Dear friends,
I read so many things about this damn purple problem... I would say, it's pretty normal... It's a default thing about AMOLED technology.. What they say about 'Non Purple Perfect N8' are not true... (They're saying to upset everybody...! Because everybody has that thing in their mobiles so none of them will be happy... They'll think, 'I have the defective one... while some of others have the perfect ones...!')
You may check it by yourself... For certain Themes it's visible... For certain themes it's not... And what they say about it 'So ugly... can't even watch a movie...' is not true.. I have seen this purple thing in certain occasions when it comes to gray color parts of the screen... But I've never been bothered by it when watching a movie...
Honestly speaking, I didn't even realize this purple thing before people are commenting about it.. So for me, this is not really a fault.. This is a created fault to upset people...
So stop lying and upsetting N8 users... If you feel not ok of using your N8... Just sell it without harassing it...

Tried Nokia N8 with a USB mouse and USB Key board... It took only 3 seconds to identify the peripherals and then everything worked like a dream...! Keyboard inputs were so fast and instant though Mouse pointer movement was bit laggy... Anyway the experience was wonderful...
Here's what I can do... I can connect a USB keyboard with a Bluetooth mouse... (Both in the same time...) and Connect the mobile in to a HDMI TV or Projector... (If not available to a Normal TV Even...) and do almost anything that I can do in a computer... (Watching a Movie - the most frequent thing I do in my PC..., Editing a Word or excel file, Editing a video or photo, Surfing internet and sharing with my friends...) In a HD quality big screen...!
When I'm doing those using a mouse and a keyboard with a huge HDMI quality screen, everybody will wonder, 'Where is the damn computer....?'
Who would believe it's this tiny mobile device which does all....?

I own a N8 since jan 2011 and so far so good no freeze,no bugs, dont know why but the battery have improved a little by time now as today my bat. gets me 10.5 hrs of talk,8 hrs of wifi and 5 days of stand by all times r estimated, i recommend the N8, if ur not familiar with nokia this phone has a learning curve and is NOT AN IPHONE, dont judge this phone or other phones if u dont have them.

I will give Nokia a week to solve the screen problem. Next week if no solution at all I sell my N8 & I will not buy Nokia products anymore! Guys don't wait for the PR2.0 or PR3.0 its not true. Nokia will not release any updates. They are focusing in MeeGo & Windows7 phone, thats why they are busy. They will not prioritize the screen problems in N8 or it cannot be fixed anymore.

If you want lets swap our N8s, I will use ur N8 u use my N8, come here in Bahrain. You dont know how uncomfortable how unpleasant to have N8 with purplish reddish screen. I can not enjoy my videos. (Otherwise u r an employee of Nokia & you're trying to cover up the ass of Nokia for issuing such a defective product.) Did I complain anything? Nothing just the screen which one of the most important thing in a touch screen mobile computers. Common I'm waiting here in Bahrain lets swap our phones so that you'll prove it to ur self.

I have used as well android os phones(samsung galaxy and htc desire) but finally took decision to return Nokia. Now i very satisfied with Nokia N8. It easy to use and have very long lasting battery life time if we compar with android phones. As well camera and etc. I understand very well why people screaming android but for me here is no point. Phone is for make a calls, make a high quality pictures if you do not have real camera with. To change programs and download them all time it just a waste of time. Buy the Nokia N8 after them, if you have run trough android OS. iPhone is another case. It is very easy to use, have a very high quality construction, hardware and as well software and I like as well. So you have choise iPhone or Nokia N8. Thanks for attention!

yeah i agree, even nokia care they dont know how to fix reddish purple at screen display of n8, if you are die hard fanboy of nokia N8 sell your n8 with reddish and buy a new n8 with no defective display... My N8 got this also reddish purple its look worst watching movies,Widgets,Themes,qtorch app,Analogue cloch is affected of reddish purple... So Now Im disappointment screen display of my n8.. But performance of N8 like camera,hd games,usbotg,hdmi superb excellent.... Except the reddish purple always appear on my n8 screen display... :-(
And My Question To All N8 User Like Me,
Why some N8 No reddish purple? I prove it i check it @ Nokia Store Demo unit No Reddish purlpe display.
It Means Nokia Campany Used 2 LCD, One is a genuine Amoled, and the other one is cheap Amoled.. Same Price? difference performance screen display.. Its So Unfair, Nokia Pleased Fix this, And Answer this Issue...
