Comparing N8 photos vs iPhone photos:

• iPhone screen is 960x640, while N8 screen is 360x640.
• A picture when enlarged will look more blurry on the N8, compared with the same picture enlarged on the iPhone.
• This doesn't mean the N8 camera takes blurry pictures.
• This means the screen resolution is better on iPhone
• This means the camera is better on N8.
  The bad quality UI complaints are mostly due to the 3rd party widgets included from YouTube, CNN, BBC, National Geographic, Paramount movie previews.

My phone crashed (UI got stuck) due to some third party app, and I tried to remove the battery (as with most other phones) but couldn't.

I realized I did not need to remove the battery...just press the power button for 5-8 seconds and the phone will reboot.

BTW, if you'd ever need to replace the battery yourself, just use a small "allen key" type screwdriver.

The Nokia N8 multiple home screens are a great way to organize yourself and reduce phone screen clutter.

If you need a portrait mode qwerty keyboard, swype or dayhand maybe interesting options for you. I personally need a qwerty keyboard in portrait mode.

Keep in mind that qwerty keyboard is just a burden for most people (esp. older people in Asia). Such people will be content with just reading messages, sending a few "very short" messages with the T9 keypad...while making a lot of calls and taking a lot of pictures anytime anywhere.

Among the things I love about this phone:

1. N8 is able to play all sorts of vdo file formats.
2. Camera gives you 12MP pictures, and HD video! Just make sure to peel the plastic off the lens on the back.
3. Connectivity cables included (usb to thumb drive, usb to pc/mac, hdmi to tv is flawless)
4. Multi-tasking
5. Long battery life
6. Internet, Email, or Web Connectivity can be set to be via "WLAN only" or "WLAN preferred" or "3G only", etc. You can minimise mobile operator fees as you like.
7. Combine Push Email with your choice of network connectivity via WLAN and you start to save money with the lower phone bill.

This is my opinion on the iPhone vs N8 issue...
- US journalists/bloggers who write N8 reviews are mostly new to Nokia/Symbian.
So they will only "evaluate" their comfort level with the N8...for just a couple of days.
They admit (very briefly) that "I'm an iPhone user, I tried to use N8 for x days", before they start hammering the N8.
- N8 gives you the gear to lower your phone bill
- Hackers have traditionally been about lowering their AT&T phone bills. Many in Silicon Valley, including Steve Jobs, grew up with this mentality. Nokia probably realize this and gives you a choice...the press is not giving Nokia the credit for giving you the freedom.
- Nokia N8 robust hardware will still be handy after many years of use and software updates.
Part of the "UI problem" is due to the less tightly structured Symbian UI development kit, by allowing 3rd party developers the freedom to create their own look and feel.
So each app on Symbian can have a different UI structure and user's experience may not very be consistent across different apps even though they are using the same device (N8).
The less tight structure of Symbian APIs has proved to be a strength as Symbian has evolved to support a much larger variety of hardware types with different phone form factors:
- some touch screen
- some T9 keypad
- some qwerty keypad
Nokia, as a leading phone manufacturer, offers a larger choice of phone form factors for a larger customer base...that's the reason Nokia is a leading phone manufacturer.
Each form factor will be preferred by different types of users, since there is a much wider consumer base.
Many business users will prefer a qwerty keyboard.
Many users will prefer a T9 keypad and find the qwerty keyboard a distraction with too many buttons...for example, they usually do not do a lot of texting or type on a computer keyboard.
Many people like the "feel" of a touch UI...but that also means that each app is more likely to have "touch buttons" on a different location of the screen.
That means touch UI phones require the users to "look before you touch".
That means with the keyboard or keypad, users can "feel" as they "touch" the phone buttons without looking.

Review: Nokia E7, Design Interestings, OS Lose Looks

In the world of clever handphone, In this time nokia with os symbian actually exclusive of again compared with the friends has liked android, iOS apple and Windows phone 7.

After several times received criticism, Twitter finally solve one of the biggest problems related to the problem short URLs. Microblogging site will now automatically shorten a web address in a broad and long.

10 Android Features that the iPhone Doesn’t Have

10. Alternate Keyboards

From text predictors like Swiftkey to the innovative like Swype and the downright adventurous like 8pen, you have a lot of different keyboard choices on Android. Typing on a tiny phone keyboard isn't anyone's idea of fun, so it's great that Android provides so many options to make it as painless for people as possible, and super easy to install. The iPhone has other keyboards, but they're usually separate apps that require you to import text to another program—it's just the kind of system-level functionality that's hard to get around.

9. Automation

One of the most powerful, useful Android apps around is Tasker, the automation program that lets you turn your phone into a superphone. You can turn settings on and off for certain applications, by location, time of day, and pretty much any other condition you can think of. With the right commands in place, Tasker can access the deepest and darkest settings on your phone, which is something you just can't do on other platforms. Be sure to also check out our second list of Tasker setups, three handy Tasker profiles from our readers, and how to roll your own "Find my iPhone" for Android. Similar apps like the battery-saving JuiceDefender would also fall into this category.

