Nokia N8 is one of the latest phone by Nokia Phone , It is now shown in Nokia Connections 2010 in Singapore. It seems a handy phone as shown in Abe’s Post. I have not seen the phone in Saudi Arabia Market. I will let you know the price as soon as it is available here ( Probably it will cost SAR 2,000Â ( Php 25,000 ) . I think one of it’s plus factor is 12MP autofocus camera w/ Carl Zeiss optics, Xenon flash.

Nokia N8 Photos
I saw this first in Abe’s Post
you know, for a smartphone with multitouch screen, 12 megapixel, and hdmi output 25,000 pesos is not bad. unlike the n97 which i have right now. back then it was like around 33k and look how crappy the phone is. many n97 users are complaining about the software and the sh*tty camera. i hope this upcoming phone won’t be as bad as my current phone most especially it will be the first phone to run a symbian^3 os
@Alfredo Ricafrente II,
Sad to know that you had a bad experience with N97, I am planning to request for N97 from Nokia to review after my review of Nokia Booklet 3g, Perhaps I will be able to understand the software problem that you have.
And I just hope N8 will solve those issues 🙂 or else people will be going to other option such as HTC or iPhone
I am saving for this phone. It has all the balls and whistles that I need for everyday activities.
I wonder how long the battery will last here in the Philippines.
12MP FTW!
Wow, the 12 Mega-Pixel Webcam is quite cool. Normally you have not such a good camera in a cell phone. The new iPhone will only have 5 Mega-Pixel and in stand-alone Digicams you also have not more the 12 or 14 Mega-Pixel. So I am looking forward to get one of these interesting Nokia N8, because I like the design too and I have always been a big Nokia Fan. The quality of this Mobiles is great.
@Toner,
12 Mega Pixel is really a plus factor of this phone.. Hope it is affordable when it arrive in our country
