[amz60769]

Cnt tell if dis iz gud

[llucasdantas2]

Va se Fuder!

[wildcatangel56]

Can Nokia make a tumblr app? Pretty please :)

[gaikwadamar1991]

can i use this software in my Nokia c5-o3

it is available on other wab side or ovi store i want this software.

[MyCuordileone]

The editing software for the n95 was SO much better!

[RatedNKA10]

help!! i dont know how to download music and cant get 2 enterenet??

[Russmiah15]

The touch response looks really slow but the 12megapixel camera looks great but the if touch response was a lot faster and smoother then I would of got this phone

[f23568820032002]

5:58, "and it could be any types of usb..."

NO!!!..... transcend doesn't work on NOKIA N8

i tried all my trscend usb flash drives, none worked.

that's why i bought another thumb drive just for this phone =(

i tried SanDisk, Kingston, PNY.....they all worked well =)

[daavee03]

WOW!! iphone has nothing on this..!!!

[Petersenrocks]

you know what`s Not good with the N8? ...is that you can`t add numbers from the protocol to the adressbook - if you missed a call and go to protocol and want to add the number - it dials it immediatly ... so you have to sit down with a pencil, notate the number and add it manually - that`s no good.

[olmo2603]

@Petersenrocks

that sucks dude, ur sure bout that? i have the nokia 5800 also symbian older one and you can add the number there

[abdou1995]

it's a simple pc

[shussey100]

I'm hoping we can get this here in Botswana, Africa.

[them4tic]

@shussey100 it's in south africa already but only in a few select stores

[Thesupermadman]

Nokia, I love your devices and think they're great, but for God's sake do something about that horrid default theme! It's just ugly!

[theebob2008]

Why does he choose to write "Loving Him" at 2:21?

[gorgeousman1]

@theebob2008 just a random sentence i also believe a man with a girl usually means love thats what came in his mind about what the girl might think or say

[ilydrazz]

@theebob2008 hahahah. XD

[chimbangas]

@theebob2008 douchebag...

[theebob2008]

@chimbangas I was just asking a question...

[renn1988]

Now I know why Nokia cannot fight with Apple iOS and Android because it UI is so user-unfriendly~! so lag

[1983Dave1983]

The only thing I like about the N8 is the 12MP camera, but we have a big camera at home anyway. I'm getting a Samsung Galaxy S.

[lithinm1998]

is that usb wire is included with the phone?

[Heavykani]

The slide-in animations in the UI are extremely choppy.

[rotax912]

is spanish languaje available as option?

[peanutboy41]

Dear Chris Bennets,

I want that phone, please send it to me.

Yours truly, peanutboy41

[clawinureface]

WTF LAG  1:27

[yoreckable1]

OK, Fuck all these fanboys over here, Apple and android are great!

[1234fllf]

@yoreckable1 i think you're the fanboy saying this on a nokia video on the nokia CHANNEL lol what did you expect???

[EvolutionQY7]

There wont be any apps ...nokias Ovid store struggles to get any devs

[L2cxw5fZ7Y]

Will there be much Apps fpr the n8? If so, im gonna buy it!

[musicfreak92ful]

im starting to love nokia...... <3

[SuperHinan]

cant compete with sonyericsson satio

[otso56]

@SuperHinan In what exactly is the Satio better? It seems abit cheaper, but that's about it.

[danny2896]

its a little slow

[wk3000]

it looks unbearably slow

[otso56]

@wk3000 It does in the older videos indeed, I think this is pretty bad advertisevement for Nokia and I wonder why are they still keeping these up. The speed and responsiveness is several times better on the current phone, as can be seen in some of the newer videos.

[weecoulter]

Give the Nokia 5800 a rotating homescreen and video editor and really there is no need for giving nokia another shit load of money imo

Not worth it, they havnt upgraded enough imo

[donmarcanto]

Please Nokia, the same device running Android is the right path ! You know it. We all had bad memories with SymbianOS (and N97). Please Nokia come back!

