The Important questions is: wat ar ur needs in a phone?

Consider a more recent phone.

Is worth havin men.is wat I hav nw I really nid anoda fone bt for de luv hmmmm

You should get something more recent. Apart from the camera, the phone is out-dated in the symbian world.

After the N8 came C7, E7 and others. They were largely thesame with some subtle differences like camera quality, screen size, internal memory e.t.c but they can largely be regarded as thesame generation of symbian^3

After those, 701, 700 e.t.c were released out of which 701 was the best. These ones had twice the RAM better GPUs and also twice the processor speed and a slightly larger battery among other things.
These also debuted with symbian belle which was updated to belle fp1 and later fp2.
Though the older devices got belle, afterwards they only got belle refresh which is more of a cut down version of fp1.
What you get with these is a vastly better performance than previous devices which were BTW not bad.
Not too long ago, 808 was released which added a 41MP camera and a inch screen but with almost thesame internals. It together with 701 and co can be largely considered as another generation.
So all-in-all, 808 is currently the best symbian device while 701 at its price offers the best value for money. If you've got the money then go for 808.


Before I forget, Nokia 500 was also released with 701 but it's pretty much a low end device running belle.

If u got money go for 808 is de best deal on symbian tink it go for around 85k or more

N8 has lots of bugs especially d one runng on belle d worst is d belle refreash update that is on now. But is still a strong phone i will advise when u buy it, it will be in Nokia Anna do not upgrade to belle.Anna runs smoothly no flaws.

Really njoyin de belle refresh av not had any issue as yet infact ever since de upgrade ave had a better ba3 performance...
