Exclusive: Nokia N8 12MP unveiled

Live here at the Nokia Connections 2010 in Singapore, we have first dibs on the new Nokia N8 running the new Symbian^3 OS. First live photos and video after the jump.

The unibody aluminum design is pretty solid and feels tough.

The AMOLED display looks gorgeous — pretty crisp and bright — the images just pops out from the screen. The homescreen is customizable and has 3 panels, but unlike the Android, can slide between homescreens both on portrait and landscape mode.

Here’s a quick footage of how the Symbian 3 UI looks like:

Here’s a sample video recording using the Nokia N8 (just select 720p in the dropdown menu):

The Nokia N8 is set to be released in the Philippines in the 3rd quarter of this year. No price point has been palced but I’m hearing somewhere it will be in the vicinity of Php25k.

    all the time i used to read smaller articles or reviews
    which also clear their motive, and that is also happening with this piece of
    writing which I am reading here.

    Genuinely savored Exclusive: Nokia N8 12MP unveiled . You must watch your article comments. This data has genuinely been helpful for many of the readers however some look wide of the mark. An article a day keeps the comments flowing.

    I just bought N8 last sat, Nov. 13. It was carefully handled. Unfortunately, after two days the camera phone is already busted. I brought it in a nokia authorized repair center and followed it up after two days, they said it was sent to Makati (main office) for a higher level of repair. Is this what you call worth your hard-earned money? …. definitely NOT from my horrible experience. Imagine the inconvenience it caused me. I transferred all my contacts after I bought my unit and only to know that all files will be deleted. I have more than 500 contacts which I transferred via Bluetooth ( my old unit do not have applications to transfer files). I’m really DISAPPOINTED with this unit and Nokia does not care less to replace my unit. Is this my fault??? My fault is buying a DEFECTIVE unit. What about quality control?? I could have bought IPhone 4 instead. I can’t accept the fact that I’m bringing a two day old nokia unit for repair?? I have nokia units before and they never failed me. Why only now? Why this N8 unit?? The so-called best camera phone ever!!!!!!
