i'm not sure about this guys but i think this is software issue...i updated my fw to pr 1.2 and suddenly the problem persisted...i have lots of black and white picture in photos i have rihanna's good girl gone bad album art picture in black and white which is completely normal before..but now it appears to have the brown tint on parts where light and dark parts meets...it's is disturbing because it has affected the photos and videos..

i'm a c7 user and oh my god....i just notice today that i have that purple tint issue too..before when i was doing the analog screen test i wasn't able to see it..it wasn't visible before i'm sure..but when i was watching one music video in which i saw some patches of light purple and brown..i suspected and try the analog screen test again and now it's slightly visible...now i'm pissed off..i spent my hard earned money on something that is not worthy of it..i'm disappointed..

-is that some blue tint on the screen some hardware issue solved by Nokia??
... more-No. Nokia is currently replacing defective units with defective units.
-Both N8s from Finland and China are affected by the purple screen defect.
-Some of the first batch (units bought in early December) and 2nd batch are affected by the defect. It is best to inspect the screen at the point of sale and look for anything reddish or purple at the analog clock. That's the sign of a defective N8.
My link below shows what a defective N8 looks like.

The way you criticize, seems you really don't have an N8 phone. Because people whom really have an N8 will not open out like what you have posted here, because the video & photos of N8 on the web are different in actual experience.

Try not to use the zoom in/out button or try not to double tap the pictures/photos on the screen, use your 2 fingers (thumb & index fingers) & slide-out on to the touch screen to zoom in/out like in htc, iphone, sgs, or other touch screen phones.
About the web browser, you can download the UC browser in Ovi or Opera Mini 11, those are excellent web browser.
About the battery, your imagination is wild, N8 is not freezing at all, your friends are disappointing you about the N8 & your mind is programmed that in order for a phone to restart, you have to remove the battery. If and only if in case it freezes touch the power button about 8 seconds & the phone will restart, all phones have their own set or way of restarting.
Common Dude, you are not in the jungle anymore, discover your phone thoroughly first before you complain & post in any blog spot.
If you don't know try to ask questions first, instead of complaining.
