Why can't nokia put a 1ghz processor into this phone?

Haven't they learn their mistakes when they build the 5800?

admittedly, nokia hasn't come up with an iphone-killer, not that it doesn't want to. by now nokia must've realized there's very little future in symbian. only very few software houses developed programs for it. symbian games and apps are pathetic at best. nokia can't even come up with a decent dual-sim phone. yet its market share is still one big pie because of its phone design and physical features (n8's camera, for example).

 

if nokia wants to put in a powerful processor, it should be complemented with a more powerful os.

been using nokia n8 for 4 months now. my friend already had an iphone 3 and the other, an iphone 4. here are my notes on the 3 phones:

- nokia n8 is the cheapest of the 3

- nokia n8 capacity can be upgraded by putting additional storage cards

- the touchscreen response time for nokia is slower than that of the iphone. however you can boost response time by disabling the theme, albeit removing the animation when switching between screens

- you can download hundreds of free softwares from nokia ovi maps, more than what you can have from iphone

- the 12mpixel camera is superb than the 5 mpixel of iphone, compare them side by side, zooming in on the captured images, n8 has clear and crisp images while in iphone they start to pixelate both at the same level of zoom

- the hd video capacity is stunning. one time i had trouble with my videocam battery and used my n8 to capture the action, yet nobody at the office noticed the difference

- the hdmi connection to tv is great, what you see on the n8 screen is same on the tv, i even connected a mouse on the adaptor for the usb and its just like a small computer on a big screen

- the best thing i like on n8 that is a great help to me is the free nokia ovi maps. i used to go to different locations and the free ovi map helps a lot in locating the venue, complete with voice narration. you can also check you car speed limit without looking at the speedometer. i also downloaded all the different languages which is fun coz the taxi driver, regardless of nationality, can understand the directions.

congratulations on being a happy user of Ovi Maps. but if you use it quite often you'll notice that the detailed/complete maps are only manila, cebu and baguio. the rest of the country's towns and cities have only 3 streets at most. database is so thin it's a waste of time to type in your destination. if you get hooked in gps, i suggest you try the rpmap (downloadable in www.roadguide.ph) in a windows-based samsung phone, then you'll be twice (or thrice) happy

Has ovi maps improve?

AFAIK it is nothing compared to google maps.

Slow compare to same price category ng ibang brand, and the screen resolution pero sa user interface? panalo to. and it look more classy than others.

Sold my Galaxy S2. It was fast, but had flaws like with sound on some apps causes apps to force close(like Star Legends, for example). I got the Galaxy Nexus (Android 4.0 ICS) and I am loving it. Pure android with no bloatware (like Samsung store and apps) or GUI (Samsung Touchwiz or HTC Sense)... just a pure Android experience. It might seem like a step down (5mp camera instead of 8mp of S2, but Nexus has "Zero-lag Shutter"), but the fact that it is the Google Android flagship phone this year means that Android is optimized to run on that hardware and it gets the updates first. Closest thing to Iphone hardware/software optimization.

 

The S2 will get the ICS 4.0 update this Spring, but only after they get all their Samsung customization into it. Then, the S3 should be out later in the year...again with Samsung's software locked into it. I'm getting to the point that I have to trade up my cell every 6 months to keep up...
