trebphil, 29 Jan 2011thanks aaron, you really know your stuff. i went to a shop to buy this phone but what a big di... moreThat's horrible. The first N8 that I've got to test in the store is also the unit I bought. Luckily I didn't encounter any problem up until now. Why don't you canvass first on different stores before you buy? You should test first the unit intensively before you make your purchase. Don't mind how long it takes. Just scrutinize all the features and see if they are working perfectly fine. Problems will show immediately if the device is defective. You should also check if the phone's IMEI when you dial *#06# matches that in the sticker at the back of the phone. Check the lifetimer, *#92702689#, it should show all zeros. Software version when you dial *#0000# should be 011.012. Check the Photos app, there should be some preloaded nature wallpapers there. The Videos app should contain 3 Tron videos and 1 Dolby demo video. Just check the unit until you are satisfied. Good luck.

No video light
Camera interfac... moreHello!! Look at iphone 4 for example what can shitty Led can do in low light(juz can give shitty quality), I thought those problems are of iphone 4 not from N8,I think those problematic staffs are like from andoid fans and iphone fans who can't stand the success of Nokia.
N8 camera mode......?? why? it has the best camera and its modes are ok who the hell tells that decidedly outdated? Come on! there's no even dedicated key for camera in iphone4.

Again to him, his lucky to have the original one because he had only couple of days left till he gets back to his hometown . . try to imagine if your like him but end up having a defective one till you get back, IT WILL BE SAID I TELL YOU And that is why we have many trollers out here in this forum bashing N8 is a white flag to all the top phones now days because they end up being the disapointing one

Aaron, 29 Jan 2011Yes. There are 5 pre-installed themes which match the 5 individual colors of N8, dark, silver,... morethanks aaron, you really know your stuff. i went to a shop to buy this phone but what a big disappointment! when i tested the camera, after it shoots, it hangs. i tried it twice but got the same response from the phone. i went to the photo icon to see if the picture i've taken is there but the screen suddenly turned itself off, also happened twice. i went out of the store immediately. i don't know why that stupid store sells defective n8 unit. i still like n8 and want to have one but i'm worried what if the unit i bought would show defects after a while? i have great expectations for the phone but after this happened i'm confused. any comments or advise? thanks

Symbian's user interface is the one outdated not the operating system itself. You don't call the only operating system so far that can multitask heavily, can connect to most number of devices in the most number of ways, can output 720p on tv, has their own great and free mapping solution and is already 4G-ready, among others, outdated.
