Nokia Introducing the flagship N8

Nokia launched their flagship N series device, the N8, in Finland recently. The new smartphone, which will be available in selected markets from the third quarter of 2010, boasts heavy specs and a revamped operating system, says a press release.
The multimedia-heavy N8 features a 12 megapixel camera and HD video recording, with hardware capabilities to make an iPhone user jealous. The N8 can take photos with its 12 megapixel camera with flash and shoot HD videos in 720p, and edit them with an intuitive built-in editing suite.
An additional secondary video camera on the front may be used for video calls. The recordings can be viewed on the phone's 3.5” capacitive touch screen or the device can be connected to any home theater system via the built-in HDMI port, making the N8 a true home theater experience with HD quality film and Dolby Digital Plus surround sound.
Social networking is second nature to the device as people can update their status, share location and photos, and view live feeds from Facebook and Twitter in a single app directly on the home screen.
The N8 features Wi-Fi in addition to Bluetooth 2.1; it also comes with GPS and A-GPS positioning systems, with Nokia's free and complete navigation solution from Ovi Maps. The device comes with 16GB of on-board storage (expandable via microSD cards up to 32GB).
The N8 is Nokia's first phone featuring the revamped Symbian 3 OS; there are several new features, such as multi-touch, flick scrolling, and pinch-to-zoom in addition to features found on rival smartphone platforms, like multiple home screens and home screen widgets for Facebook and Twitter.
