1. The name. N8. This is the first Nseries with
a single digit in it’s name. And it’s not ANY number. It’s number “8″. It’s a big and bold statement. In Asian culture, number 8 is associated with “GOOD LUCK” and “PROSPERITY”. All the big online media coverage before and after it’s official announcement shows a signal that Nokia is still in the game and will charge at all cost to defend it’s throne. 2. It’s colours. It’s available in a family of colours. You dont like Black? Choose the Blue one or if you are not into Orange, you can pick the Green one. To my eyes, all the colours looks gorgeous. Together with the anodised aluminium body, N8 looks like a piece of an alien spacecraft! Shiny.. and metal… and looks exclusive… and unique! 3. Strong Multimedia support. In my opinion, Symbian has always been underestimated by all manufacturers especially Nokia. In recent memory, only Samsung i8910 OmniaHD and Sony Ericsson Satio can be considered as having some of the best Multimedia hardware amongst Symbian smartphones. With N8, finally Nokia give Symbian justice by putting superb hardware : - Capacitive OLED screen, check - 12 Megapixel camera powered by Carl Zeiss optics and Xenon flash, check - High definition video recording with stereo sound, check - HDMI support, check - Dolby Digital sound, check - 16 GB internal storage, check - FM Transmitter, check As an independent writer and blogger, as well as producer of audio and video contents, I need a powerful device that is able to grab important moments without fuss. For example, I can attend any launch events and record high quality videos and snap photos to be published on i-Symbian.Com for all of you to see 4. I haven never seen any other smartphones support USBToGo. For Symbian, it is actually a standard which was included in Symbian OS v9.5 specification which was announced somewhere in 2007. With USBToGo, transferring huge files (such as videos taken using N8′s 12 mp camera, obviously) to USB thumb-drive or USB hard- drive is easy. N8 sales package will include a cable that will act as the connector to the external USB device. This is supercool! 5. Powerful processors. A 680 MHz main procecessor which powers the overall operations of the N8 and another processor dedicated to the graphical needs. This opens many possibilities. One of them, hopefully, is more compelling and efficient user experience. Application developers will be able to create richer eye-candies for their applications. In short, Symbian applications will look better. 6. 256 MB RAM with Writable Demand Paging. This will make N8 fast and stable to cope with many applications running in the background. As one of the enhancements in Symbian^3 combined with visual task switcher to ease jumping from one application to another, multitasking experience on Symbian will be pushed to the next level. 7. Built in Ovi and Nokia applications and services. One of Nokia’s strengths (or weaknesses, depends on how you look at), is services and applications developed around Ovi ecosystem. N8 comes with Ovi Store, Ovi Maps and Ovi Contacts integrated as well as Nokia Messaging Email, Nokia Messaging Chat and Nokia Messaging Social Networks. All these will make a more complete user experience. For me, Ovi Maps, Ovi Store and Nokia Messaging Emails are the must haves. 8. Symbian^3. As the world’s first Nokia smartphone powered by the new Symbian^3 operating system, N8 itself is a history in the making. Many people asspciated it with Symbian^1 aka S60 5th Edition but they never consider all improvements under the hood that make Symbian^3 a force to reckon with. It’s not the make-up in the interface department only that makes Symbian^3 different from Symbian^1 but the Operating System has been carefully open sourced and enhanced. Look at the single-click direct interaction, easy internet connection and supports for a wide variety of processor related stuff. To those who are short-sighted and made early negative judgement before even testing Symbian^3, please do more research and do some reading. Dont simply write-off Symbian^3 without real hard facts and hands on experience. One important feature of Symbian^3 is it’s backward compatibility with older Symbian versions because it’s still supporting AVKON apps and also future compatibility with Qt runtime. This is only one of many more enhancements and improvements in Symbian^3 that should be considered. 9. It’s a Nokia. Do not underestimate what this Finnish behemoth can do. Whatever bad reputations they made in the past years especially in the case of N97 Classic, they have shown that they are willing to offer free firmware improvements. The fact that Nokia is the major contributor to the success of Symbian in the smartphone market is also a proof that Nokia is doing more than other Symbian manufacturers. We’ve seen Nokia releasing enhancements after enhancements unlike Samsung and Sony Ericsson who seems are not bothered to support those who bought their Symbian products. N8, in this regards, will hopefully not be abandoned by Nokia and will be improved further. Who knows if Nokia decided to backport some Symbian^4 features to N8 in the near future? 10. The price! EUR370 is more or less RM1565.00. It can be considered as very affordable. Not that far from the introduction price of Nokia 5800 Xpress Music 2 years ago. Normally, for a flagship, Nokia’s price is more than EUR500. This is really unbelievable! Well. That’s my excitement and hope for Nokia N8. It’s been a while since I was this excited about a Symbian product and to be honest, I cant wait! BRING IT ON Nokia N8 FTW!!! |
