The lower the number the better.
The size of a camera sensor will have a big impact on the quality of your pictures. The lens gathers light and directs it towards the sensor, and the sensor records the light to create the image. Large sensor produces better images
All things being equal, a larger sensor will receive more light than a smaller one, and produce better images. This is especially important in low light photography.

Hang and Dead Issue
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
If ever your N8 failed to boot up (mean pressing the power button but no response), do as follow:
1. Verify is it a SW hang by long press the power button >7.5 seconds to force shutdown the N8. This is for SW hang scenario 2. Plug in the charger and wait for AT LEAST 15 minutes, then try to boot up. This is for depleted battery scenario 3. If you are SURE the battery not depleted and got the DEAD N8, send to NCC for checking as it might be defective hardware related issues.
From experience, the N8 can't be Hard Reset once it's failed to boot up normally or so call "DEAD N8".

As a beginner, we know how bad we take pictures. Here are the tips to get things right.
1. Learn the curve, functions of the camera inside the N8, get to understand the scene mode, flash mode, exposure, white balance, light sensitivity, contrast. 2. Then, take alot of pictures with different light sensitivity, exposure or other settings. Compare the pictures. This is basically trial and error. 3. Next, take alot of pictures with different angle, positions and distance and scenery. Try with different setting as well. Compare the pictures, and choose the best among the best 4.

Nokia N8 Screen Test (Dark Blend and Dark "Stains" during AMOLED near turn OFF mode)
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
All, attached here the Screen Test color cards which use to check the Nokia N8 AMOLED screen quality.
1. Extract the .zip and it contain 16 color cards with below setting, all are in 360x640 resolution:
01. ST BLACK-00.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 000000. 02. ST BLACK-01.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 010101. 03. ST BLACK-02.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 020202. 04. ST BLACK-03.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 030303. 05. ST BLACK-04.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 040404. 06. ST BLACK-05.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 050505. 07. ST BLACK-06.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 060606. 08. ST BLACK-07.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 070707. 09. ST BLACK-08.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 080808. 10. ST BLACK-09.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 090909. 11. ST BLACK-10.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 0A0A0A. 12. ST BLACK-11.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 0B0B0B. 13. ST BLACK-12.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 0C0C0C. 14. ST BLACK-13.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 0D0D0D. 15. ST BLACK-14.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 0E0E0E. 16. ST BLACK-15.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 0F0F0F.
2. Open these files with the default photo viewer.
3. Go into an enclose place (total darkness needed) wait for a while (to let our eyes get use to the darkness) and view into the phone screen.
4. From what I've observed the phone AMOLED will start to turn off start at "ST BLACK-04.bmp", "ST BLACK-03.bmp", "ST BLACK-02.bmp", "ST BLACK-01.bmp",
"ST BLACK-00.bmp".
5. The screen dark "stains" will sufface as well during these few color cards.
6. Start from "ST BLACK-05.bmp" onward the dark "stains" will be not so visible.
7. All these have to be done in total darkness room as these defective "stains" are not visible at all when the surrounding are bright.
After you seen these result DO NOT simply bash N8 straight away as we're not sure why/how the AMOLED display technology work and how it perform on other
devices. Anyone can use these color cards to verify on others AMOLED display devices as well...

Well I got it through ovi store but giving money to them now won't make much different. Not many developers would waste their resources to port games to the dying symbian just so they could sell it there for another couple of years. Not worth it. I bet whatever they are gng to sell for symbian in ovi store now is already a work in progress before Nokia decided to shag Microsoft. They won't make a fresh decision to develop for symbian anymore. imho lah.

not to mention if wp7 epic fail and symbian continue to sell under nokia middle end phone symbian might refuse to die...

Guys, look at this website say there update for iOS4.3 somewhere in March 2011 onwards.. Just couple of months back they launch 4.2.. Wow they too efficient hmmm. I wonder whether Nokia can cope up with them !!!! Big Question ?? Also iP 5 is coming in June 11... Guess what i m thinking !!!!!!
Just guess if when PR1.1 will come to us for update and I just wondering that by the time that Nokia release PR2.0, iOS 5.1 or 5.2 should already out there maybe by early next year..

Symbian is already a super duper platform no need updates
Dude, Apple only got 1 product line which is iPhone while Nokia have numbers of product lines ranging from low end to top end! Give Nokia some break & credit where it's due.

That is true. That's why they don't even know their flagship product codes. Fabulous isn't it?

But then bro, Nokia has been in the market very long time compare to Iphone where Iphone only launched somewhere in 2006 or 2007. U can see that Nokia come even b4 2006 and so on. They should be more prudent and efficient in firmware updating and support compare to Apple. For example you go to any apple store or Service Centre, u can many things there but when u go Nokia Retail Shop or Service Centre, u have to wait , mainly parts not available and need to be order.. I had a fren who is Ip 4 recently, he had some issues on his set soon after he brought via Digi, they sent to service and got replacement part almost two days..
Same thing u go to NCC, they will say leave the set here, we will check and get back to u asap, which will time almost a month for a reply from them and another month for part to be arrived and replaced.. What a joke!!!

As I said, Nokia have abundant of product lines (Nokia 12xx 'till Nokia E7) while Apple only got one for their phone which is iPhone. Of course you can't expect all of the parts of Nokia phone to be ready in time Besides, both have different approaches towards their target market.
For the customer service, I do agree, Nokia tends to suck in it

The point is here, a lot of people feel Nokia is not giving anywhere near their best to serve customers, be it on updates or customer service etc. They think they are too big that they can just ignore us customers. So they shouldnt be allowed to get a free ride on that.

i know bro. but has there been an increase in the number of owners? or a decrease? like, did many people here said that they sold off their n8. and if yes, due to what? phone problem or upgrade?

Yeh. Actually used to until December. But in my heart, n8 is still my favorite phone.sigh. Hopefully they keep the camera performance in the new Windows phones. When is that gonna be? 2012? 2013? There is no way that they will be able to release one at the end of this year right?

hahaha yeah it is. but as a 4sq user. this is good good news. the native foursquare application for nokia symbian 3 really sucks. works half the time. can't detect my location if i'm in the building. need to go out. open air area only =/

i'm quite sure i don't use wifi to detect. if my bro ( using 3gs ) and me are in the same place. his 4sq app can detect the location much much faster than mine. but the gps for 3gs takes forever to lock as compared to my n8 with ovi maps

Get a codec checker. I too have a few MKV that dont play on C7.
Wondering if its the same problem encountered by those using Realtek based chipset media player regarding MKV compressed header.

weird. Mine doesn't even scan more than 10 seconds before.
Finally able to install Chan's mod this morning, Yeah~!! 1 question here, after I choose option 6 for the photo and video compression, how come the photo I can took reduce from 7k+ down to 1k+?? I'm pretty sure it's not cause by save location cause no way 160+mb can contain 1k+ photo. So, is it cause by the compression rate? anyone care to provide me some hint here?
im interested to get n8 so i just wanna ask about the status of new n8, is it still high chance for me to get the dead n8? actually how many had experience that? minority or majority?
is there anyone here that got the early n8 and still running without problem to this day?

it's normal as all those mods are come with proper estimation size mods as well where when u use 100 quality mods the photo size will increase ~7 times so your estimated left over balance from your storage should decrease by ~7 times (from original ~2mb per photo to ~12mb per photo)...
