@EldarMurtazin: "Nokia N9 Hardware is near perfect, I like it."
A while back, Eldar didn’t seem too positive about the N9 and was actually supposed to leak his review early August. Whatever happened since then, he’s kept silent (no N8esque reveal) and was found today to say “Nokia N9 Hardware is near perfect, I like it.” NEAR PERFECT? And it’s Eldar saying this? About a [...]

Posted up on engadget with a Provocative title of ” Nokia N8 endorsed by homicidal maniac If you were following joshuatopolsky (head honcho engadget) last night he made some remarks about some insane Nokia Fanboy.

Gallery: Nokia N8 versus Panasonic TZ10 versus Samsung i8910 vs Nokia N82 (plus a xenon flash test)
Here’s a comparison set showing the Nokia N8 versus Panasonic TZ-10 versus Samsung i8910 HD versus the Nokia N82. The Panasonic TZ10 is a stonker of a megazoom point and shoot camera.

Video: Coverflow, Nokia N8 vs iPhone 4
On this video, symbianfrance found out that the Nokia N8 is faster than the iPhone 4 at browsing from albums A to Z. For example on the iPhone 4 you would need to scroll with your fingers like 15 times or more (depending how many albums you have) just to reach the first or last [...]
Video: Nokia N8 versus HTC G2 (T-Mobile G2) – Killer audio from the N8
An overlooked feature in Nokia Nseries phones is their distinct ability to capture crystal clear audio during video recording. It’s often ignored but it plays a big part in the video playback experience. How often have you had to listen to tinny, screechy, shitty audio playback because the phone (and often digital camera) could not [...]
Video: Answer to Gizmodo's "Usability test" of the Nokia N8
Gizmodo recently did a “test” of the Nokia N8, plying the N8 onto the hands of a user who has most likely never touched a symbian phone, and one that has the finger speed of an arthritic quadriplegic. Stupidly for gizmodo, Usability is one thing the N8 is great at. It IS a usable handset. [...]
The Truth about engadget's Nokia N8 versus iPhone 4
UPDATE: ENGADGET HAS CLOSED OFF COMMENTS AND CENSORED POSTS, DELETING A FEW HUNDRED THAT POINT OUT THEIR POSTS’ FAILINGS. A few of you have sent this link to us (adnan/n#o#r#u#l#e#s/a few others through comments).

Video: MobileBurn's Video Review (First Impressions) of the Nokia N8
Michael Oryl, my old boss back in the days of MobileBurn foruming has taken the main seat in reviewing the Nokia N8 (and rightfully so – as it’s often someone else now doing the Nokia reviews) Michael seems to be unaware of the UBS-to go function, thinking the adapter was for a keyboard. Anodized metal, [...]

Four months ago we found out that a bunch of really cool EA games were coming to the Nokia N8 in full 3D. One of the least demonstrated is the Sims 3 – (the first iteration, Sims 1 was the best selling PC game of all time). Unlike the S60 5th Edition version, Sims 3 [...]
Video: Nokia N8 Review from Mobile Tech Review.
Here’s a review from the other side of the Pond, but a very fair and balanced one from Lisa at Mobile Tech Review (USA).

Video: Nokia N8 AMOLED versus iPhone 4 IPS LCD
Quick video showing the N8′s AMOLED against the iPhone 4′s IPS LCD. Now, this is “just” the N8, without that blinding CBD AMOLED found in the Nokia E7 or C6-01. Colours look great on both of them. I love iPhone’s fluid rotation. We have that on Nokia Photo Viewer app and N900′s photo viewer (to [...]
Video: Nokia N8, RC Car and 3G Video Calling; Wireless HDMI transmitter and Quadrocopter.
RC Car + N8 + Video Calling. Get yourself a remote controlled vehicle of some sorts, mount the N8 and activate video calling. From the recipient caller, you can see what the N8 sees, and then from that you can control the RC Car. What confuses me though is that in the video, I have [...]
