The editors didn't like

  • Camera is a little slow
  • Red ghosting on display in night light
  • Average low light camera performance
  • (Slightly) dated design
  • Not sure how useful OZO audio is
  • Software is confusing and frustrating in places
  • Fewer apps available than with rival phones

  • Average video quality
  • Disappointing Symbian^3 OS update

  • Average virtual keyboards
  • Unintuitive UI
  • Unimpressive internet experience
  • Confusing connection management
  • Poor social network integration
  • The Nokia N8 may have an all new operating system
  • But like older touchscreen Nokias it's still clunky compared to offerings from Apple and Android. That said
  • It's a lot faster than older handsets
  • And there are lots of new apps on offer from the Ovi Store.
  • Symbian still isn't competitive
  • Interface still retro in aesthetics. Web browsing lacks panache
  • Screen
  • Limited
  • Inaccurate colours
  • Interface still too round the houses

  • Better but still quite convoluted
  • The OS could be more responsive and smooth
  • No hugely unique features
  • Price may be a little too high
  • Nonreplaceable battery
  • Chunky case
  • Non-replaceable battery
  • Uninspiring design
  • Clunky web browsing
  • Unreliable touch UI
  • Revamped OS feels dated
  • Symbian^3 is limited
  • No Android killer
  • Needs a higher-res display
  • No native DivX support
  • User interface still trails the competition in ease of use
  • The N8 can be sluggish
  • QWERTY keyboard in landscape mode only
  • Battery is not userreplaceable

  • Nokia's latest N-series phone is a fantastic piece of hardware let down by its software. It might appeal to existing Symbian users, but as smartphone operating systems go Symbian will have to catch up much faster to the likes of iOS, Android, BlackBerry a...

  • 12 MP camera, HD video recording, good audio quality,sleek build and design
  • Symbian OS needs further development, third-party applications are limited, processing is a bit slow
  • The Nokia N8 is one of those heavy-weight phones that come with hype and extremely high expectations – as all the other flagship phones are. Do we think it’s a great phone? Definitely. We are a little worried, though, because Nokia is starting to sli...

  • Good 12MP camera with attention to details and sharp imaging quality, Good viewing experience with OLED screen
  • Sluggish and unpolished user interface, Below expected battery mileage, Poor design/placement of often used buttons
  • The Truth about the Nokia N8So what does the Nokia N8 really mean for the Finnish outfit? Is it a re-entry into the ever competitive smartphone market, or a sign that more needs to be done? Clearly, the N8's design is a fresh departure from its earlier N-...

  • At the end of the day, I can’t say that the Nokia N8 is a bad phone. It’s actually quite good. The AMOLED display is brilliant, the haptic feedback and on-screen keyboard are quite usable, and the 12MP camera is quite impressive (under the right condit...

  • Excellent hardware is sadly wasted on sub-par software. When Nokia originally announced their flagship Smartphone earlier this year, it was pretty much as high-end as it could get from a hardware perspective. Now that it’s finally here, we find out if...

  • La mejor cámara, lejos, del mercado en un teléfono, Flash de Xenon, Diseño estilizado, Buena relación performancebatería, Salida HDMI a 720p, Radio FM con RDS, Ovi Store, Ovi Maps, 16Gb de capacidad incluídos microSD, Super conectividad
  • La pantalla podría ser mejor, Touchscreen insuficiente, Symbian^3 atrasa un poco, La batería no se puede reemplazar fácilmente, El browser no es tan bueno, Debería tener un procesador mayor para ser un rival competitivo
  • El Nokia N8 es lo mejor que ha ofrecido al día de la fecha la empresa finlandesa. ¿es mejor que sus rivales? en un aspecto lo es, la cámara de fotos, pero en el resto está en un nivel promedio. A la hora de comprar un teléfono muchos se fijan si la pla...

  • Es el Nokia N8 el mejor teléfono del mundo? No. Es el que ofrece la mejor relación calidad/precio? Sólo si la cámara es un factor de vida o muerte para tí. Entonces, qué es el N8? La respuesta más sincera es que el N8 es el mejor teléfono que Nokia ha ...
