if you can afford an N8, go ahead and buy it, it's that simple. No more my processor is faster than yours, my browser eats less data bull crap. it all just a matter of personal taste. same thing with a samsung or an iphone, if you can afford it, then buy it, stop postin' nonsense on this site.

      hani, 30 May 2010no hdmi output no usb otg 4 years old outdated camera small screen size no hd video output no ... moreYou forgot to mention that touch wiz sucks and wave looks ugly.. Also it have only total one thousand message storage (with inbox, sentbox and draft). Maximum outgoing Mms size only 295 kb ( I used to send Multimedia messages to friends, because its looks like presentation, you can add music in background, a photo and your message in one). By the way what is the build quality of Samsung Wave..

        [deleted post]Have you ever tried to use the web browser on the phone with 360x640 resolution and then goes to the same web page with another device that have 480x854 in resolution with the same screen size?.

        If you don't see any difference there, your totally blind.

And also a normally eye can only see upto 220 ppi. But if you will concentrate on a object on the display for more than 60 seconds then the human eye can see upto 300 ppi..

                [deleted post]in gaming the more the resolution the better the graphics with less use of antialiasing technique,also i found this on the link you gave:
                It has been observed that the unaided human eye can generally not differentiate detail beyond 300 PPI; however, this figure depends both on the distance between viewer and image, and viewer's visual acuity. Modern displays having upwards of 300 PPI pixel densities, combined with their non-reflective, bright, evenly lit and interactive display areas, may have vastly more appeal to users than the best prints available on paper.
                so this means that the eye can differentiate between 200 ppi and 300ppi

                      N8 have got good design I beleive. Initially I didn't like it but later I started liking it more because I can assume design is such that I could handle it very comfortably specially in landscape along with it has a overall trendy and unique feel.

N8 looks sexy than most of the Samsung phones. Even the color choice makes it more beautiful.. Also the dark grey one looks so stylish and better than black color of Wave or Galaxy S. In my opinion Nokia should make more phones with dark grey color choice. Wave look ugly. Only x10 looks more beautiful than N8.

                          hani, 30 May 2010its some lamers used some kind of program to change their ip and they vote over 2000 votes 1 1... morethis is the same thing that happened with samsung wave after it became the 1st in the ranking.
                          but any way you can't take the voting seriously because as there is who gives 1 1 1 there is another gives 10 10 10.
                          and i think only the blind would give 9 for n8 design.

Some looser know that his favourite brand dont have such good phone, so he voted negatively against N8. Well but I was also amazed by his voting speed. That time N8 was recieving about 30 votes per minute.

                                    Today I come to know a interesting fact..
                                    Human eye can only see upto 200 ppi (pixel per inch). A normal human eye cant see difference between 200ppi and 300ppi. Pictures in both type of display in same contrast and brightness will look same.. See this
                                    http://theiphonefever.blogspot.com/
                                    While N8 has 209 ppi display ( ppi also known as dots per inch aka dpi). See this http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_displays_by_pixel_density
                                    here ppi of N8 has not mentioned but N97. Since N97 and N8 both have nHD on 3.5" so N97 = N8 = 209ppi
                                    .
                                    So its pretty clear that extra resolution is just waste of pixels since you cant difference between 200ppi and more ppi display.
                                    So I think nHD on N8 will not be consider as cons of this phone. Only extra resolution might be useful on webbrowser but since you cant clearly see the content on 480 x 800 pixels in 4" without zooming in. So display resolution is not a cons.
