almost exactly how i would write about my experience moving back to symbian with 808 after years of iphone/android

I do think it is too late for Symbian to recover.. S60v5 ruined Symbian PERIOD rclxub.gif

I'll be joining you guys officially this Sunday, The Mines got stock as they have just called me this evening..
but I am hoping for no software problems and purple tinge and so. If so, then I take the phone, its worth the RM notworthy.gif

is the rubber case available at Malaysia yet?? plan to put it in day one whistling.gif or someone can recommend me a nice protective case?

symbian is dead. Unless they fire elop n the whole board of directors. If you check out the various nokia facebook pages feedbacks around the world, youll see that 808 is the real 'Hero' device, not Lumia 900. Lumia just don't have the traction to gain any market share even with the kabbilion $$$ poured into marketing. It is pathetically below even the dead webOS. By abandoning symbian, Nokia has killed the goose that laid their only golden egg. The huge mobile market is big enough to have another ecosystem after ios and android but nokia didnt see it that way and pakai hentam saje using Windows Phone to compete with the top 2, sacrificing symbian in the process.

Anywayyyy, you are asking about the case? I saw at Digital Mall Endless Concept 2 days ago got couple of black and red cases selling at a cut throat price at rm136, no white. Cash can discount to rm100

I do agree with you.. I see why they drop off Symbian I don't see why the need of dropping off MeeGo..
So lepas ni Nokia semuanya pakai Windows Phone?? If nice oke rclxub.gif

All hail Nokia 808! Greatest Symbian Phone ever made!! thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

Guys, I'm surprised that you didn't even noticed the strong blue gradient problem (regarding ISO settings)
I've noticed it since this phone was announced.. and for user like me? I'm not very satisfied with low light condition vmad.gif

Woww.. this phone is superb! but I am struggling to bond with this phone as it setting is kinda complex even in well lit condition. I tried out to snap around Putrajaya, loved it settings as you can customized it with a proper and clearer settings (for the first time, FINALLY!!) and their image algorithm differs to the previous Nokia cameraphone.. and now I feel that my N82, N86 and N8 were very easy to use than my 808 (just my opinion, beginners will have a hard time learning the settings in 808)

the best cameraphone there is! the best POINT and SHOOT it is!! notworthy.gif

I have no complaint for high iso performance since my last camera panasonic gf2 didn't fare better in that department as well.
*
I always use high ISO for freezing moving objects, and seeing the blue color at the right side of the picture and green color at the right side are NOT SO COOL vmad.gif vmad.gif
if ISO 800 don't have this problem I can accept it.. I don't mind the noise.. only I am concerned on how the phone handles the image algorithm..

and one thing that I just can't get to understand, is that when capturing in a very low light conditions, putting ISO 400 and above should give a less shaky images but in 808 PV it handles even worst! it was SHAKY AS HELLAH!! it is like turning on night mode shocking.gif WHY??

I hope Damian and da gang solves this problem.. and I feel this phone quite resembles N86 image algorithm (blue-ish picture, which I didn't like it). N82 and N8 was superb on handling low light and its white balance are more accurate, don't get me wrong I love this phone, its just can be better and MUST BE BETTER AKU DAH HABES DUA RIBU WEEH UNTUK HENSET NIH sweat.gif

here is a nice example for the 'funny color' , green color at left, purple color at right

http://www.flickr.com/photos/tigeristic_photos/7614165244/

and I saw someone making comparison, 808 vs N8.. check this out

2nd picture is very nice! 808 truly outcome N8!
but the 1st picture?? 808 got details, but color?? mad.gif mad.gif

I will be doing my own comparison since I still keep my N8, only after I buy 808, my N8 battery seams to be spoiled, 1 day left idle battery died already laugh.gif

what i'm saying is its not strictly iso1600 thats causing the banding issues like what the poster in dpreview said  doh.gif

yup yup thanks for the exposure! biggrin.gif

huhu acceptable lah ISO 800, I often used it on my N8 but Belle firmware lowers more shutter speed than Anna, iso 800 (during night) in 808PV even worst!! ISO 800 got 1/8 shutter speed but ISO 1600 got 1/5 shutter speed?? sweat.gif

argghh.. at not-so-dim light ISO 800 at 1/2 shutter speed?? sapa boleh hidup camnih?? my N8 can score up to 1/20 with the same settings!!
and the creaking sound (video mode, CAF) but I don't really mind that actually..

and I often got a blank shot especially shooting the sky, it occurs when I placed higher ISO.. but sometimes putting higher ISO produced pictures, but sometimes just a blank pictures, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO KIA sad.gif
