personally the n8 is not bad at all

good:
-the s^3 is surprisingly fast (nokia is famous for super updates so expect better improvement in the near future)
-touch screen sensitive,
-12 mega pixel camera rocking. night photos amazing, can even do close-up shots.
-video recording and playback amazing too.
-signed games downloadable from forum sites, no need download from ovi (including angry birds)
-phone is great doesnt break off while talking, loudspeaker good,
-video calls as good as usual able to call to any phone with video call capability, never tested with iphone4 though.
-16gb built in memory rox, u can add up to 32gb mem card if u want
-hd replay rox, hdmi cable option rox too
-usb cable for pendrive connection another good thing,
-casing beautiful,
-gorilla glass used for touchscreen, doesnt get scratched easily
-3 widget screens more than enough (good thinking nokia).
-thanks to all the nokia bashing the phone is cheap @ RM999 with maxis rm 50 value plan and 500mb data plan
-SIP access available for free VOIP (yet to be tested)

bad :
-built in gps sux
-built in compass kinda sux coz it doesnt seem to be able to point north
-browser sux
-youtube player sux, too many clicks needed
-ovi store website sux(for some reason the buttons in ovi dont work properly)
-battery replacement method sux
-no free ovi music 1 year (music express phones get it 1 year free download)
-the store has been around for years, yet it loses out to android and iphone for games and apps (but this is fine coz not everyone is game/app freak).
-nice camera but photo browser sux! thankfully u can download nokia beta photo browser from ovi. looking great once they improve the speed of the photo browser beta.

good for u.  resolution.. The iPhone4 is almost 3 x the resolution.. and other Android also like almost twice the resolution of the phone...
