Anonymous, 04 May 2011hi guys! would like to ask if this phone has an answering machine in case you cannot answer it... moreYes, the N8 has voice mail function, as do all mobile phones today. You will need to activate the feature with your network provider though as it is a service provided by the networks and is usually chargeable.

ABC123, 04 May 2011You people seem to know a lot. I am undecided between the Galaxy and the N8??? Which one shoul... moreI own both the N8 and the SGS.
The N8 is a solidly built phone with HDMI out, USB on the go and a 12 Mega pixel camera with Xenon flash. It also comes with 16 GB of internal storage ( there is also a 32 GB version available ) plus an SD slot for a further 32 GB of storage.
However, it runs on Symbian OS which will be discontinued by the start of next year when the new Nokia / WP7 phones are released. Nokia have promised to continue support for Symbian for the next 18 months to 2 years. Symbian Anna ( formerly known as PR 2.0 ) will start rolling out over the next couple of months or so, and there are rumours of a PR 3.0 being released too by the end of the year.
The SGS is a decent enough Android phone and is very fast and responsive when updated to 2.2.1. The screen is nice and big at 4" and colour reproduction is crisp and vibrant.
There is the promise of Gingerbread being released for the SGS quite soon ( it was actually released at the end of April, but was pulled by Google on the same day ), but that will probably be the last update the SGS will get.
So, if you are looking for a solid phone with a brilliant camera and are not really bothered about " apps " then go for the N8.
If you want a phone with plenty of " apps " then the SGS is for you.
Hope that helps.

Does anyone knows if the SDHC type of memory cards works with the N8? I do not want to buy one and to discover that will not work.
Thanks for your help!

AnonD-6098, 03 May 2011I personally advice you to buy the Nokia N8 which is the
best smartphone I've seen till now. I do not think you can see
Nokia has the lowest specs in the market so buying it proves you can't see well in this market
SGSII is the choice

Hi guys I've been using N8 since November last year,No big problem so far,yes it got hang sometimes and and a bit slow. But i don't care coz i love my N8,performance is good even after my N8 hit the ground several times and yes it's solid ground. Camera as i expected is awesome some of my friends are using my N8 to take picture and i just can't believe how they laughin at N8 and call it an ancient phone and proud of they Iphone or android phone. Well for me N8 isn't perfect but hey there is nothing perfect,i just love N8 with all it's goodnes and can handle some of it's bad side. Hopefully the next PR update can fix some issues and can't wait for the portrait keyboard and improved browser. Cheers...
