^oh icicic, so everything that originally comes with the phone will still be there, but there will be some added things specified for canadians thats more like a bonus right? so that would make it more convenient then to buy it elsewhere, that is IF your with rogers |
Quote:
and if you were in the UK you could get the phone from Tesco for even less! (300) etc etc its just like how The Sony Store charges MSRP for their tvs while stores like Futureshop Bestbuy ask for less |
^ah icic, thanks for the info! |
typing with the N8 right now. Neat device. However as most has said on hofo the stock web browser is bad. Opera mini is perfect as Opera Link also sync with Opera on my desktop Posted via RS Mobile |
^nice! where did you get yours from? there is still gonna be constant updates up until symbian 5 is out, the first few updates will be to improve the web browser and messaging |
here's a new video of the firmware testing for the n8 they cut out the delay when swiping the homescreen and they added portrait qwerty (although the one shown is a scandinavian keyboard so there are extra keys making it cramped) the last video i uploaded was on youtube and nokia had it removed this ones on vimeo also its still a prototype firmware so any performance issues should be dismissed |
|
yeah its on there website but when you click it there is an error |
^^^^ yeah bloody technical difficulties -_- ah they only have the silver one; think i might cave though |
i think they have grey and silver, it only shows a picture of the silver so there could be a colour option when you click on the icon, but we won't know till they fix it fuuuu! |
does anyone know if rogers nokia n8 will be carrier code specific? meaning u can't update the phone's firmware? if it is, can you unlock the rogers nokia n8 to update it? |
supposedly with Symbian you can just run Nokias firmware and it will remove any branding or locking i read that off of Mynokiablog.com from one of the admins |
just updating this thread nokia n8 is now fully available on the rogers website also sim-mobile.co.uk has the unlock codes. to unlock your N8 :) |
ive n900, i want to try n8 out |
really thinking about getting this phone...was gonna get a torch but i figured its gonna get played out and bbm might get boring...and ive always liked nokia, wonder wat u guys think of it compared to the torch? and is the text msging layout like of the iphone because i know the n900 is like that but im not sure of this, i would like it like that |
GSMArenas Screen Shootout http://st.gsmarena.com/vv/reviewsimg...ootout/big.jpg http://www.gsmarena.com/display_shootout-review-541.php http://st.gsmarena.com/vv/reviewsimg...hootout/cs.jpg go to the link for the in depth reporting N8 is good all around, wish they gave it the Clear Black Display though but i guess they couldnt get the screen out in time for its release |
received my phone from rogers a couple days ago, its still wrapped, got midterms today and tomorrow, plus im waiting for my case and screen protector from e-bay before i open it i'll do a review and compare it's OS and features to the iphone 4, samsung i900 omnia(windows mobile), and my friends galaxy s and possibly my other friends bb torch (just comparing OS's) i'll also take my own picture review between the nokia n8, canon xsi, and a panasonic 12mp point and shoot |
damn...now i'm considering this phone..cos its hella cheap!..craigslist ppl selling for $320! |
just bought it...will check it out when i receive itt ;) |
i ordered mine too (couldnt wait for a blue one) from the UK Besides you can already buy different Coloured Housings on ebay (just not the blue or orange ones yet) anyhow GSMArena is doing a 720p video test with a bunch of phones including the N8 The test isn't so great some of the phones seem a bit blurry maybe smeared from greasy fingers or something Anyhow here it is on their youtube page http://www.youtube.com/user/gsmarena07 N8 seems to stand out overall with PQ and AQ (half way through the video they switch it to Low Light) |
When I first bought the K850i, I thought the camera was awesome in daylight. Now with the N8, I can shoot in both daylight and low lighting. I haven't fully tested video recording and playing it on the TV, but I'm sure the tests out there on the net are tweaked in a way to provide the best video recording possible. |
i think most of the tests we've seen (at least early on) state the settings are just set to Auto |
this is a solid phone...having one problem tho, phone keeps crashing once in a while usually when im doing something, it freezes then turns off and turns on again... |
There a known bug when connecting to wifi, the connection will go on and off, on and off, and the phone will freeze. I have yet to replicate that being on 3G. |

u could try exchanging the phone or hope that they fix it in the first firmware |
