The purple screen issue only affects the clock screen saver for gods sake. It doesn't even show in the photo gallerry and other places with loads of black like a black theme. You surely can't expect nokia to check every single aspect of every single phone before shipping. How much do the phones cost? They probably just switch on, bluetooth, wireless, battery, switch off. The error must have occurred in the manufacture on the displays themselves.

      Anonymous, 13 Mar 2011So what we will do now just keep quiet & enjoy the defects that was not came from the cust... morewhy dont u chill for a minute and think about what i said in the first place. i only said that the hardware design was never that bad.

      defects has nothing to do with hardware design as far as i am concerned. defects are pretty much manufacturing error. whatever happens during or after a phone is assembled has nothing to do with its design. maybe nokia did fail with their quality testing but that was never my point in the first place. i was solely referring to their hardware design.

      as for the mishandling of shipment, i have no idea if thats what really happened. i was imply throwing that in as an example. i used it because whatever one phone experienced during a shipment was probably experienced by the others along with it. and since they usually ship in bulk, it might have affected a few hundreds or thousands which pretty much represents most of the people complaining. remember, only a fraction of consumers complain like you online so i think thats a pretty good estimate.

      and lastly, i never said that you should stop complaining. heck if i were you id be calling customer service every day to get my replacement.ive had my n8 since october or november and i never had problems whatsover (besides a few lag every now and then....). considering im a uni student with no money i feel for you because id be very mad as well if i spent that much money and end up getting a defective unit.

          The nokia N8 is such a bad phone. I have only had it for about one month and i have had to take it back three times. The camera on it is awesome and also the music player is good, but the software on it is so slow. Does anyone have an suggestions on what phone i should get, apart from the nokia N8.

            GSM Arena, you are simply the best!!!

            Can I ask some questions? Can somebody teach me how to automatically read the latest posts/comments in here without refreshing the blog spot from time to time? Same as after posting a comment? Thanks in advance!

                Where are you now? You didn't add me? Because you are afraid to face the truth. And don't accuse me that I am copying from others because I will use the camera of my laptop to show to you LIVE that I am using a defective N8 with the IMEI# on it. Shame on you!!!

                    ralphie02, 13 Mar 2011i guess gsmarena didnt approve of my previous comment, so lame...anyway, the point that im try... moreSo what we will do now just keep quiet & enjoy the defects that was not came from the customers side? What ever the reasons are, what ever the explanations are, we don't care JUST REPLACE it with the non-defect units. We are paying for the heavy duty quality phones, not the defects. This is what the Nokia is trying to prove in the world that they are the heavy-duty-hardware phone manufacturer in the world. Where is that crown now? In Software Nokia failed, don't tell me in Hardware Nokia failed also?

                        Waste of money, don't you guys have something better to do with your money or donate it to charity. South Africans stop waisting your money. Nokia you are the best but hey very expensive

                          So far Nokia has been the best am loyal to Nokia but when it comes to N8 there is lots of fong kongs here in South Africa we don't know which one is fake and which is original. The purple screen is a huge proble five of my friends have the same probllem. Nokia please take care of your customers don'y ignore our problems.

                            complaint/request/reference number.....

                            Because, as many times we
                            remind them about this
                            purple issue, they will be
                            back in action knowing that
                            customer's are very much

                              So my laptop kicked the bucket. Good thing I have important files backed up on flash drive. But whats the use if I need them now and have no other pc? Hmm. wait...wait...my N8 has usb on the go! And to think some say this is a useless feature. My N8 saved the day. Know of any iphone or android that does this?
