I've had my Nokia N8 since May 2011. It's a reliable handset that you can count on all day long. However, I think that the N8 could have been a legendary phone if it had Android instead of Symbian. As a N8 owner, I find it very frustrating when I can't make Skype or Tango video calls while other cheaper Samsung or Sony phones can. The hardware makes the N8 a unique smartphone (FM transmitter, HDMI output, 12MP camera, premium build) but its OS killed it, literally speaking.
I am using Nokia n8 since 2 yrs, I just love this phone and if possible I would never change it, there are many good reasons for which I still use this phone 1) awesome sound quality with Dolby digital surround sound other latest phones in market don't have it, I have tried many other smartphones but never able to find such an awesome sound quality which gives you home theater 3D sound experience like your sitting in movie theater, you can actually have a demo in which you can hear the sound from 360 degrees. Also I have installed the equilizer app from which you can control bass and treble effects which makes it even more awesome to play all kinds of music, like pop, rock, trance, etc's. 2) Best picture quality with crystal clear screen, I prefer to watch movies and videos on my phone rather than on my computer or LED TV because its more clearer and brighter than any other device.3) 12 megapixels camera which gives you good high quality images and there is one more benefit i.e. you can use it as a weapon for your personal protection, I have personally broken the heads of atleast two people and it still works, it is as good as stone never breaks. I would really never change this phone if I need to I would still keep it with me as a music player, may be the OS is slow as campare to android phone but above good qualities wants me to keep it with me.
Amazing resistance to almost all punishment. Excelent camera even against 2013 competition. Great navigation tool. The only real problem with this phone is the vanishing memory c bug, that forces a reset every four to six months.
