Which one is better, Nokia N8 or Samsung Galaxy S?

The Nokia N8 is the first phone to be the Finnish manufacturer, the 12-megapixel camera and the new operating system, Symbian 3 is shipped with a. In autumn, the touch screen phone finally comes in the trade. Area Mobile has the camera now wonder the Android Samsung Galaxy King
S compared with the top models and presented in a picture gallery.

Nokia has agreed with the N8 made awesome, it shows the phone significantly. Even the high-quality aluminum case looks much more chic than the vile plastic of the Galaxy S. For this is the N8 thicker, especially the clunky camera is again clearly evident from the housing. There is a reason, because the N8 offers especially for photos a lot more than the Samsung smartphone. Namely the Symbian mobile phone comes with 12 mega pixels and xenon flash, the Galaxy must be S, with only five mega pixels and do without a flash. Videos take both devices with 1280×720 pixels on (720p).

In the display, the Galaxy S clearly in the lead, currently there are few phones that can exceed 4-inch AMOLED screen and 800×480 pixels. When using Nokia N8 even the AMOLED technology, but extends only to 3.5 inches and 640×360 pixels.

Nokia has not only the hardware made a leap forward, but also the Symbian operating system in the heavily revised new version 3. In addition to numerous small improvements such as three start screens and intuitive context menus in all situations was compared to the former top model N97 , the operating speed rapidly increased all before. Cover Flow view in the music player or the gallery go smoothly now buttery soft and very fast on the 3.5-inch display. The inconsistent control logic required in the S60 5th Edition and sometimes even one or two clicks, was rejected completely. Now all a single click is enough with your finger.

The main menu looks almost like on current S60 phones. This is also the main point of criticism, because while the competition to HTC, with its user interface Sense chic and beautiful 3D effects animation, Symbian 3 acts are still sober and useful. But Nokia still has some time for the finishing touch. For a prototype made the Mobile Area N8 present but already a very mature impression.
