subject: Stylishly Sexy: The Nokia N8 [print this page] When you first lay your eyes on the Nokia N8, the first thing that comes to mind is sexy. Although this device still sports the familiar candy bar form factor, it is able to stand out from the ordinariness of most Smartphones.
Perhaps it is brought about by its edgy appeal or maybe its because of its eye catching colour schemes. Whatever it may be, the N8 will surely bring a smile to your face as well.
All About Appeal
Nokia has garnered the reputation of coming out with mobiles that arent only highly functional, but truly stylish as well. The same can definitely be said about the Nokia N8 which brings forth a swagger that is unmatched by any other run of the mill Smartphone out there. From its amazing high resolution 3.5 AMOLED capacitive touch screen display, all the way to the mobiles sleek finish, the N8 screams style all the away.
It has a compact design that makes the device even more attractive. It measures only 113.5 x 59.1 x 12.9 mm and has a weight of only 135 grams. What makes the N8 even more appealing is its sharp yet rounded edges, which combines perfectly with the mobiles skewed chins. As mentioned before, this attractive Smartphone is available in several colour schemes including orange, blue, dark gray, silver white, and green.
Style and Substance
A lot of mobiles fall into the trap of investing too much time and effort on their physical appearance and somehow forgetting about what truly matters the actual mobile features of the device. Nokia cannot be blamed for being one of these manufacturers and the N8 definitely upholds the companys reputation.
The Nokia N8 has an amazing five band network compatibility on the 3G HSDPA network. Data connectivity options on this device are also complete on the N8 as it features support for EDGE, GPRS, and Wi-Fi, of course. The device holds an impressive internal memory of 16GB which you can still double by adding an external microSD memory card.
Symbian still remains to be Nokias OS of choice and its version ^3 thats on the N8. The mobiles 680 MHz processor should be more than capable of handling all the processing requirements of the installed operating system.
Multimedia Mad
Despite all that jazz, we havent even gotten to the best part about the Nokia N8. Undoubtedly, this mobiles claim to fame has got to be its super powerful monster of a camera. At an astonishing 12 Megapixels, the N8s snapper matches the prowess of the most powerful mobile cameras in the industry today.
It packs in features such as Carl Zeiss optics, an ND filter, a Xenon flash, and a 1/1.83 censor size. It can capture images at an amazing 4000 x 3000 as well as videos of 720p@25fps quality.
Another added bonus on the N8 is its TV outlet via HDMI which is compatible with 720p videos. It even comes with a Dolby Digital Plus sound engine which guarantees sound quality of the highest level.
