@Vit,
I was choosing Sunny white balance setting for my indoor flash shots, and seemed to be getting some better results.
I just went on vacation and took over 500 shots.
Many shots didn't come out great due to strong light sources, and a lot of low light non flash shots that looked great on my phone, do not look so good when on my computer monitor.. I guess i am also still learning the behavior of this phone.
But I did take some truly stunning pics. Getting the right lighting seemed to be my biggest challenge. Too bright and my outdoor pics looked like crap.
I did also take a couple stunning panoramas, and the quality of video in both low light and daylight was amazing. I was very impressed with the video performance.

Hi, pal!
I´ve seen some of your vacation´s pics, and they indeed look fabulous!
Yeah, as I´ve pointed out in the 'N8 vs Satio Camera Shoot Out' thread, the N8 preview is highly misleading.
First of all, the live view is totally inaccurate. Secondly, the pics look warmer and brighter in the phone´s display than in a PC monitor.
The N8 also tends to apply a heavy Digital Exposure Compensation for slower shutter speeds.
I´ve just posted some examples in that thread. Check them out.
As for the video recording, I agree with you. It looks just fantastic. I´ll try to post an example from a Jazz gig I´ve recorded. It looks just fantastic.
Crispy sound and awesome clean image. Indeed remarkable performance.

Vit, as to this point, you may have missed that the N8 has an AMOLED display.
Our PC displays are all LCDs.
Hence the obvious difference in displaying the photos.

Well, I haven't experiened much with video capture.. Barely tried out.. I don't use it much anyway..
But really good to read all those positive comments.. Motivating to say the least..

But the colour temperature is something that can be tuned, no matter the type of display. There are some benchmarks for that purpose over the net.
Well, one way or the other, the thing is that it is indeed misleading.
