You will know when it dies on you and you have to send it to the NCC to get it revived. tongue.gif

But chill out, it only affects a small percentage of users so it's not that critical as it's made out to be unless you are an owner of a dud unit. In the meantime, enjoy Angry Birds and the camera.  rclxms.gif

yeah, Angry Birds is addictive tongue.gif plus the the camera is awesome, not to mention the video recording is superb smile.gif

Guys, how long does your N8 battery last? mine only last for 1 day, checking emails, facebook, play games, mp3, web browsing...

At the moment my N8 is left 40% of battery juice, I'm using the Power Saving mode now, it straight away change from 3.5g connection to gsm, I guess it will make a difference.

actually the power saving mode is for wat purpose?

it will not use much battery power I guess, if you notice the changes, the background is a bit dim, the connection is no longer 3g but gsm thus making your N8 power to run a bit longer, if your battery is low smile.gif

Do you guys apply screen protector for your N8? I saw a video on youtube [forgot the title, looks like Malaysian made] that the N8 is "scratch"

resistant, got 1 guy using a folding knife trying to scratch the back part of N8 and the front screen, there isn't a single scratch, I'm not that daring

enough to try it on my on N8, haha

most of us got put. Well for normal usage I'd say the screen can withstand normal scratches cos its gorilla glass.. But its oways better to be safe than sorry.
*
Any specific brand you recommend? because like my previous N97 mini the screen brightness will decrease since it need to go through the screen protector. So I have not apply any yet sweat.gif

i know u guys mean well, so thank you for that. tbh i dunno wut to do right now. sayang la to just ditch the casing since i think it's really nice and i just bought it... unsure.gif  cry.gif

can give you a suggestion, maybe you can take out the magnet? else switch to a new casing like what I did, now that magnetic casing is just collecting dust in my room, but no loss since it was free biggrin.gif
