Id have to disagree with norbi_nw too, i think the Nokia 5800 was an excellent phone. When it was released in the UK it was only £199.99 on PAYG. Call it £200 for a touch screen S60 phone with tons of apps and Ovi maps, it was an absolute bargain. Even if the camera was just a standard affair.
Oh and for anyone worried about the N8's camera,

thanks etaab,
those new pics look great, but I am honestly not sure how much better they are than what my C905 can do for just regular point and shoot 4x6, or 5x7 prints, or just looking at on my computer screen.
I am not into zooming, 100% crops, and analyzing every pixel for detail like some people here.
I just want a very good point and shoot camera that can take quality shots in various lighting conditions, including low light.
The 720P video is also a big deal for me, but it doesnt look like it handles low light that well, and there is also no video light, so I still have some questions there as well.
If the video wasnt so bad on the C905, I would probably stick with it, but then again, the lack of new apps for C905 is also very bad.
There is definitely a lot of detail present when zooming in in those shots, thats for sure.. but i would like to see more low light shots.. because that is where my C905 suffers the most.. unless you slow down the shutter speed

OMG at those sample shots...
i have seen some very good ones untill now, but some of them rule. It's K750i quality brought to 2010 with less noise and more detail. VERY VERY good pictures. Satio can hide.
I admit before i got my K810 the K800 was compared to the N95, and back then i tried to convince myself that K800 is better (was a blind SE fan). Nokia had some color issues, but detail wise it won. But this is over now because if those are unmodified images, the Satio can eat nokias dust. :/
And since when is it confirmed that it has DivX? in that interview with "some nokia guy" its confirmed that it wont have Divx... Would be nice if they have changed their mind.
And again... best shots shot by a mobile device ever (colors and quality too). A little optical distortion but that doesnt matter for me.

To be honest, ive seen so many pictures by 8 or 12 megapixel cameraphones i often find it hard to tell the difference. When i saw those pictures on GSM arena's blog i was impressed but not by much. Lets face it when you buy a dedicated digital camera they always take good quality snaps, pretty much guaranteed. Cameraphones do not, because they're not built primarily for that function, so sometimes pictures arent are great as you'd expect.
I think the Satio takes excellent shots. I always have done, so looking at those N8 examples they do luck better but not by much. I think where Nokia have outperformed SE in the camera department is the simple point and shoot method. Nokia phones may have as many advanced camera settings as a SE phone but they do not seem to matter that much. Its always easier to get a good picture first time with a Nokia phone that comes with a good camera - like the N95.
@ jake20 - im not sure where you find the N8 handles low light poorly. Other than comments, do you have a link to pictures to illustrate your worry ? Bear in mind that cameraphones in general usually handle low light nowhere near as good as a dedicated digital camera.
@ norbi_nw - personally i dont see the worry about Divx - its not the end of the world IMO whether a phone has it or not. There is always other codecs to use to encode videos with.

@JJ03; Are you still using your I8910 and does the N8 from reading the previews, strike you as a Nokia version of it? Mind you we are still not certain of what Symbian3 brings.

@ jake20 - yeah i see what you mean but then its not something that concerns me, i dont do much video shooting at night time or in low light. In fact i havent done much video shooting since i sold my N93.
Besides, Youtube always lowers the quality of videos so i dont think they're very good examples. When i get mine ill post some videos with mine if you're still unsure about the phone.