[salalami6000]

It's not an iPhone. It's that simple! My experience with Symbian that it is a very sluggish, rigid OS. It had it's days where it used to be a leader. It's only a follower now! Good luck Nokia. Change or be changed!

[ZEEZEE834]

this guy doesnt have anything on steve jobs

[KidCharmed]

When is this out in the us and how much will it cost?

[cylon6]

This looks like it'll be a great phone. If the UI is responsive does it really matter that it doesn't look as snazzy as other UIs?

[alumax1966]

i have had one. they are junk, symbian 3, crap

[kelemori]

final N8 will be much faster than this .i hav seen some improvements in other N8 videos

[funkluv]

WHAT FORMAT ARE THE VIDS IN 3GP OR MP4

[Jakerbrake]

I have my Nokia N95 8Gig, and you can edit photos and videos with it, i do it all the time it's a must in a smart phone, I would love to get my hands on the N8 and find out just what it can do.

[StylinRed]

Responsiveness has to be improved...

[TheSchwan21]

is conversations coming to nokia 5230?

[d571757]

iPhone still the best

[TheWorldofJoe]

Oh man this is making the iphone look even more crappier. :O If only the Ovi Store were as advanced as the App Store.

[nekku19]

If you hate Nokia you hate Finland and If you hate Finland you're DEAD!

[eloexplorer]

@nekku19 lol

[kalejallepalle]

@nekku19 Aivan =D

[BrunoApple94]

w iphone

[lacasrac]

its very slow..shit:)

[xeniosm]

if it had a better cpu this beast would be uncomparable

[bronxboyXXX]

Fuck that's slow!!!!!!!!!!

[WillemHeida]

Jesus christ, that is one slow operating system...

[xelfect]

if only nokia and apple works as a team to make a the greatest phone ever! just hoping :P

[ustwats]

Good features, but i prefere the look of my N900

[Dcaine92]

a little slow

[rjrex8]

nokia n8 is the best!! beats in iphone in terms of high tech features.

[dentunes]

Hey Chris, long time no see. How have you been? Senior Product Manager - awesome work. Are you still in Aus?

[dihsh]

this phone is wicked

[Zwaluww]

What all you Nokia/Symbian haters out there are doing is what everybody was and still is doing to iPhone; taking all that's missing and forgetting about all that's good. You should learn to appreciate that while companies borrow ideas from each other, they can still have different goals in mind. If you want an iPhone with limited hardware and software, but fast GUI, fine, and if you want a Nokia with loads of features iPhone does not have, fine. Just learn to distinguish these two.

[johnivantorres]

@lilyistheking N900 is good, okay. N97 Sucks big time.. iphone features is just moderate.spcifically WHAT important features does n900 have advantage from iphone3gs or 4? does that feature VALUABLE to everyday life? isnt it the main purpose of the phones are 4 making calls & txting?so longer battery life is wat prctically mking sense on choosing w/c to buy.iphone 4 has better battery life compared to n900, and N8 w/c uses Xenon flash. understand? ur a girl? lilyistheKING = you have a dick. = GAY

[crossforced]

Incredibly Lame Effects, Nokia = Brilliant Hardware But Incomplete Software

[johnivantorres]

@crossforced @crossforced very true. GREAT hardware but LAME software.. T___T how poor can nokia developers brain can be,,. they developing a phone but they themselves cant develop their brain at all.. LoL

[johnivantorres]

symbian OS are soo SLOW.. like its fans... sooo slow... although feature almost perfect, but OS cant compensate the features then overall = Fail... you do not need an 12MP camera unless your gona print a big portrait of you... and your gona use HDMI cable for about everyday???? @_@ lol why not watch straight from tv then... your just asking for features that is not practical.. a PHONE is simply a PHONE.. not your Home Theater nor Picture Studio.. for quality and moderate features, go for iphne 4

[lilyistheking]

@johnivantorres iPhone sucks,and those who buy them cant use a real OS or are just label whores,like you.And s60 is slow,but have you seen any hands on from phonedog or someone else,the UI is very fast and smooth,iPhone OS can only have 7 apps running,how weak,and facetime,what innovation,nokia n900 has it too,and what moderate features???Also,my name is LILY,so i am a lady,not a dude,understand the difference?

