using N-8 for one week. excellent camera with nice responsive screen. Never hanged till I installed Swype (from ovi store) .didnot restart till I tried to use speed dial. I was using Omnia HD till date ( I purchased because of symbians, but online support by samsung is totally disappointing). N8 is real value for money.
If anyone can help regarding restart issue while using speed dial please help.
What is the use of lakhs of applications in i0S, android or bada if basic applications like auto call recorderis not available till date ?
SAMSUNG has announce to stop symbians support from Dec2010 and still my 5 months warranty is left !
article on net talk about March 2010 software update
but on trying sansung PC suite, it says no update avilable. could not try HX V-8 to avoid breaking warranty.
28 K phone,no updates,not even supporting full symbian applicating.What is gaurantee that Samsung will give support for Wave(Bada)or galaxy (android) in which 2.2 upgade is still a issue ( in launched sets.)
I WILL NEVER BUY SAMSUNG AGAIN, WHAT IS USE OF 3.7"AMOLED SCREEN IF COMPANY DOES NOT SUPPORT IN WARRANTY PERIOD ?

nokia n8 vs samsung(wave,galaxy s)


amoled vs Super AMOLED (The thickness of the touch sensor is just 0.001mm (!) this allows the screen to provide better images and to have great visibility even in direct sunlight (Samsung says that they perform 20% better than regular touch AMOLED outdoors). Super-AMOLEDs also have better lifetime than regular AMOLED and are very responsive to touch - even better than the iPhone's display)



360 x 640 pixels vs 480 x 800 pixels


nothing vs DNSe (Digital Natural Sound Engine)


nothing vs video light(wave) power led flash !!!!!! (two times powerfull then ordinary led)


720p@25fps vs 720p@30fps


ARM 11 680 MHz processor(A 11 is one of oldest processors on market!!!!!) vs ARM Cortex A8 1GHz


256MB RAM vs 512 Ram MEMORY


512 MB ROM vs 2 GB Rom memory


some ordinary audio chip vs WOLFSON audio chip wm8994 ( best audio chip ever build in some phone !!!!!!!!!!!!!)-one of the most reputed experts in the acoustic domain.


30 million triangles/sec vs 3d graphic chip powervr sgx 540 with score of 90 million triangles/sec...he leaves ps1, ps2 and psp behind


nothing vs dlna(far superior technology)


nothing vs mdlne( technology from samsung television)


super slow phone vs super fast phone


super laging phone vs super responsive phone


When you touch anything on the screen it takes at least 2 seconds to react vs super internet broswing experience


i,m boring...

chandru, 16 Nov 2010In Samsung Wave, how to add Image in contact list, example if my friend call me i have to see ... more1:to put a photo in contacts you need to open the contact and then edit(bottom left).now at the top of the screen where you have your friends name you will see a little photo icon to the left of the name.touch on the icon and not the name and you will get add photo or take photo option.
2:to add a ringtone to a contact go to my files then sounds and select a song.while its playing touch on the little blue triangle at the bottom and select "set as" then caller ringtone then search contact.select your contact and then save.

I feel sorry for those who want to purchase this amazing device and could not find it.Don't know why samsung stopped production of this wonderful phone.Perhaps they could not bear with the price.And I feel so happy to be among those lucky people who have this gadget.I hope it starts shipping again.

And about the ratings,I think people don't really care about that.Who buys a gadget according to the ratings?As far as I know, me and my friends buy phones after a lot of researching,coz we are paying a lot of money for that and it should worth every penny.

Happy waving ;)

[deleted post]Wave vs N8 :

wave has 1Ghz cpu and n8 has just 680Ghz cpu

wave has 512 MB ram and n8 has 256 MB ram

wave has SUPER AMOLED screen and n8 has simple AMOLED screen

wave has 800 x 480 pixel density and n8 has 640 x 360 pixel density

touch responsiveness of wave is WOW !! And touch of n8 is SLOW !!

Wave can open more than 15 apps and do multitasking without ANY LAG and n8 can open max 4 apps and hangs and lags and RESTARTS

N8 is better than wave in camera section.. wave has 5 MP camera and n8 has 12 MP camera

wave has bada os with less apps but has all the basic apps that a phone needs, and n8 has lots of apps but is slow and lagging

Wave has 1500mah battery that last 3-4 days, and n8 has 1200mah battery that last max 2 days


WAVE IS BETTER THAN N8 IN EVERY DEPARTMENT EXCEPT CAMERA

ITS TIME YOU GUYS ACCEPT DEFEAT, EVEN A DUMB CAN SAY WAVE IS BETTER BY LOOKING AT THE SPECS

WAVE RULES, N8 LOOSE
