
                            i dont take side,because i love all gadget specially for the one that resemble MacGyver swiss knife.N8 and samsung wave is the answer.

                              Correction on something i said longer down here.

                              I said this: Have you ever heard about that the programs and games you are going to run requires a fast CPU to load?.

                              It should be this: Have you ever heard about that the programs and games you are going to run requires a fast CPU to load very fast?.

                                  You can't say that because of the GPU the CPU in the Nokia N8 will be like a 900 MHz CPU ROFL.

                                  Because, how in the name of jesus are the GPU gonna make your programs to start / load faster?.

                                  That's impossible. Simple as that.

                                  Explain that to me mister smartypants.

                                        Ying, 03 Jun 2010"...peoples want a 1 GHz Snapdragon CPU because it gives you a very fast mobile device.&q... moreAnd you goes on with the rabble rabble that as long the OS goes fast, then everything is fine.

                                        Have you ever heard about that the programs and games you are going to run requires a fast CPU to load?.

                                        This is like saying, yeah, lets buy a computer with a Pentium 4 CPU and 128 MB RAM today only because it runs Windows XP fast and good LOL.

                                        Does the rest of your programs and games goes as fast as the OS then?.

                                        No they wont, and it's not even close to bto be as fast.
