Software that is used as the basis of the Nokia N8 is the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic & Nokia X6 with major changes in the addition of multiple homescreen, widgets and user interface display. In terms of materials, use of full metal case with a scratch-resistant paint in high endnya anodised to make an impression is very pronounced.
For its size, because this smart phone with a built in camera and Xenon Flash 12MP then in terms of thickness, this device is not a super-slim device like the iPhone or Samsung Galaxy S.
Nokia N8 also do not have a battery that we can remove easily as mobile phones in general. Full metal casing completely cover all meetings bodynya so if we do not have a special screwdriver, we will not be able to access the battery with ease. Place the microSD card slot and its own SIM card is located on the left side of the Nokia N8. To the right side there is the camera button and volume adjustment buttons. The buttons are most often accessed by the user, laid by Nokia at the top. Here there is a mini port for HD, 3.5mm headphone jack and power button. While the bottom lies the port for the charger.
Overall, the design, size and placement of buttons, make the smart phone is comfortable to grip and we can access all functions easily with one hand.
As mentioned previously, the Nokia N8 using the latest OS, namely: Symbian ^ 3. This new system created with the aim of making mobile phone touch screen featured Nokia output to compete with Apple and Google products output.
First of all from the main view of the new system (home screen). We can only choose three types of display, and we can only fill it with widgets of the same size. It seems the reason for this is that the widget display in landscape mode and portrait still look neat and nice. Unfortunately it looks too simple and was impressed merely functional without being offered a more attractive appearance, for example in terms of wallpaper & choice to replace 9 types of home screen like in OS Android.
Fortunately 680MHz ARM 11 processor is very adequate and make this smart phone can work very well without any lag, lag or crash, although the size of processor does not seem special. Multi-tasking can also be done on the Nokia N8 and can be accessed in a way typical of Nokia, which hold a little longer the main menu button.
One feature that is pretty cool is to press the battery icon, then the system will display the Wi-Fi networks are available, the USB connection and alarm functions. Unfortunately we have selected widget can not be transferred between the home screen with one another, so if we want to customize home screen three available then we will spend plenty of time to delete and add the widgets available.
To own a phone call the resulting sound was clear and well so that the recipient and we as listeners can make calls without constraint. Video calling also works well, especially when we use the Wi-Fi connection.
Social Networking
The options available in smart phones is to social networking as Twitter and Facebook is just innate. Actually this is not really a constraint, because both applications are used most often in people today. Unfortunately accessing it is quite complicated and troublesome because we have to do sign in on Ovi Nokia account to use it .... The absence of the option to post the photos we take directly from the camera N8 to Facebook or Twitter also makes sharing photos seem less practical.
Music
Music Player which is used on the Nokia N8 is the default Nokia music player that did not experience a major upgrade for a long time, but because it is usually only concerned with music listeners can play music files without any problems and easily accessing it then it does not become significant problems.
There are icons on the pages music player looks great, clear and user friendly. Here there is also the option to view more details about the music played and the album artnya. The resulting sound quality N8 marginally good enough, but has not been able to rival the sound quality produced by Samsung Galaxy S.
Another positive value in the Nokia N8 is the availability of an FM transmitter that is very rarely included in other mobile phone although it is quite useful.

The resulting sound quality N8 marginally good enough, but has not been able to rival the sound quality produced by Samsung Galaxy S.
Another positive value in the Nokia N8 is the availability of an FM transmitter that is very rarely included in other mobile phone although it is quite useful.
Video
Almost all video files to run well on Nokia N8, but the best quality seemed to come from WMV files that produces a perfect audio performance. The picture quality itself is quite good with its OLED display provides a sufficient contrast ratio.
In accordance with his claim, this smart phone is really capable of producing a full Dolby 5.1 surround sound (pretty amazing for the size of a handset).
Connection
Another useful feature on the Nokia N8 is the ability to connect and access external hard drive directly via USB slots, even though the file exchange is quite slow for large files.
Besides a full range of its high-end connectivity, such as: Bluetooth 3.0 with A2DP, Wi-Fi up to 802.11n, assisted GPS, 10.2Mbps HSDPA & mini HDMI port is very interesting and arguably could satisfy all user wishes.
Nokia mobile phone connectivity with PCs that are often problematic previously also been repaired at the Nokia N8, especially if we are users of Windows 7. Currently, just by plugging the cable from the PC to the N8, smart phones will be instantly recognizable with ease and variety of options that can be done instantly appear without having to run any application program.
This plus the other is the use of this smartphone as a modem. We still have to go through Ovi Suite, but after connecting to Ovi then simply select 'Connect to the Internet' in the tools menu & direct modem can be enabled.