[johnivantorres]

@lilyistheking like i care if your a lady? i have an n900 and n97.. and they both are sooo disappointing coz their SLOW.. you won't know the difference when your only seeing videos like this and not actually having one yourself... i have recently borrowed iphone 3gs of my brother to try, then it amazes me of the response time compared to the phones i have.. so the newly upgraded Iphone4 might be much much faster then 3gs and that alone leaves nokia to the turtle community with a great features..

[lilyistheking]

@johnivantorres i have a n900,and it is fast and responsive,and has more than iTunes to offer,iPhone is a TOY,it has nothing a smartphone should have,also,i had the iPhone 3gs,and it is fast,but that is everything,S.Jobs should call it iTrash,not iPhone...understand it bitch?

[55512123]

I think this guy is a homo...

[Weider63]

so laggish 

[07liberian]

@Weider63 It's A Prototype, The Phone Won't Be Released Til August.

[veljan04]

suck on that iphone!

[leemarkin]

laggy, i don't know why nokia makes the phone so laggy even in a promoting ad

[ichbinnichtgott]

@leemarkin

i guess it's still a beta-version....

[peterunitedkingdom]

Nokia = Epic Failure

Nokia = loser

Nokia = Worst OSes

Nokia = Worst touch screen Phones

Nokia = Slowest Phone

Nokia = Ugliest & Thickest Phones

Nokia = Worst quality

Nokia = severe pain to it's handset customer

Nokia = Copy master (Apple coverflow, Apple multitouch)

[lilyistheking]

@peterunitedkingdom you are talking about nokia so?First,nokia is not an epic failure,Motorola is one,nokia makes the most money in mobile communications,symbian OS is the most popular OS in the world,they are not slow,i have a n900 and it beats the crap out the iphone,the n8 is a masterpiece of art wile the iphone looks always the same!YOU IDIOT!!!

And copy master,who has stolen multitasking,folders,personali­zation,GPS and quickoffice from nokia,APPLE DID!!!Iphone is only a toy-phone.

[johnivantorres]

@lilyistheking dude. nokia OS is slower than iphone. even if it beats features. if it is slow then it is really SLOW. like you.

[C210288A]

@peterunitedkingdom suck the dick of nokia company , icrap lover :))

[murfad]

i wish nokia would have put so much "casual effort" on the n900...

the general speed and smoothness of the UI looks really good on the n8.

not that i regret buying the n900, but seeing that other nokia-devices have such fluid UI's, i'm kinda jealous.

[lilyistheking]

@murfad why jealous?actually,i think the n900 is as strong as the n8,the only difference is in my opinion that the n900 is more business,and the n8 multimedia orientated(that is why i think nokia n900 is actually an e900-e is the business searies in nokia)

[lilyistheking]

lets male a survey

who would buy this phone when it is in the shops

[TheLordwiggle]

iphone 4 has 2 yrs to get this level !

[roms3]

It's perfect. I Want It!!!!!!!!!!!

[valentinomilikic]

Even if i like symbian 3,I would appreciate it if nokia would make maemo or meego available in the ovi store or something like that,because i LOVE the maemo on the n900,and it would be an even better device...

PS.i would not use it,but if people do not like symbian they do not have to live with it,and can download an awesome os.

[unlocker]

@valentinomilikic I don't think you understand what you are saying. Go to the ovi store with the n8, and download maemo, and then run maemo? That is flat out impossible and no phone can do this, or ever will be able to do this. To put it in something you can understand, that is like an asian person going to the doctor and saying he doesn't like being asian and wants to be latin. Not possible, and crazy to even think it.