8. Custom Home Launchers

While iPhone users can customize their home screen quite a bit if they've jailbroken, they don't allow the kind of customization that you can get on Android with custom home launchers. Third party launchers can add all sorts of extra features to the home screens of your device, like gestures, different kinds of shortucts, and even low-level settings that can help speed up an older phone. Whether you're using the super-fast LauncherPro or the insanely customizable ADWLauncher, third-party launchers add a ton of configuration to your device.

7. Widgets

Sure, they take up a bit of space, but there's no substitute for the convenience of having a big weather widget right on your home screen, or a music widget to show you the currently playing track. Even more useful are the to-do list widgets, that take an "in your face" approach to productivity, which is not only effective but necessary from people, as they don't require you to actually look for your to-do list—they're always reminding you of what you need to do. If you've jailbroken, you can get widget-like apps for the iPhone, but you can only put them on your lock screen—not the actual home screens that you're always swiping through.

6. Removable Storage and Battery

it isn't part of the Android software, necessarily, but Android's open nature allows for quite a few hardware advantages too—namely the ability to take out, swap, and upgrade your battery and SD card. If you find that you've maxed out the storage on your iPhone, you're pretty much out of luck, whereas with an Android phone you can pop in a new SD card and have gigabytes more storage to play with. Similarly, you can swap out a spare battery for longer trips or even get an extended battery that'll help your phone go longer without charging. Photo by Hiroyuki Takeda.

5. Wireless App Installation

Browsing for and discovering new apps should be fun, not challenge to make it through a tiny app store with your sanity intact. The App Store and Cydia App Store aren't exactly fun to browse on your phone, but you either have to download apps on your phone or plug it into iTunes to sync them all over. With the new Android Market, or with third-party sites likeAppBrain, you can find a cool app, hit the install button, and it'll be on your phone the next time you pick it up. It doesn't get much more convenient than that.

4. Custom ROMs

While there are a lot of third-party apps that give you advanced features on Android, one of the coolest parts about the entire OS being open source is that people can take it, tweak it all over, and install their version instead of the one that comes with your phone. Whether it's the feature-filled CyanogenMod or the interface-overhauling MIUI ROM, there's little limit to how much you can tweak your Android experience. As with launchers, these give you a lot of system-level tweaks that you just wouldn't be able to get this easily on other platforms—and it puts them easily within users' reach. Whether it's tweaks that speed up your phone or features like FM radio, custom ROMs are without a doubt one of the biggest advantages to Android's openness around.

3. Controlling Your Phone From Your Computer

This one's a little more out there, but we've featured quite a few apps that let you actually control your Android phone from your PC—whether you just want to send texts from Chrome or access any of its other functions right from a web browser. iOS has apps like TeamViewer, which let you access the phone itself, but it's only a screen-sharing app—it doesn't actually let you access the phone's baser functions from another interface, which can be a very overlooked convenience.

2. Flash

Say what you want about Flash, but it's everywhere you go, and when you're forced to view the web without it, you realize how much you actually rely on it day-to-day. Whether its accessing fully Flash web sites, watching Flash videos, or playing games like the ones on Kongregate, having Flash installed on your phone and tablet let you access a lot of things you otherwise couldn't have. We may grimace when we hear its name, but it's too prevalent to go without. It just feels like you don't have the whole web at your fingertips.

1. True App Integration

Google Voice may finally be available for the iPhone, but the experience will never be the same as it is on Android. Other iPhone apps always direct you to the default dialer and visual voicemail apps, so even if you want to use Google Voice full time, you have to manually navigate it to yourself. On Android, apps like Google Voice integrate directly with the operating system—if you want to make calls with Google Voice, every call you make from the phone's dialer goes through Google Voice. When you click on a phone number in your browser or in Google Maps, it goes through Google Voice instead of sending you to the wrong dialer. True app integration like this makes using custom phone, SMS, voicemail, and even browser apps absolutely seamless on Android, which is something you won't find on the more locked-down iPhone platform.

We do love the iPhone here at Lifehacker, but we also love tweaking and hacking our phones into oblivion, and Android just does it better than any other platform. These are just a few of the many tweaks you can make to an Android phone, but they're certainly some of the most special. Got any of your own favorites that weren't featured? Be sure to share them in the comments below.

8 Tips for Reducing the Risk Due to Use of Mobile phones / Smartphones

ADDICTION smartphone? You are not alone, certainly a lot of people around the world who have experienced it. In fact, an international organization under the auspices of the World Health Organization (WHO) issued a report that the phone has the potential to expose carcinogens.

Thus, it's good we make an effort to minimize the risk. Here are some strategies to reduce the risk of the above is quoted from Shine.com:

1. Use the loudspeaker
Strive to keep the phone as far as possible from your head, this could reduce the level of energy or power. The farther you are from the antenna, the more low exposure to the signal.

