aksu, 16 Dec 2021Still have this phone. It was ahead of its time.What a nostalgia trip reading through these comments again.
After my departure from living on these forums after getting the phone some people claimed I was a Nokia agent or disappointed and disappeared cos I had hyped the phone up for nothing :D
Well, it's been 13 years. I used the phone for quite exactly 2 years until the Lumia 920 was released. Like some other recent commenters, I still think this phone was ahead of it's time. It could've used some more power to take use of all that, but it was a product of it's time for sure.
Mine still works. I had to replace the bottom plastic "cap" once cos it broke when I dropped the phone. The camera is still amazing by most current standards, but slow as hell compared to current standards.
13 years later I can still swear that I was very happy with the phone and had no real issues with the phone, even if it wasnt perfect. I also was not a paid Nokia shill, just a fan cos Nokia mobile phones originate from my home city and like every one else in my city, I've worked in that plant. Never for Nokia directly though, I was a security guard and got to see these devices first hand before they even released.
If I had to guess, the factory in Finland was making phones mostly for European market and this factory is probably to this day the highest quality factory for mobile phones on earth. Of course it doesnt exist anymore cos Nokia shut down its mobile phone business. The asian made Nokias for the rest of the world were apparently not as high quality, which of course is sad for those who feel like they got a whole different product than me :D

aksu, 16 Dec 2021Still have this phone. It was ahead of its time.Greatest of its time and age! Camera is still incredible. I am using this as my secondary phone since 2019, and using a Nokia 7.1 since 2019 as my primary phone. Nokia was and is the best quality you can get.

A camera king... moreok, few days ago i bought nokia n8 for 35euros, in very good condition. And i started shooting same pics with nokia n8 and my samsung a52 (a52 arguably has the best mid range camera sistem today)...
and guess what? Exept of the megapixels (12mp nokia vs 64mp samsung), nokia photos looked more natural, macro mode with xenon flash was way better!! believe it ir not, night portraits with xenon flash was way sharper and detailed on n8 than on a52!! Overall, ofcourse, samsung camera is 12 years younger, in many scenarios was better, video recording is apsolutely out of comparation.... but, guys! What a carl zeiss camera monster this was 12 years ago..
O yeah, music player on nokia is 3x better than on new sasmsung ( nothing to do with headset), biger bass, clear, deeper sound... Nokia N8 was multimedia king in 2010, and looks so desirable even today.
Get one!
