| Nokia N8 price specs and review Posted: 27 Apr 2010 01:40 PM PDT With the wide range of handsets in the kitty, Nokia officially uneveiled the first device to be powered by the brand new Symbian^3 platform namely the Nokia N8.This launches with a new breed of camera that promises to capture photos and video to rival dedicated point and shoot cameras.This was previously leaked from China.The biggest feature on the Nokia N8 is its 12-megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics and Xenon flash. It features a substantially larger sensor than any ever used in any other Nokia device – even bigger than many found in dedicated cameras. The Nokia N8 also introduces the ability to record high definition videos and edit them with a smart built-in editing suite on the device. Playback quality is just as important, and the 3.5-inch HD capacitive touchscreen is the ideal window for assessing your flicks and footage. There's also a HDMI connector allowing you to hook the smartphone to your HD TV and share your media with friends and family in superb quality.
The Nokia N8 also doubles as a portable entertainment centre. Watch HD quality video with Dolby Digital Plus surround sound and hook into a dedicated Web TV application for access to news and entertainment on the move.In addition to the 12-megapixel camera and HD video skills with HDMI support the Nokia N8 has 16GB of built-in storage and is expandable up to 48GB with a micro SD card. Joining the social messaging fold with the likes of the latest Eseries and Cseries devices, the N8 enters the fray with live Twitter and Facebook updates direct to your homescreen.Embracing location based services, the N8 is location-savvy and comes with free global Ovi Maps walk and drive navigation with support in more than 70 countries worldwide.he Nokia N8 comes with access to the full range of Ovi services and it's Nokia's first smartphone to be integrated with Qt.Qt is a software development environment that makes it a cinch to build apps and deploy across the Symbian and other software platforms.
Powering the Nokia N8 is the all-new Symbian^3 platform. This latest incarnation introduces major new advances including multi-touch and support for gestures such as pinch-to-zoom. Onboard there's also three customisable homescreens that can be loaded with applications and widgets and flicked through by a swish of the finger. There's also improved 2D and 3D graphics for a faster and more responsive UI, greater memory management and a visual task manager.But as Symbian^3 offers very little new functionality and also there is nothing new here as these are already available on different platforms.
It will cost €370 (before the usual local taxes and subsidies) when it starts shipping in the third quarter of 2010.Check out the sample shots taken from the 12MP camera and they seem classy. Mobile-Review’s Eldar Murtazin quotes
So as far as reviews are concerned this phone is just for style statement and not much of out of box features compared to iPhone or ones from Android family.But the specs are awesome. What do you feel ?  Related Posts : |
