hey guys...just wanna know whether the touch of nokia n8 is close to iphones' touch or not?

 

[nikhilpai]

Is the camera good enough to replace a digital camera? How fast is the s^3 compared to s60? How responsive is the screen and any unique feature?

Well. It can't replace a digital camera due to lack of optical zoom. But for everything else its as good if not better than 'many' digital cameras (not all)

Quite fast compared to S^1. Screen is responsive but there are occasions when it doesn't respond that well. Not as responsive as some other phones in the market. Though not way behind them.

Unique features are USB OTG, HDMI output, FM transmitter.....

26k is good for 12MP camera....with Xenon (wow)
prices will be lower in 3~4 months.....

This one is much better :

Nokia N8, The Initial List Of Fourteen Wins And Fails

I think symbian has no future now, Nokia truely fails in high segment mobiles.

It's about codec.Some files from youtube uses aac1 and other codecs which are not supported by these family of s60.(except samsung model no I forgot).
So no player would be able to play those.

it plays everything but lag too much...try it...I think it needs hardware accelerator to play fine

I checked with Nokia priority dealer, it said 23300.

That is a phenomenal price for a phone with such outstanding features ! The camera , HDMI connection , USb OTG etc are really useful !

 

[gagan007]

hehe but i'll still wait for a another three months...I hope its price comes <20K within that period
HTC/Android fones are better but none of them has a front camera (which I use to video call my folks)!

i have the samsung Wave & it would've been my dream gadget if it had android...

 

[MANOfJosh]

My Friend got it for 24k.

My Lame Comments,

1. Music Rocks, Bundled Earpiece is Awesome.
2. UI is almost same as Symbian^1 a.k.a s60v5 with few optimizations.
3. Camera is Good.
4. Build Quality is Really Good.

Didn't have much time to meddle with it.

...
2)There is no auto focus while capturing videos in N8.

There are mods available to do that. Along with getting un-processed raw images