[valentinomilikic]

@unlocker i am not saying that i understand much of that,im just saying i would appreciate it if nokia n8 could be avaible in a maemo version



[unlocker]

@valentinomilikic Don't worry, there will be a phone similar to this that will run meego. Not this exact phone, but a high spec phone. My guess would be 8mp (the n86 camera module with dual led), 4.3 inch capacitive screen, no keyboard. That will be their high end device to compete with the n1, desire, evo, incredible, iphone type devices. Big screen slate like devices. Could be wrong, but that is what I am personally hoping for.

[valentinomilikic]

@unlocker well,i hope so too,but i have nothing against symbian(except s60) and don't understand why are people hating symbian 3,the UI looks OK...

[ravian71]

@valentinomilikic this means i can have android in my nokia n8 too?

[valentinomilikic]

@ravian71 no,except if you are a 1st class hacker...

[Enteeh]

This is cool, you can also use it as a multimedia player on a nice screen.

hook it up to the power adaptor, hook the phone up to the tv (hdmi) and hook your HD drive up to the phone. instant movie theatre.

[vostokmusic]

Will the battery last more then 10 seconds?

[xPhylem]

@vostokmusic what an exageration

[vostokmusic]

@xPhylem HA

[Kijjakarn]

See the iPhone 4, and you will say good bye to Nokia, whose N8 will not compensate the mistakes made in the N97.

[chrisblueworld]

Fantastic!

[johnivantorres]

it loads up slow... T_T not an improved Symbian ^3 that people expected that can surpass of what iphone has... especially what the A4 processor can do.. O_O but in terms of features, this phone has it.. if your going for speed then iphone 4 wins... ^_^

[taimursheikh]

its so funny hes showing how to plug-in a cable in the phone, and then 2 weeks ago in the google keynote those fellas were talking about sending stuff wirelessly and cloud computing.

dont start hating me! i just find it funny :)

[EvolutionQY7]

god its still fucking slow...new nokia/symbian...old problems...

[yoalch007]

@EvolutionQY7

the n8 is still not complete... it is still suffering from unstable OS! or sumthing like that...

[265CoJ]

Pause at 1:23 ............ Clip art icon looks like a penis

[valentinomilikic]

@265CoJ yeah

[heoquayhp]

just another boring phone from Nokia

[valentinomilikic]

@heoquayhp what are you talking about,tell me a few reasons

[heoquayhp]

@valentinomilikic think about this, this is "just another phone"

nothing really special about it except the 12mbp camera, but even that is already achieved by sony erricson.

Not to mention it is running on Symbian, the worst platform for modern phone.

There is absolutely nothing new about this phone, definitely not for the price tag.

Nokia is really falling behind on their products,

[PlayActiv]

@heoquayhp symbian is free or nokia pay for that os?

[valentinomilikic]

who says this phone is laggy,prove it!!!!

[reciboi]

does anyone know when this comes out ?

[italyan1106]

0:55 iphoneeee :)

[killerluki]

Nokia! Bad gallery of old symbian!!! Extrem old and slow!

Wave, Calaxy S or iPhone 4 is the best, what you get better life ;-)

[valentinomilikic]

@killerluki wave has the same galery 

[killerluki]

@valentinomilikic

Naja, you look N8 very good, no same, but I see Wave very quickly and better! ;)

[valentinomilikic]

@killerluki wtf,first you said that it is slow an old,now you are saying that it is very good,could you please decide,also,samsung wave has bada,it is a good OS,but it has not an app store,no navigation service,horrible PC suite,and has 5mpx camera...

[killerluki]

@valentinomilikic

LOL! He has app store, with navigation and good PC Suite, but Nokia N8 is very old, because Symbian 3 is not new, where can you see new features???

Nokia is dead for me, Samsung makes copy of iPhone better and better, I have Samsung Wave, :-)

[valentinomilikic]

@killerluki app store is not avaible in europe,australia,south america,africa,Canada,midle America,only asia and the USA,and it is not a big one,sooo,the app store is not very usable,nokia n8 has not even come out and you say it is old,and it is the first sybian 3 device,so how it cant be new genious,also,samsung copies iPhone,nokia makes a totaly new phone that is way better than iPhone,and i dont care that nokia is dead for you.i am yust saying that you dont know what you are saying about!!!!

