man we were feeling better with less daily interest coz it meant less trolling... man really getiing sick n tired of these false n crap posts... just one thing i have to say to all bashers n haters... when samsung motorola n iphone can match reputation of nokia n can give customer support like nokia then open ur mouths n also when samsung motorola htc n ios reaches no1 in mobile phone industry then speak up ur nuisance till then u should be mumb!!! n in anyway these false posts hardly matters as reflected by the sales figure of n8 in less than 3months

piyush, 17 Jan 2011i recommend that don't buy this phone at any cost bcoz this phone is full of problems and sinc... morePff, I've had this since day 1 since I live in the city they made the European phones in and I know many other finns who have this phone and have had ZERO problems with it.
Sure, I also know a few who have had some issues with theirs, but warranty covers those things.
I've had zero issues with mine since the last day of september and I still wouldn't trade my N8 for any other phone out there.

i recommend that don't buy this phone at any cost bcoz this phone is full of problems and since the day the n8 was lauched and till the date today every user is facing some kind of problem with n8 .nokia is very irresponsible they already knewed that this set will have problems despite of that they released it just bcoz they were far back from iphone and androids from last 2 years so they want to come back with this handset but not manufactured properly so nokia this time u have lost ur more image that u build up..all n8 holder who r and were facing problems they were complaining that nokia servicing is horrible regarding this set they r making fools and not concentrating or bothering about customers problem they just give dates and dates but no good response so guys nokia sucks and is much far away from iphone4 samsung galaxy htc hd ,and now new motorolla atrix..giving 12 mp and usb on go does'nt mean that its best phone.so guys beware and don't buy until u r 100% sure confident about it.....

N8 User, 17 Jan 2011I have the Nokia N8 for a month now and it is by far the worst experience I've had with a noki... more1. I don't use wifi. I use data plan and it works fine.
2. I don't use Nokia's ovi browser. I use opera mobile. Its great!
3. Music widget never die on me nor give me any problem before.
4. The symbian homescreen is still so attractive to me. I like to put optimus prime as my first homescreen wallpaper and bumblebee as my second and leave the default theme wallpaper as my last homescreen. The overall design is just a delight to be look at.
5. N8 camera is just simply amazing!
6. I am not a gaming person. But you are rite, N8 is not bad for gaming.
7. The video and audio recording on N8 is also simply great!
8. OVI map is also a real great feature. Better than google map imo.

5 years is too much. By the end of 2011 nokia would have launched symbian 5. In 1 year this and all the latest phones will be outdated

N8 User, 17 Jan 2011I have the Nokia N8 for a month now and it is by far the worst experience I've had with a noki... morewifi signal problem. Wen i am at 5 m distance from my wifi router n8 doesn't lose signal. But at >10m it loses connection. My wifi router is only capable of transmitting upto 10m but my laptop can get signal upto 15 m. I think they use bigger antennas in laptops and not in mobiles as they have to conserve space. But n8 wifi works well within specified limits
Invalid server name: never experienced this problem on n8. My earlier phone n86 used to give this problem in poor network conditions
automatic connection problem. If you have set widgets offline and email sync to manual, it should not connect automatically. Download netqin guard and see what apps are online
set the access point in settings. Then it wont ask again. If it is asking it means you have more than 1 AP under internet destination
download swype for nokia from beta labs. It has a better qwerty
social is a beta software. It has been updated and is now bug free. But gravity is better

I have the Nokia N8 for a month now and it is by far the worst experience I've had with a nokia phone. I own 10 Nokia phones including the E70/72/75/90 and I can honestly say that compared to these the N8 S U C K S B A L L Z!
1. Nokia N8 crashes my WPA2 router. I will not put the router on WEP
2. Nokia N8 constantly loses WIFI connection.
3. Nokia N8 constantly gives "Invalid server name"
4. Nokia N8 constantly reconnects to known wifis eventhough you tell the damn thing not to. I had to delete homsecreens and e-mail accounts in order for it to stop. Before the N8 lovas come and shout, yes, wifi scan off, yes, manual, always ask, unticked e-mail days retrival, changed my destinations priority, set my widgets to offline, etc. I've followed to the letter steps on the official nokia board. I have to either delete the e-mail accounts or the known access points.
5. Nokia N8 connects on its own via 02 3.5G. It drains, yet again, the battery. I have to delete my provider settings to stop it from connecting.
6. Nokia N8 has a crap browser and e-mail client.
7. Nokia N8 needs theme animations off or you end up with 3 menus overlayed giving you a garbled image for a few seconds.
8. Nokia N8 has huge issues due to the OS. GPS app does not remember access point settings, camera menu always asks for an access point if you use geotagging.
9. Nokia N8 music widgets stops working sometimes. You need to reboot the phone.
10. Nokia N8 landscape qwerty sucks so badly it makes you cringe. Yes, you can put word prediction on but it still sucks. The layout is horrible. I can type faster when I use the T9 one!!
11. Nokia N8 social app is bad. Had to buy Gravity and I am using 1.50a for both twitter and facebook.
What does the N8 do well? PLAYING GAMES! THAT IS IT!
