Some people said better wait for N9 but what if with the N9, they decide to lower the camera quality and instead improve other areas of the phone.
In that case, I'd rather get N8 then.

Please do not take N9 as a succesor of N8.
N9 is a totally different Nokia line of product. As Nokia has previously stated, no more N-Series devices are coming out in the future with Symbian. That most probably means they are pushing Symbian into E,C,&X series only. The rumoured N9 should be based on Meego OS and not Symbian hence, this rumoured N9 is from a different bloodline. It's more towards a replacement of N900. N8 will not get any replacement with N-Series plus it's still so new. doh.gif What kind of marketing strategy is that. Releasing a new model every month or so? laugh.gif

Again, N9 should not be a succesor of N8
Ahh thanks for the explanation.
Didn't know that. I thought it will continue with N9, N10 etc.

Samsung does release a lot of phones under the name Galaxy quite frequently so that's why I wouldn't be surprised if Nokia follow that same strategy one day.

So, Nokia is not going to Windows nor Android.
That's a poor decision IMO.

Most of the people would happilly claim that the girl is not simply a girl from fb

What are the differences between buying a lower price n8 from normal shops and buying rm1700 n8 from Nokia?
If buy from normal shops, we also get Nokia warranty right?
Correct me if Im wrong

This will answer a lot of the questions regarding the 2nd batch.Sigh.
I was planning to get this phone so that I can use it at the end of Jan for my trip to the US but now it seems that I have to make do with SE C905. cry.gif

QUOTE
"..improved phones will go on sale by the end of January or the beginning of February. They will be manufactured at the end of November or in December of 2010."

QUOTE
but as of December 2010 Nokia will start producing handsets free of defects. Delivery takes time, so do not expect to see them in shops until February.

QUOTE
Customers planning to buy Nokia N8 or Nokia C7 should wait until February or March of 2011 or take risks.

I did a lot of research for the past week.

Guys,

Is the camera better on Nokia N8 or a point and shoot digital camera like
Panasonic F3.
This one;
http://www.mudah.my/New+Panasonic+Lumix+DM...ide-7672822.htm

Is N8 better in terms of photo quality and video recording?

Many thanks in advance

Wow thousands of words cant match the impression of a single picture. Go to GSMArena an use the photo comparisson tool.

What are the pictures telling us? The Full Focus cameras are even worse than 5 megapixels cameras, like Samsung Wave.


Is this real?

Are you getting the wrong info again?  biggrin.gif  N8 is not fixed focus or full focus but auto focus..those full focus are the newer C6 & C7 & not N8.

Check the differences:

Thanks.
But I still have no clue the differences between them.
I didn't understand what Damian was saying in that Nokia page.
Can someone put it in layman's terms please...??

Hmm, daytime it looks close but night shot, the N8 was blown out of water.
Is it possible for me to get a digital camera below rm500 but has better qualities than N8 in photo and video.

Thanks

p.s. that burger is HUGE!

Added on November 25, 2010, 10:04 amThat TZ15 that I compare wth Vivaz already cost me RM1200 when I newly bought it at the PQ worst than SE Vivaz  biggrin.gif  So what you expect on those digicam < RM1K?
*
Oh wow.
I don't know. I'm new to electronics.
Just started working so only now have the chance to spend on gadgets.
But I saw a digi cam with 12mp for <rm400.
So I thought, better buy that than a phone which costs over rm1k more.

yah...... i know new batch tat comes in wont be perfectly fine..
but i just need to get it by january 2011.. lol....
so yeah i need to know whether it is possible or not sad.gif

I also need to get a digi-cam or N8 by the mid of Jan.
But the chances are really slim that they will reach M'sia by then. Sigh.

But how can we determine if it's a 2nd batch or a 1st batch?
The shops could just say that it's a 2nd batch while in fact it's just a 1st batch.
Perhaps they're not even out of stock yet now, they just keep it to drive the prices up next time.
