The Nokia N8, Nokia’s latest smartphone, intuitively connects to the people, places and services that matter most. With the Nokia N8, people can create compelling content, connect to their favorite social networks and enjoy on-demand Web TV programs and Ovi Store apps. Available in select markets during the third quarter of 2010, the estimated retail price of the Nokia N8 is EUR 370, before applicable taxes or subsidies. Thats straight from Espoo today, and we cant stop reading that spec sheet. The N8 packs a 12 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics, a Xenon flash and a sensor Nokia says rivals the ones in compact digital cameras. It shoots HD video too, and theres an editing suite right on the phone. Plug it into your TV over HDMI and you get HD playback with Dolby Digital Plus surround sound.
Inside its Symbian^3, the first device to run it, so you finally get multi touch, pinch zoom and flick scrolling on those customisable homescreens. Facebook and Twitter feeds sit right there on the homescreen, with status updates, photo uploads and calendar events syncing in. Free global Ovi Maps walk and drive navigation covers more than 70 countries. 16GB on board, microSD for more, a 3.5 inch touchscreen and that single piece anodised aluminium body in five colours.
Q3 is a long wait though. We’ll be hunting one down the moment it lands here, so stay tuned !!