[killerluki]

@valentinomilikic

Nokia is the oldest firma of the time, since was 1986, you know. Many people buy other better phones since 2007, nokia goes at end and you like it cool, I know it. Nokia is good, but I don not like it, then you can buy it ;) No problem!

I take Samsung WAVE, he has very cool technology, because WAVE is 3x stronger than N8, I have say he 90 Millionen trangie per sec, Nokia 32 Millionen trangie per sec. But I hate Symbian 3 and very slow, sorry <.<

[valentinomilikic]

@killerluki look,nokia is the world leader in mobile technology and what does the age of nokia has to do with the mobile phones,also,I DO NOT CARE THAT YOU HAVE A SAMSUNG WAVE AND WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT NOKIA!!!!UNDERSTAND!?!?I am just saying that many things that you say are not true,like i told in the first sentance in this and other replies,and the worst thing is that you say nokia is crap but you have no idea about that what you are saying !!!

AND PLEASE,CHECK YOUR GRAMMAR!!!THNX.

[killerluki]

@valentinomilikic

Fuck you! You say Nokia is bad???? Samsung is not cool???

PS.: No, no, I am deaf!!!! No evil to me! ;-)

Yes, I am unterstand...LOL!

[valentinomilikic]

@killerluki i don't say nokia is bad,i also i do not say that samsung is not cool.i just think it is not OK to say so bad things about an OS and a device that is not even in the shops,first it can be even better,but even now beats iphone and i don't want any evil to you,why should i???

[johnivantorres]

@killerluki hehe yah.. its slow considering it from their latest... why doesnt they invent something equal or ever greater than iphone or htc OS to compensate the demand of power nokia phone wants...

[killerluki]

@johnivantorres

THX! Nokia, yes, sorry, he will be lose from the marking for Nr.1, but Nokia is TOP, is sexy then iphone 3Gs, I hate Apple LOL, but I have a bit problem with Symbian, it get always slow and slow...I will not be wait, because I have Wave ;)

Modd with Android and iOS can fix no problem.

[Xxadrian16]

the n8 looks has the same capabilities of an iphone, plus a huge 12 megapixel camera and the full flash internet browsing

[valentinomilikic]

@Xxadrian16 what about themes,widgets,3 startscreens,HDMI,usb universal port,free navigation,aluminium coverage...!!!,how can you compare these two phones,they are completely different by visual,technical and software specifications!!!

[AutofanTSI]

the n8 laggs too much!`

[07liberian]

@AutofanTSI Obviously It's A Prototype, That Means That Is'nt The Final Software Noob.

[AutofanTSI]

@07liberian

no, thats nokia, and they doesnt can make a really good software.

[07liberian]

@AutofanTSI No That's Not Nokia, My N900 Is Lighting Fast!

[arvindtrinity]

nothing here is new!!! we ve seen all this in the early iPhone back 2007.

I donno why phones have to copy that layout and format what apple had. why cant they come up with something of their own. its hard to define a format but easy to copy one. n8 sucks and lacks any new innovation. un-imaginative developers

[jeppyHan]

@arvindtrinity

seriously, only stupid grownups and kids who want gaming phone are going to buy an iphone...

[carLP640]

Can't wait for this..haha

[HyyRisque]

Finally Apple iPhone will have some competition, i never really liiked the big bulky nokia touch screens, but the N8 is just AWESOME it looks great, has awesome features. Nokia FTW!!!

[proteanview]

@HyyRisque Finally the iPhone will be able to multitask. When will the iPhone get a Xenon, FM radio, FM transmitter, UPnP? I think it's the iPhone that's been playing catch-up to the N-Series' multitasking, camera flashes, megapixels. Nokia needs to update it's user interface, though.