2. Use a text message
Wherever possible use text messages rather than calling. This will limit the duration of exposure and the phone away from the head and body.

3. Turn off
Get used to switch the phone off when not in use or switch to offline.

4. Ear alternately
If you do have to call with ears, be sure to use ear alternately to limit prolonged exposure on one side of the ear associated with an increased risk of brain tumors and salivary cancer.

5. Use the phone with a full signal
Do not call in elevators, trains, or in the car. This makes the phone work hard to find signals that are difficult to access.

6. Short talk
The phone is not for memhasa or discussing something with someone you know. If you have to do a long conversation, Just talk directly. A study found that after a phone conversation for 2 minutes, the brain's electrical activity can be changed at least to 1 hour.

7. Remove the phone from my pocket
A recent study found that men who phone in your pocket have sperm counts 25 per cent lower. The parts of the body known to absorb radiation in different intensities and testicular tissue may be more vulnerable.

8. Keep the phone from the bedroom
Do not sleep near the phone, especially near your head. Electromagnetic fields can reduce the production of melatonin in the body that can cause cancer and disease other.

Best Mobile Phones in 2010

HTC Hero

The strong design, slick social networking skills and beautiful implementation of the Android operating system with the ‘Sense’ UI has seen the HTC Hero
Packing a 5-megapixel autofocus camera, 3.2-inch capacitive touchscreen and GPS in a unique, angular form factor, the Hero is possibly the best phone to demonstrate what Google’s new operating system is really capable of.
Winning the hearts and minds of those not swayed by the iPhone, the Hero is easily the next best thing.
——————————————————————————
HTC HD2

Representing Windows Mobile as the Hero has for Android, the ‘wow’ factor of the HTC HD2 is definitely marrying Microsoft’s mobile operating system to that mammoth 4.3-inch touchscreen display.
Bringing the smooth, refined Sense user interface as well as the first phone to offer multi-touch on Windows Mobile 6.5, the HTC HD2 is equally at home being a business device as it is a multimedia powerhouse.
With a 5-megapixel lens and dual-LED flash, GPS and support for apps to Marketplace for Mobile, the HD2 is the perfect poster boy for the next generation of Windows phones.
—————————————————
Apple iPhone 3GS

Getting the design so right first time has given Apple the ability to reiterate rather than revolutionise, and the iPhone 3GS is the second update to the groundbreaking formula.
Expanding on the iconic device with a 3 megapixel camera, video recording, voice controls and up to 32GB of storage, the Apple iPhone 3GS is able to do it all, faster.
—————————————————

Apple iPod touch 32 GB (4th Generation) NEWEST MODEL

The iPod touch is frequently called an iPhone without the phone. However, until now there have been several other features also missing in the iPod touch besides the phone: a camera, GPS, magnetometer (compass), and some newer amenities from the iPhone 4: front-facing camera, high resolution "Retina display" as it has been dubbed, and the powerful 1GHz A4 processor--indeed a necessity to keep up with multitasking.

Having had a chance to spend a little time with a review model gives me a chance to share the experience with you a bit early (before my own arrives). I'll take you hands-on with the new model, plus I'll share from my past two years of iPod touch ownership altogether, especially for those who haven't yet owned (or been owned by) one of these mobile gems.

I've also hidden a treasure trove of info on how you can legitimately download tons of quality apps for free. First though, let's quickly cover what's new.

• Faster 1GHz A4 Processor - to keep up with the high demands of multitasking
• Ultra high resolution "Retina display" - packs a 960 x 640 resolution at 326 pixels per inch
• 15% larger battery - 3.44 Whr/930 mAh plays 7 hrs of video & 40 hrs of audio
• Rear-facing camera - supports 960 x 720 sized photos (0.6 megapixels), plus 720p HD videos
• Front-facing VGA-quality camera - VGA-quality is a resolution of 640 x 480 (0.3 megapixels)
• 3-Axis Gyroscope - allows for higher precision and more motion gestures
• Wireless N - Connect faster and go farther than ever, with this WiFi device (requires a router with 802.11n)
• Built in microphone - but Apple reverted back to using the remote- and mic-less earphones
• Game Center - Apple's own social gaming platform
• Sleep/Power Button - it's been moved to the right, but not improved beyond that
• Thinner, lighter than ever

Note - Memory remains at the same 256MB despite several unconfirmed sources touting 512MB. There's also no vibrate module.

Unlike last year's iPod touch update, this one's a complete overhaul to the entire line. Last year, the new models didn't change in appearance. On the inside, faster processors and double-memory were added to the 32GB & 64GB models, but the 8GB got left out. Not this time. Buying the new 8GB iPod touch indeed gets you all the new goodies. You'll also pay thirty bucks more than before, so consider buying the 32GB model instead. You'll get 400% of the storage capacity for only 23% more coin!
