Nokia Philippines will have a media launch for the Nokia N8 on October 15 and has also opened pre-orders for their flagship smartphone, the Nokia N8.
The suggested retail price — Php23,699 (pretty good price point IMO).
If interested, click here to post your pre-orders.
Last week, I asked readers if they’re buying the Nokia N8 when it comes out. Now that the price has been revealed, have you changed your mind on getting the N8?
Gizmodo doesnt give fair user review to nokia n8,iphone 4 is good phone but on its price its the specs is not enough for the price you payed for…
So what if homosexual horse ako?
Wow, three posts in a row from Mr. Yan.
Someone’s “defensive”
@abe
Paki remove mo lahat ng testimonial na nasa comments ni OVI.
@OVI
Thanks you so much but no need to post that testimonials here kasi its looks like a spam. At may commenter kasi dito na hindi nakapasa pagiging lawyer. Judge kasi ng Judge without proof.

@Steve Jobs
Hndi po ako si OVI. Bakit ko naman ikakalat testimonial ng mga client ko. Para lang mapansin.. I dont need attention para magka client. At hindi ako patay gutom magka client. At higit sa lahat hindi ako disperado.
@OVI
bakit mo naman po post dito ang testimonial page ng website ko.
Wow! That’s a very good starting price considering the specs(12mp with xenon,720p video capture and playback with divx and xvid support,usb OTG,amoled display,anodized aluminum unibody and more…) and when the E7 will hit the shelve with almost the same aľd
Haha! Me too! Even though if it’s just a midrange phone, I’ll sell my Galaxy S for this! :P
Very tempting. I thought NASA 30k range ang N8 due to it’s excellent camera. High probability na I consider ko sya more than any android phone
I will do an Odeng and wait for the E7 as well. My next Nokia will definitely be Touch Screen.
@OVI
Pakyu. You’re only that faggot Jiro Yan in hiding.
@abe
That’s why i told you before, this is the most cost effective phone i’ve ever seen

Nice phone.. I may consider upgrading my pesky N5800 with this one..
N8 Video capability.

nice video by Jay Montano in response to gizmodo. Thanks Jay!

the 1200mah battery will last because symbian does not extract unnecessary juice for the bling blings of the user interface unlike ios and android as i read…
Even the battery is 1200mah, it can almost stay as longer as 1500mah on some handsets. Pretty amazing for the improvement of CPU and GPU in-built!
Midrange handset at its best! Even it won’t match the speed of gHz handsets these days, it can still match up with its specs over price!
yes I’ll buy one to replace my 5800
No. Will not buy one.
For sure early or mid next year, a new set of superphones will come out… and by that time, this N8 will further slash it’s price.
After nyo bumili nito lalabas meego… iyak!
do check out a head-to-head battle of N8 with Blackberry and iPhone here http://gizmodo.com/5653621/gizmodo-hq-video-throwdown-how-usable-is-nokias-new-n8
but of course the price is a big factor too..
I’m definitely getting one. Been waiting for this!
And now… I am battling with an iPhone 4 and N8. N8 is darn cheap with great specs. Tempting…. Will I cancel my iPhone 4 order for an N8? cant decide yet. I will sure buy this one if my iPhone 4 order will be rejected by Apple Hk.

Philippines is getting an early christmas gift. Everywhere else are more expensive. Europe 430 euro!
I still prefer E7
Yup!

If it run Android then I’d get one.
to those who pre-ordered…..how would you know you qualified for the free 16GB??? there’s no mention in the pre-ordered receipt…..
Lined up at the fort and got my 5800 during the launch for 20k….will surely get this one…..
but i really like to have my first android phone!!!
Would also have to depreciate the BB and ip4 for at least a year.
Is it worth to also wait for the N9 thats coming soon with the new OS?
Ya, good thing i didnt push thru getting the N97 last year, especially the special edition “Raoul” version–that was around php31,000.
napa OMG ako sa mura.
based sa mga online reviews, the camera of n8 can match the quality and features of a dedicated digicam that worths 15K+.. not to mention the smartphone OS, 16GB storage, cellphone features, HDMI support,hD recordings, dvix supports, web capabilities and a decent processor with dedicated GPU..
considering that n97 mini was priced around 25k last year… im gonna w8 till this phone hit the 20k below mark.. wow…
@Jiro
Pakyu
iOS or Android
I noticed that if you preorder with Nokia Philippines, the available colors are black and silver.
On the Smart postpaid preorder (which only lists unlimited data plans, it seems and forces you to get one) also has Orange in addition to black and silver.
Just in case you wanted a different color, remember that. If you’re getting one, that is.
I was contemplating whether to preorder or not, the green color is not available in our country while the orange is not available yet for pre-order
@simplynice coz Nokia N8 has AMOLED screen and is not battery-eater!
Nokia N8 is already available beginning now October 08, 2010 for only Php23,699 with free 16GB thumbdrive for the first 800 pre-orders! So hurry! Just pre-ordered mine color silver. Available colors for pre-orders are dark steel grey and light silver!
Yes, pretty good price. Considering the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic (note: NOT flagship phone) was P19,990.00 almost two years ago during its launch.
The N8 battery is just 1200 mAh Li-Ion battery…BIG FAIL! :P
i rather buy htc desire
I wont buy any other Phone. Only iPhone.
i think it’s a decent price for that smart phone… comes with a free 16gb usb drive too for the first 800 to reserve! Hope the phone performs well, i wanna get one but i have already reserved an I-phone via globe. But if the unit turns out to be really good I’d still get one maybe after new year… he he he!
medyo mura ah.
the 16GB usb drive alone is worth 1,500 making the phone 22k+ only. Nice deal but symbian is still symbian :p
Same here.. this fone is a beast!
me too…hihi
getting one..
Already pre-ordered.. :D
Sir Abe, dapat i-delete ang mga nagmumura like Steve Jobs and Mon Makibal. BLOCK THEIR(his) REPLIES. I don’t know OVI but “mura is mura”, it’s disgusting even we are democratic country.
