The reasons why 808 is preferred over a DLSR has been explained in the 808 thread. One is restrictions to places where DLSR can be brought in. And its bulky. The technical differences between n8 and 808 camera sifus listed out.
Quality? Its better than my RM1,200 P&S, as good as or better than 'semi pro' cameras but less bulky.

Anyway, with 808, if security question : This camera? Camera cannot bring in. Can say - Nope, this handphone, see its Nokia, nokia make hp, not camera.

Our N9, its unique, its for keeps as collection, none like it though the L800 tries to be, only succeded on the outside

From the samples faizal uploaded, 808 video esp sound dept beat N8. I'm no expert but I think N8 not sufficient for sports mode, 808 quality looks like the 'semi pro' camera- that's what us layman call a camera that's between P&S and DSLR. That's what I've been looking for, a pocketable semi pro camera cum video cam
Shows how competitive this industry is, just a short 2 years, so much improvement


Aiyoo Andy, you comment like that, I lagi the 808.
It having a Meego/Maemo version might not have been suitable, might turn off some of the Symbian users as most will be N8 owners.They might think "what's this Meego? Never heard before, can work meh? " If have both - one for Symbian, one for Meego, of course lah better but we know wouldnt happen. WP Pureview, ehem... after N9 & L800 comparisions, can imagine a dumbed down version of 808

If you look at 808 thread, its not a hard choice at all, if priority is camera. If a user is thinking of buying a semi pro camera or DSLR or even better Point and Shoot, why not. OS is not a problem, cos if one is using a camera, there isnt even an OS to think about

Noooo way will sell N9, its for the muzium,categorised under Meego, hahaha.

I thought the review should be by sifu Aspire? he's the expert on camera in phones

Actually its RM300 more only,1,599. If you have many music and video files then 64GB better bet. Its still cheaper than the 2088 we paid for. Anyway, if you want 64Gb, better faster go get it, sell finish thats it. No more producing

Firefox 13 problem kah? Like that dont download 1st.

huh? Until now not yet buy? Look at Lelong.com, got AP set, in Sgor

Aiyo, Nokia killed Meltemi and 10,000 more staff will lose their jobs. Nokia will become MircoNokia sooner than we expected :

Congrats for taking the plunge! Yours 16GB or 64GB?
Add to what others have posted,make sure you enable 'allow installations from other sources' if want to download non Nokia Store apps like wazzap.
Flash is available by using Firefox, download firefox from nokia store. and make sure upgrade Meego PR1.2 1st.

Dont worry,I was also total newbie to Meego bf buying N9. Need to take time in the forums,n9 fan sites to make good use of its open source

Pikacu, how u use ur N9 leh? Stand by mode only?

Kenny, I tot Nokia shares already crash like nobody's business. With this, dunno share price got 50 cents. The L900 owners will be pissed and those who havent buy will wait for WP8 phones.
Nokia better sell more 808, dont play jual mahal game like with N9

It's coming. The developers have already been working on it. Read that the one in charge of PR 1.2 update will leave in Aug, hopefully PR1.3 will be ready by then.

I would too if I just bought a L900 and it's announced it wouldnt get WP8. Then a few more months a more terror dual core model will come out. US ok, they sell cheap2, here, not cheap.
Andy will have some more 'Samseng' comments on Samsung using Nokia Drive

Even uptime also very geng liao. I cannot tahan even 1 week never reboot, it will lag

After a week or 2 should be better. Change the interval where it auto update feeds & emails to 3 hours or so, can change from settings

16GB or 64GB? Worth actually, if 16GB RM650 is half price. Check the condition of the device 1st.
N9 now has wazzap,ported version of whatsapp that's the good thing abt open source. Can use to send to Blackberry, Android, IOS, Symbian, we have tried. What are other functions you need ? list out, we answer

Err, if you ask we all here, 99% no like WP, i.e. Lumia. Too restrictive, no mass storage, no bluetooth, semua Zune only,etc,etc. The 1% n9 owner who like WP I think only sifu aspire, lol.

Battery life : 12 hours or so if active using 3G. Active for me is 5 to 6 hours on 3G

Social network : N9/Meego is great for social network intregration and multi tasking. Easy to switch between windows.
Build quality : Very good, no calar so far after ....I think 9 months since launching. BUT use the silicone case and get a screen protector ya. Some people stratch it cos dont use case. Anyway, yours will be 2nd hand, ask the 1st owner and look at it closely see if any peeling.

Games : Still got Angry Birds and some HD games. N9 has 1GB RAM, no prob. The clear black tech on Nokia is good for usage in bright sunlight, still can see the screen nicely.

Cons :
- It has amoled screen and resolution is good (forgot the specs),with the curved screen lagi nice- the visuals like floating on screen. Just the colour banding prob common with amoled screens. In my case, I see 'bleeding' for bright colours like red, orange, yellow - pervalent in TVB dramas under dark setting
- Be careful of the curved screen, it's been reported it cracks easier than the flat screen like say N8.

Increase from 101 to 121 liao? Wow, prob increase not decrease

Delta, it's PR 1.2, PR 1.3 not out yet

yeah pikacu, better put BIG red warnings. I also haven't tried the tweak N9, lazy to go thru the instructions.
