well. i use N900 thats a great mini tab phone from nokia.stereo speaker works good but not too loud.The worst is no equalizer built in so when i play music trought stereo bluetooth is so flat and not so stereo output. N8 is single loudspeaker ,its average but loud enough,the earphone from N8 is same like from N900 ( means average earphone) but when i play music from N8 trough my stereo bluetooth,Wow...its so great,so stereo,clear,surround, never feel this on other phone or SE W series or 5800. so if u want great output music from N8 use better earphone from other brand like senheiser,sony,jbl,etc. i use stereo blutooth from motorola. works Greats.

AnonD-2562, 31 Mar 2011OMG!!
replacing defective units with defective units?? i'd better not buy it in that case.. b... moreThe link I gave you shows what a defective N8 looks like. The silver N8 has a reddish tint on the top half of the analog clock and that's the sign of the defect.
Nokia acknowledged the defect and it is real. The fanboys are still denying it and accusing the defect as fake in a desperate attempt to cover up the defect. The link I gave you is 82 pages long. You can read stories of people who have the defect and how unhappy they are. Nokia is currently short of the perfect screens to replace the defective ones and the majority of N8 users out there are not even aware of the defect.
The new link below is directly from Nokia. Read about the defect so you won't pick a defective unit. N8s with perfect screens are out there. Just look at the analog clock and pick another unit if you see anything reddish or purple on the clock.

Keep in mind that the fanboys will deny anything about the defect even though Nokia admitted the defect. Ignore them. They would rather have the public unaware and have them fall victim.
We are still on the 2nd batch and Nokia is silent on when the third batch will be out. Read the links I gave you and it will give you a better understanding on what's going on with the N8's purple screen defect.

nitesh, 31 Mar 2011guys pls help me.
I am unable to record videos in the dark because the flash light does not f... morehi nitesh.. the phone you are using has xenon flash that is used only in cameras and not normal LED flash that is used in camcorders. so the flash wont turn on for video. the flash is simply not meant for taking videos.. its only for professional shots and not videos!!
and there is no hack or software so dont bother it.. unlike the normal phones that has LED flash and take suckier photos, yours can take pro photos.. so cheers ^_^ you made a right choice.. led makes photos suck. xenon rocks for photos. and xenon is NOT for video camera. hope this is clear to you.

replacing defective units with defective units?? i'd better not buy it in that case.. but their service is quite good here.. thats what i felt as far as i am concerned. anyways you guys tell me NOT to pick any piece from the first two batches.. and take only the third or fourth batch right?
is there any month or code that describes which batch the phone was manufactured?
and how do i detect the tint?? that website is not mentioning is clearly.. is there any other issues that i must keep in mind? (other than sucking battery life :P )

You're the first one I read on the net to develop the issue instead of having it since day 1. Taking the purple screen test at maximum brightness will make the purple tint on the screen a bit hard to spot.

I think it's a software issue.. I've been using this phone since last five months... Earlier it was perfectly all right.. There was no purple tint issue... But after updating to pr 1.2 this problem appeared.. I think this problem can be solved by future updates... Cheers..

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..
