HD Videos: Nokia N8 Sample videos – low light and outdoors 720p
Here are some sample videos from the Nokia N8 uploaded by silverato3428 – The first three supposedly in low light, and the fourth outdoors. Be sure to click the 720p HD version. I’m curious to know how the N8 is able to resolve that text. It seems a little too clear for fixed focus video [...]

I’m sure you have seen other videos about the Nokia N8′s multitasking but this one is recent (august 27 ). In this video the N8 multitask 15 applications.

At the Nokia USA website, the sole Maemo 5 phone from Nokia, the multitasking beast with killer web browser and customizability options is at a rock bottom price of $200 USD! Bargain! But it’s only for a limited time. What’s the catch? Well you pay $480 up front first, and hand in your (or any [...]
N8 as a possible HTPC
We all remember way back in April when one of Nokia’s product managers did a short hands-on with the N8 and demonstrated the ability to connect to bluetooth devices such as a keyboard. Well we’ve gotten a tip on another video demonstrating a rather similar set-up. A regular old Nokia SU-8W bluetooth keyboard and a [...]
Video: Super smooth Pinch and Zoom in Ovi Maps demoed in 25 minute Nokia N8 Truck in Hamburg
In all the Nokia N8 demoes we’ve seen thus far, Ovi Maps has only been shown to zoom with the zoom bar. Multitouch is available on the N8 but it was not yet working for Ovi Maps (though it was mentioned to be coming soon) In this 25 minute video (Skip to 24:05) you’ll see [...]
Near-final N8 firmware run through
With rumors circling the internet that the final, release version of the N8 firmware is scheduled to be finished by next week (crosses fingers) The latest video that I found on the site, http://tv.mediaprovider.se should hopefully give a pretty clear insight into the sort of performance and applications (read: games) we can expect to see when [...]
C7 preview
The all knowing Eldar has posted another preview of a Nokia device, this time the S^3 powered C7. As is customary he speaks little to the functionality and more to the flashiness of the interface, once again stamping on it’s lack of novelty or spice. His conclusion? “Those who are accustomed to Symbian and know [...]
Video: Nokia N8 commercials
After the Nokia N8 event, some new commercials appeared on the internet. They were in different websites. So I uploaded all of them to youtube. There you go. Enjoy! There are two other videos, one here and second there. They are not in English. But if you understand their language or just wanna see the [...]
Another N8 preview
www.Tech65.org managed to get a quick hands-on with the soon to be release Nokia N8. Though there isn’t much shown with the test, the main takeaways are that the browser isn’t AS slow and terrible as people would have expected and the portrait keyboard needs a LOT of work. There seems to be little to [...]
Video: Nokia N8 event
Here’s 4 videos about a Nokia event promoting the Nokia N8. Of course all these videos are recorded with the Nokia N8. Enjoy! There’s also a hands-on by Endgadget Chinese. The only thing new in this hands on is the demo video and thats about it. If you wanna check out pictures of this event [...]
Pixelpipe on the N8
Stumbled across this video on dailymobile showing an upgraded pixelpipe application with the ability to upload not just pictures and videos to a variety of online services such as picasa and facebook but also regular files such as PDF’s to dropbox accounts. Give it a look! P.S. No information on the size of the files [...]

Swype coming soon for Nokia N8
I am sure you guys all now what Swype is. When you see it being used it looks unreal because it shouldn’t be possible or it looks like a trick by David Blaine, the news is encouraging though if it is true. Swype usually do deals with carriers or manufacturers rather than through an app [...]
Nokia N8 Symbian 3 Overview
I came across this interesting video of the Symbian 3 interface being shown off. I have noticed something in all those UI overview video also, the little nugget is that if you tap any button on the interface too quick it doesn’t register, now you might call that a bug or something but my iPod [...]
Video: MeeGo handset UX on Nokia N900 – More widgets and multitasking
Here’s another look at the latest build of MeeGo handset UX on the Nokia N900. [click for previous vid] Scrolling looks buttery smooth (and fast, no more endless flicking) in some places though choppy in others. At 07:39 you’ll see “speech bubble” what looks to be a threaded messaging of sort, and at 10:40 you’ll [...]
Poll: How fast is your mobile internet?
I don’t know about you, but I’m hooked on mobile internet and always being ‘online as it happens’. With the Nokia N900, MicroB and FireFox Mobile, the only thing that limits me getting to the sites I want is a signal. In the UK, O2 and T-Mob have been doing a fairly decent enough job [...]
Angry Birds on the Nokia N8
Angry Birds without doubt is one of the best mobile games out now. So when one of our lovely readers offered to film himself playing Angry Birds on the N8 and asked us to post it I though HELL YEAH !!! So here it is (took me ages to upload I was determined though ) [...]
Meego Tablet UI concept
Meego has been an interesting new OS so far already being written off by the usual suspects mainly because Nokia are the main customers so to say, but people forget that there are a lot of partners that comitted themselves to use Meego such as the Automotive powerhouses from Germany such as Mercedes Benz, BMW, [...]
Gallery: Sea of (Nokia) phones at Green Hills, Philippines. iPhones and BlackBerrys too :)
In the Philippines, there are more malls here than I care to remember. But one of the ones you just have to visit as a gadget geek is Green Hills. My favourite part is the ‘Changee’ or open market type thing (I have no idea how to translate). There are hundreds of these little stalls, [...]
