Nokia N8 Product Review With Features & Full Specifications

Nokia has Officially released full specifications and images of its latest product called Nokia N8. The Nokia N8 claimed as the first device launched by Nokia to be powered by the brand new Symbian^3 platform. The Nokia N8 will come in five eye catching colors and the price tag on this device will be around $492 (before the usual local taxes and subsidies).

In the Official Nokia Blog, they said that the biggest feature on the Nokia N8 is its 12-megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics and Xenon flash. It features a substantially larger sensor than any ever used in any other Nokia device – even bigger than many found in dedicated cameras.

Onboard there’s also three customisable homescreens that can be loaded with applications and widgets and flicked through by a swish of the finger. There’s also improved 2D and 3D graphics for a faster and more responsive UI, greater memory management and a visual task manager.

Of course, the Nokia N8 comes with access to the full range of Ovi services and it’s Nokia’s first smartphone to be integrated with Qt. Got and idea for an app? Qt is a software development environment that makes it a cinch to build apps and deploy across the Symbian and other software platforms.
