It reminds me a lot of the LG Chocolate, sleek sexy design and presented really well in a luxury box etc. Nice. |

All i can say about this is...
...whats the point!!!
The original 8800 is not a good phone. Now i know there will be people screaming out that it was designed mainly to be a fasionable phone rather funtional, but it's not even that. Give it up Nokia...oh..hang on...sounds like they have! They are gonna copy Motorola (no sniggering now) in giving their new mobile's names rather than numbers!!! Oh no, there are bound to be gags about the new Nokia SHT phone!!! (no prizes for guessing which letter was missed out there).

@kk, look at the photos I posted. The light seems white.
@the last poster,
well we definately know the phone is not directed at you.
"Now i know there will be people screaming out that it was designed mainly to be a fasionable phone rather funtional, but it's not even that. "
Yes it is.
"Give it up Nokia...oh..hang on...sounds like they have!"
If they had given up we wouldn't see this update.
" They are gonna copy Motorola (no sniggering now) in giving their new mobile's names rather than numbers!!!"
So?
You seem to miss the point. It is an improved 8800.
I love variation. Sadly, many people wish we lived in a communist world where we all have the same grey phone and no change.
Nobody is holding a gun to your head and forcing you to buy the phone. Don't like it? Don't buy it. Move on.

@ Amnesia, I checked your pics mate, looks like it has a hint of purple like the 8850 backlight.
And to the other guy, seriously, stop being retarded.
"Give it up nokia"?!?!?! They don't care if the phone has shit features, even if it looks any good. They don't care if they're copying motorola or if people even like the phone.
... The phone sells... and so will this one.
Why should they give it up? they're hardly struggling.

Will definatly be getting one of these, looks superb.
Also 'new poster' like KK said, Nokia don't really care about features etc, this is a premium handset which looks good and has basic features.
Oh and its also sells in millions, which I suppose is the main thing for them

is that a nice BT headset you get with it too?
i defo need one of these..
@ the poster who has no idea...
Nokia dont make this phone for the mass market.. its niche market they are aiming for.. and i'd ay they preety much have it won over... i for one have owned ever nokia 8xxx product at least once.. as someone said.. once you leave a nokia you will always go back.. and the 88xx series are Nokias "premium products" hence not for your average joe bloggs... if you want a phone that does all your mod cons.. Nokia can help.. check out the 6xxx series.. no nonsense business handsets....
for the ones among us that appreciate form and factor over functions, take a look at the new 8800.. its a leap forward from the normal 8800... i for one will get one at my earliest oppertunity!

Didn't like this at the start, not because of looks etc. but just because it was released so soon after the 8800. But i'm not going to complain, the camera is a great improvement, will be the perfect match for my m600i
