Errr..SF is open source. The next symbian phones by SE or samsung should have S^3. This phone is scheduled to be out on the 20th of september.If not SE, I still back Samsung to make a meal out of their next 12mp phone, which shall probably beat a point and shoot camera. Btw,Dolby thing was first introduced by LG in one of their phones. Is a sonic gimmick. You dont expect surround sound from a 2 speaker setup.Do you? HDMI, i believe would be introduced in days to come.Anyways.Come June, SE's flagship announcement. We shall see.For now, feed on the official pictures.  |

No no no dude, Dolby Digital will be used in the HDMI port when you playback via you HD TV/Monitor using TV-Out, THAT is a 1st.
The fact is this is the 1st to bring S3, HDMI and HQ surround audio with TV-Out. The SE will take forever to be released as usual ,and i do agree about Samsung, they may have something similar or better out sooner,but who knows eh.

Indeed. I was surprised with this one. It is really a worldwide phone.

Wow. Well i think Nokia taking their time with this is important and will hopefully pay off should they get it right. Glad they put in a proper flash. I think the N86 was a bit of a non event and again mistakes were made. Terrible design and no proper flash low res screen although picture quality was good. But this N8 I WANT IT.

Five months till this appears on the shelves. There is no doubt it will sell. Nokia needs a hit phone.
However, let's hope they sort out the software, and not subject people to the continuous and constant updates that comes with some S60 phones, Satio included.

Nokia needs a hit phone? Mmmm their cheaper Symbian devices currently sell out all the time & hit the No.1 spot after a week of release.

I'm talking N95 style hit. Now that was a game changer.

I think what The One with the Gold face means is that they need a high end hit phone,the N97 was realy a disaster and N900 was more of a Geeks only device, what they needed was a mainstream flagship to takeover where had N95 left off. N95 brought in so many new things,and the N8 is doing the same. By the way it also supports USB OTG, apparently can pull things off an external harddrive without a pc.

Non-removable battery.
No thanks.
Free OVI maps is good in over 70 countries, though. I'll take those.
Resolution of screen pretty poor for this type of device, all things considered.
Lots of 3G bands is nice.
But not much to see here, IMO.
I'd rather use a commodity Symbian S60 phone than be on the bleeding edge with a new Symbian here, with all the new quirks to figure out and resolve - and the insanity of a non-removable battery.

Ye,im not happy about a non-removeable battery either,but the pros seem to out weigh the cons eg. HDMI, AMOLED screen, HD video, USB OTG, xenon flash etc...
If you've used the N97 you'll know that the 640x360 res screen aint bad at all, fonts look amazing,and so do wallpapers,themes etc...

Who cares if the batery cant be removed.... At least i dont. I cant remember the last time i took out my battery for any other reason than changing SIM. And in Romania we have Lifetime warranty for these phones (my satio too), so when battery will get shitty, i will just ship it to theyr service, and they will do the switch. Every phone i had i had it for 1 year, 1 and a half max, then sold and bought a new one.
And someone wanted AMOLED display... why? so you can not see it in the sun?.. anyways AMOLED fades out and has alot of negative points.. google it.
EDIT: only downside so far is the NO CAMERA COVER. :/
