If you are active, and you don't want to think about how and where you leave your phone, or how to keep it with you while running/biking.. then the N8 is the clear choice. Not even going to mention the superior camera.

If you want a toy to play games on, and watch movies.. the GS2 is your phone.

Karl, 24 Jan 2012Hi everybody i'm planning to buy a new phone and i like the Nokia N8 and The Nokia 701 i... moreOverall, the 701 is a better phone. These are the specs.

Processor
--------
N8: 680MHz
701: 1GHz


RAM
----
N8: 256Mb
701: 512Mb

Screen/Resolution
------------------
N8: 3.5'' AMOLED Gorilla Glass / 640x360
701: 3.5'' AMOLED IPS / 640x360
NB: N8 has Gorilla Glass (scratch resistant)while 701 is IPS - InPlane Switching. 701 has brighter screen but nt scratch resistant.


Camera
--------
N8: 12MP Carl Zeiss Autofocus with Xenon Flash
701: 8MP Fixed Focus Dual LED Flash


OS
---
N8: Symbian Anna
701: Symbian Belle
NB: Belle is more recent but N8 will be upgradeable to Belle very soon.


So N8 has better camera but that's about it. I'll advise you go for 701 mostly because of the faster processor and more RAM.

@ Pratip.

This sounds like the memory location where your photos are stored (either E: Mass storage or F: SD card) has become corrupted. This can happen when the phone is connected to a PC in Mass storage mode and is removed without first using the "Safely remove hardware" feature in Windows. You'll most likely need to perform a *#7370# reset to reformat the E: drive (if that's where the pictures were stored) or just simply re-format the SD card if they were stored on there, without the need for a *#7370# reset.

Ray.

Dear N8 lovers, i too love my N8. Most of you worried about hanging. While hanging, all told abt going for hard reset by pressing 4 keys simultsneously.No need. My N8 also rarely hanged ,tat time i pressed both POWER KEY &MENU KEY few seconds for restart.simple method without loosing anything. Plz post feedbacks. Regards, Imayam,TAMIL NADU

@ bob@ph

Hello there,

Firstly, to delete applications from your phone you can either go to Settings > Application manager > Installed apps and scroll down to the one/s you want to remove. Hold your finger on the app until a pop-up menus appears and tap uninstall. Alternatively, go to your applications folder and press Options > Edit then the screen will change to a grid view. Hold your finger on the app you want to remove until a pop-up appears and tap Delete. When you've finished press Done at the bottom to return to normal view.

If you need to delete files from C:, E: or F: (if you have an SD card installed) use the phones file manager to locate them and once again hold your finger over the file until the pop-up menu appears and selct delete.

Now, moving onto the Belle update. Have a read of the following website to see if the update is for you.

All the best.

@ Enrique

Those who have upgraded their N8's to Belle have flashed their phones with a leaked unofficial version of Belle. You can try the same if you really want to, or wait for the official update due in February.
