Banda, 28 May 2011Every other feature in the specifications on this mobile are very good, but has some hitches l... moreLemme answer your questions one by one.

1. Purple Tint: It is basically a software problem by PR 1.2 and you will find it isn't there in PR 1.1 (first version of N8. Hopefully it will be removed in PR 2.0 (ANNA).

2. Non-removeable battery: I ask the same questions to everyone, when iPhone started it with non-removeable battery, you go all "oooh"s and "aaah"s with it. But the same thing in N8 disturbs you. Why? If the battery is not causing you any problem, why do you want to remove it? Do you eat batteries? It is made for the phone and it should remain there.

3. Cost too high: High??? Really??? I thought the cost is cheaper than the spec it carries. Do you know that C7 has only 8GB internal memory & 8MP EDoF camera whereas you are getting 16GB internal memory & 12MP AF camera in N8? And look at the design & build quality? Yet if it seems pricey, why don't you buy C7 - which is made for people like you who can't see good things in a beauty?

There are a lot of options out there. Not everyone likes the same thing. If you don't like N8, just go for something else. Even Samsung cannot effort to provide this kind of spec sheet with N8's price. So, just "puff", vanish, dissappear wherever you came from.

    It's been a while I last visited this page. Now that you have to register to write in N8's blog, the trollers have fled away. It's a good thing that you don't hear many complains that you used to hear before. That proves that N8 is a good phone.

    All the phones in the world will have some of the defective sets, that doesn't make each and every set defective. But the ration of defetive sets should be below 0.01% and that is truely the case with N8 as well.

    Anyway, nice seeing the troll-free N8 blog. Take care.

      I like Nokia N8 that is O.K. for me. I have experienced in Nokia 3250, Nokia N73,N95, N96, N97. N8 is O.K. if you make more louder in speaker for ring tone volume and width will be increased from 5.2 cm to 5.9 cm and also put more software. I am satisfied with your camera 12mp. I would like to suggest you for the market of Myanmar( Burma ), your Nokia brands are almost counterfeit that is no good for future and you will consider for your market in Myanmar.You should open the wide market with your licenced dealers.

      Thanks.

        Is there an emulator of gameboy advance for the N8? I hope someone could code that emulator because N8 will be a great system to host that kind of emulator.

            Instead of switching to windows mobile, nokia should switch to android to give tough competition to samsung and iphone..... Android z the only platform which kills windows, iOS and symbian..... Samsung is now the biggest rival of nokia and the way it is producing its android phone,,, it seems that soon it will climb up to top..... If nokis has to maintain its position than they had to seriously think of producing android devices......

                          hello all u sobbing babies. i've been using my nokia N8 for like 2 months, never has it once crash or hang. if it does all u have to do is hold the power button for like 7 to 9 sec and it'll reboot. yeah symbian^3 is not like android, iOS, or windows phone, but i think that after it gets the PR3.0 Belle update it will rock. it is slow at times, when u wanna move to application it like takes 4ever to do so, but all in all i like it plenty. it has great picture quality n camerapro v2 boost it even more. only draw back no more HD games are being made yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy?

                            When you initially start the phone, it asks for the language. You might have selected english at that time. But you can change the language settings in the phone settings.