[HyyRisque]

@proteanview What i meant was that iPhone is easy to use, and looked sexy etc, but it lacked multitask etc. Meanwhile the Nokia touches had heaps of feautures but the touch screen was harder to use and the UI wasnt taht great, also it was fat brick like phones. that is what i meant, because i found the 5800 annoying and ugly.

[derty86]

Android is more better than Symbian!!

Symbian is dead

[obizz1234]

Think this phone with iOS/android 2.2 i would buy it

[Ibodnano]

My suggestion

remove menu to save screen real estate

show me the power of beautiful icons and theme

[Panhead1993]

@Ibodnano go for the iPhone instead then if you really want icons, N8 isnt for you

[Ibodnano]

The new ui will be seen in symbian 4

[beautifulgooal]

i can understand where the iphone fan boys and girls are coming from and i don't blame them for bashing nokia. Nokia has been using the same UI forever and they call it symbian 3 they need to step up the fucking graphic power on the icons and use more of the screen. All the little icons besides the photos can easily be integrated into options so we can see more of the screen.

[crossforced]

I seriously love the hardware of nokia..they are always years ahead of the compaction but their software sucks SOOO much...its way to laggy and outdated looking.......

nokia if u read this message....WHY DO U GUYS HAVE NO IMAGINATION? U GUYS MADE SUCH A GOOD PHONE BUT FUCKED IT UP AGAIN WITH THE OS....and this is why im NOT going to buy this....jesus switch over to windows phone7 if u have any brains left...(n95 4 life !!)

[Ibodnano]

Prototype

[Knowinglex]

i smell lag

[rajat77sada]

People who value their money would purchase the N8. Nokia's quality has gone up considerably since the N900. So just for Apples to Nokia Comparison..

1. Nokia N8 = memory, better sound, good browser, excellent camera, excellent video, intutive personalization, multiple colors and excellent phone with a stable network at a very reasonable price

2. Apple iphone: ok memory, great browsing, large # of applications, bad network, ok phone, ok music, ok camera, and $700+ total price..

[januto]

nokia here is my humble advice, I always have been a nokia user, since I used iphone OS I changed fast...please, change your OS, or you will slowly die, cause this OS really sucks a lot comparing to iphone Os...

[zoidbetag]

Remember guys, this is just the prototype....

[Ibodnano]

It is protottype phone

notice c0 at the right top corner?

[groodstrike]

so slooow..

[Javeedizeable]

where is Part 3 of 3?

[dirtykkkoon]

iPhone 4.

[DrToastwithchuck]

ruckelparade!

[o9zi]

laggy :(

[marvinsean]

i dont even have an iphone ;)

just a mac for like a month now and the ipod touch for like a year, and seriously its just ahead of the competition

apple is not dead, its bigger than ever

i really like this phone though and i guess it will be more affordable than the iphone

[Ibodnano]

I am tired of the iphone fanboy comments . Nokia please dont licence your patents to apple

[marvinsean]

lol i dont care if nokia sells more, so what?

more people use windows than mac but evryone knows mac is way superior



windows 7 has features mac had 10 yrs ago and abandoned them because they seemed stupid

iphone has stuff evryone tries to copy but as soon as they are close to the iphone BAM iPad BAM new iphone with loads of awesomeness

not trying to say nokia is bad, just dont pretend its better than the iphone ;)

[KumRuzvalt93]

@marvinsean LOL! and what cind of awesomeness has your new iphone 4 .. video call, multitacking , ivideo lol dont make jokes... nokia 6600(2003) had multitasking and nokia 6630(2004) had video call and video editor... n95(2006) had 5 mpix camera ... thats years from now ... JUST ADMIT IT IT'S SAME SHIT IN NEW PACKAGE

[Samarth916]

@KumRuzvalt93

In fact, I assert (on seeing the reviews) that N95 still makes better images than iPhone 4.

And one more thing, the device is below expectations... as Apple's shares have gone down during the presentation...

While we were expecting some 64 GB/ 80 GB memory ... What is this we get?

@Samarth916 dude no, u can't be serious, have u seen the iphone 4 videos and pics don't say that shit a
