Wow. Looks Cool
the hardware is cool but software sucks
Sourish
Can you tell us Sourish why you feel that the software of N8 is not good ? I mean is there any specific reason behind it ?
I checked N8 out at the Nokia store last night. Looks wise it is stunning. But the software / OS seems to be a bit boring. Its ok if you have not seen or used Android or iPhone, but once you see iphone or HTC or Samsung android phones, N8 pales in front of them.
Thanks
Hey Kumar… Thanks for sharing your views about this phone with us 🙂
I think Nokia mobile phones are losing their popularity in India among users.
fantastic review. like my n8. fantastic unlocked cell phones. it’s light feels fantastic, simple to manuever. processor is much quicker, like it. web browser and wifi are fantastic for my business, helps me keep in touch with my clients. my wife likes hers for the fun of it, facebook games apps, keep us busy and pleased! recorder is fantastic. much better than my ancient unlocked blackberry phones. speaker phone is loud and it’s really simple to email and text for being a touch screen. also got our blackberry unlocking and cell phone unlock codes for free! got our last couple n8′s at unlockthatphone.com very pleased so far.
damn 12 mega pixels, images must be very high quality, phone is great but not cheap ;/
I am planning of buying one.
That’s great Bimal. Don’t forget to share your reviews about this mobile phone after you purchase it.
