The much hyped release of the new Nokia N8 smartphone is almost here. The main reason for the hype is the incorporation of the brand’s new Symbian ^3 platform into the handset coupled with a huge variety of features and capabilities that will easily rival the likes of the iPhone and Blackberry. At the top of the list of features comes HDMI support for videos and a 12 mega pixel camera with a Carl Zeiss optimized lens. Although the HDMI connectivity will be non-standard, it does support Dolby Surround sound so movie playback on a large screen in your sitting room will be better than ever. With the ability to record high definition video comes a software package built into the phone enabling you to edit your home movies on the fly. The feature you immediately notice on the Nokia N8 is the huge 3.5 screen. Containing 16.7 million colors and a display resolution of 640 x 360 pixels, it really makes it standout from the plethora of other similar mobile phones. The Nokia N8 will offer touch-screen as already stated, plus also an accelerometer, a compass and a proximity sensor coupled with an ambient light detector. There is a mass of available applications in the online Ovi Store which will enable you to do things like updating your social networking sites, such as your Facebook and Twitter accounts, including the ability to upload photos to Facebook and synchronize Facebook events with your phones calendar. Another feature of the Nokia N8 that has been well highlighted by Nokia’s marketing department is the ability to watch Web TV from content providers such as CNN, E! Entertainment, Paramount and National Geographic. To summarize, the Nokia N8 promises to deliver the customer a very convincing rival of either the popular iPhone or Blackberry, containing features that bring it right to the forefront of modern mobile phone technology. Once it is released, there will be nothing to stop it helping Nokia maintain their status as the biggest mobile phone manufacturer on the planet.
