Watching the video closely, I can see screen tear when the menu was scrolling up/down. I hope they fix the Vsync issue.

Hmm, I noticed that as well. Nokia still has a few more months to deal with that small issue. But hey, at least from this video, we can see that the improvements over symbian 60 5th ed. is pretty good. Everything seems more fluid and simplified, which is definately a big plus for me. rclxms.gif However, as much as I do like the simplicity, I do feel that the icons and such appear a little dated. No big deal tho, functionality triumphs over beauty! tongue.gif

Sweet! Can't wait till It comes out. Perhaps the N8 shall finally be the replacement to my aging N95.

LOL...to be honest, I'm also felt somehow burnt with the whole N97 fiasco. And this also being acknowledged by Nokia as well. But in defense to Symbian OS, I honestly believes dat the crap innards of N97 were the source of its downfall, not the OS itself. True, it is not as flashy as other, newer modern OS but for me, functionality trumps form anytime.

I honestly believes dat N8 will surely mend my view on Symbian OS, namely becoz of the newer, improved OS and the great hardware that accompany it. And I also sure that with the upcoming Symbian^4, the bad rep of Symbian will be gone.

But if it is not, well MeeGo is just around the corner whistling.gif ...(Nokia fanboy here, so didn't willing to jump ship yet lol laugh.gif )

Agreed! The N97 was a pretty bad apple *pun not intended* compared to what others offered at that time. So far, Symbian^3 looks promising, functionality wise. Likewise, I don't plan to jump ship....yet. laugh.gif

Quite pointless to pass judgement on a phone that you haven't even touched, much less used. It will most likely count about a month or two after the phone is out.

Got a new vid to tempt you guys even more right here! Not very clear, but the speed of the UI is significantly faster than what we saw on the Chinese one.

-OFF TOPIC-
Despite the fact that it may be fake, it does look kinda interesting and unlike the other fake n9 out there. We shall see what news shall pop up. I do kinda like it's physical keyboard tho...(if it were real)

EDIT
On second thought, I have a higher suspicion that it is fake. In the teaser video, the phone at 0.38 appears to have a button to the left side of the keyboard while at 0.10, there is no such button. Furthermore, some of the models shown have a front facing camera while in the slide up version, there is none. Inconsistency in a video really does scream 'FAKE' to me. hmm.gif
