If your after a fully functioning phone from one of the best brand names in the industry, look no further than the new Nokia N8. Whilst this great phone may lack the apperance and sleek looks of the iPhone4, it more than makes up for it in functionality.
The reason that this phone works and operates as well as it does, is because Symbian^3 Operating System. This comes packed with 250 new features! Now before your head starts spinning and going into overload – it’s ok. It has been reported to be very easy to use and get to know and maximize the feactures.
And for those that like to have everything from doctors appointmebts to visual task managers, your gonna love the Nokia N8. You can find more features here…
I’m a big fan of Nokia and have in fact only ever owned nokia phones. Whilst I’m not ready to get this phone yet. I’m sure that this is a great update.
I bought this phone when it was first released. It has been a great phone thus far, but I am disappointed with some things that this phone is short of. Firstly, the battery does not hold charge very long. Even if you have the phone on standby most of the time, you would have to literally charge the phone every day. This is actually not so much of a problem as the worst part of this charging is when the phone does not get charged sometimes even if you have plugged it overnight. You have to recharge it again. I am not sure what the problem is, it could be an issue with the system. Does anyone has this problem? The other things that I have been disappointed about this phone are: it is pretty slow in terms of operation – especially when you want to change from portrait to landscape or moving from one application to another, also the touch screen is not very sensitive, and there is not a whole lot of apps that can be used by this phone. You are restricted to only using the OVI apps. But when it comes to apps provided by other companies, stores, or vendors, they don’t provide apps for Symbian. They are mostly for Iphones, Android, or Blackberry. Don’t get me wrong. It is a great phone, but I just don’t think it is worth $550 or even $449 (their new lowered price). I like the camera, including the video, and the free GPS feature. These are the only things that I think sets this phone apart from the rest.
