Nokia N8: Coming Soon!

September 14, 2010 By Editor

WATFORD, England, September 13, 2010 — It’s been a long while coming, but the Nokia N8 ( http://www.mobiles.co.uk/nokia-n8.html) is due imminently and it would seem that Nokia have extremely high hopes and a large marketing budget in place for the N8.

 The latest marketing tactics employed for the launch of the latest Nokia Mobile Phone (http://www.mobiles.co.uk/nokia-mobile-phones.html) have seen them recruit Baywatch star Pamela Anderson, whereby anybody can win the chance to star alongside Pamela Anderson, in a short film that will be filmed using only the Nokia N8 and its HD Video Recording capabilities.

The N8 (http://www.mobiles.co.uk/nokia-n8.html) will be Nokia’s flagship phone and as a result, boasts an impressive specification list which includes a 3.5 inch AMOLED capacitive touchscreen and is actually the first handset from the Finnish manufacturer to be touting AMOLED technology, which essentially offers better viewing angles, true to life colours and is also much more efficient when displaying darker colours than standard LCD panels. The N8 will accept multi-touch inputs, meaning that pinch-to-zoom browsing is taken care of with ease.

The N8 also touts a twelve megapixel camera, which will capture images at an incredible 4000 x 3000 pixels thanks to the Carl Zeiss Optics Lens and also includes autofocus and a Xenon flash. As previously mentioned, the N8 is capable of recording videos at 720p HD quality and there is also an HDMI output meaning that you can plug it in to an HD Ready TV to watch videos in full HD glory.

In terms of connectivity, the N8 is far from lacking. HSDPA, Wi-Fi, a-GPS and Bluetooth make up what is fast becoming the standard on all modern day Smartphones and are all included on the N8 as well as a micro USB port, another technology which is fast becoming a standardised inclusion on all Smartphones and tablets alike. On-board memory sits at 16GB offering plenty of space to store the HD videos recorded on the device as well as music, films, games and pretty much anything else you’d expect to be able to store on your Smartphone (http://www.mobiles.co.uk/smartphones.html) .

The N8 will run on the latest incarnation of Nokia’s proprietary Operating System, Symbian^3 and the ARM 11 680 MHz processor coupled to 256MB of RAM will be sure to keep things running smoothly. Symbian^3 itself is said to take quite a few of its design cues from the Android Operating System, with multiple customisable home screens which support both applications and widgets. It also supports true multi-tasking, meaning you can happily be browsing the internet and checking your emails whilst listening to your favourite music, with the ability to switch between applications with a mere ‘flick and a tap’.
