The new  n8 is easily one f nokia’s sexiest devices but how does it compare in terms of size to nokia’s most popular touch screen device  the 5800 and how does the 5800 compare to nokia’s first  maemo device the n900? check out the pictures below to find out

That’s it for now hope you enjoyed the photos and don’t forget that full size versions of all these photos and others can be viewed here and you read up other n8 posts here. laterz!

Everyone is comparing the n8 something, some high-end camera, some other big name phone and that’s all well and good because the n8 seem to be winning the fights but what about a other nokia product? we all know that nokia makes the best camera phones so why not compare the so call best nokia camera phone to one of there other great camera phone.

The nokia n8 12mp photos are at the top and the n900 5Mp photos are on the bottom.

As you can see from the images above the n900 makes the photos alot brighter then they are in real life and some people seem to like it like that but the n8 uses the natural light and looks more realistic, still i think it was a close fight (well closer than i think it was going to be)  now that we have seen the photos from both devices it’s time for video!

what do you think? I think that was closer than the images…right? let us know which one you think won in the comments below

What’s up world! its Saturday!  (sorry i have been watching a lot of de storm lately) so today i’m going to be telling you a little story, “about red ridding hood?” no! about nokia’s two OS’s, not to tell you which one is better overall and which one they should keep or let go but to tell you which one i think is best for me right now, and want i think nokia can do to make things a little better in the future  for me and maybe for you too.

So as some of you know my last nokia devices was the nokia 5800 and i say “was my last device” because it doesn’t work anymore, anyhow I got a n900 from the good people at nokia few days back and i have been using it as my main device ever since   but not only as my main device but as my life line and i will tell you now from the first day to now! i have spent more time with this phone then i have with my girlfriend, yes i know it sounds bad but when you have a computer with a nice looking, easy to use Ui thats has been blended up and poured into a great pace of hardware to create one of the best devices on the market to day one can’t help but keep it close at hand and heart, now i’m not saying that i never spent time with my other phones as a matter of fact i spent 3-4 hours setting up every new device that i have ever had but the differences is, with Symbian i was always like

“okay that new”, “I see they added a new app”, they still haven’t fix this problem”

but with maemo/meego/an other cool name that starts with M, I was like

“WOW! that’s nice” , “WOW! i didn’t know it could do that” , “father forgive me for i have sinned, because this must be mobile OS heaven”

Its about presentation my friends! see maemo presents it self like a top of the line OS with an easy to use  UI but with Symbian its like “sup G!, i have been doing this a long time you should know who i be!  and that’s where apply,google and meego with kick the living day lights out of Symbian. it’s because symbain won’t take the time to make  those hard edge, box like, pop ups windows that ask you to continue a billion and one time into a  small,smooth/round edged notification. i know some of you are saying “that won’t make symbian better” well maybe you’re right but think about if they made  hundreds of  little changes like that.

i’m off to play with my n900 and as for you, well you have just been Gadgetized! you’re welcome, Part Two coming soon!

The n97 mini vs. the n900 seems like the classic case of david vs. golianth (and no not david castro) but all jokes aside the n97 mini and the n900 are arguably the top two nokia device available in the cell phone market today, this may or may not change pretty soon with the coming of the n8 but as for now the n900 and the n97 mini are the top dogs and as top dogs its only right for me to compare them and see which is the big and better dog in terms of form-factor.  As Marvin Gaye would say let get it on…

Our friend Matthew Bennett from N Series US has just got his new Nokia N900 and he was nice enough to send us a few pictures of the n900 compared to a number of other great device

We’ll have much much more on the N900 in the coming weeks! so feel free to follow us on twitter for the latest updates, but for now enjoy the picture gallery below.

I was out with some of my friends having a drink and it happens that one of my friends own a Nokia N82. As you may know the N82 is posses an unique feature not yet seen again on any other Nokia mobile, Im talking about the Xenon flash.

Since the N82 birth, nokia has not released another device sporting the xenon flash, instead, they have been giving all the cameras the standard LED flash, and sometimes doubling it up to two LEDs. The quality of the LED flash has been discussed greatly, they usually do not work as well as the xenon flash while taking pictures, but they do a great job lighting up scenes when recording videos in low light, something that cannot be done with the Xenon flash.

So I asked my friend to run a test, comparing both devices. The N97 dual LED flash, and the N82 Xenon flash. Pictures were taken in complete darkness, the camera app was set to night portrait and the objects/person where from 5 to 8 feet away, which is the normal distance we use in the real world. We took an object picture and a person. Pictures after the jump.

N97/N82 in this order

So the result is undeniable, the N82 remains the king the night pictures. The Xenon gives better colours and better lightning. Also sharpness is better. The N97 does an ok job, though. Im just wondering when will Nokia start releasing devices with xenon flash for pictures and dual LED for videos. That would be enough.

So here comes the titans clash, they all got Carl Zeiss lens, with 5MP camera, autofocus and flash, but what is different between them? Yea the N95 only has ONE led fash, while the other two have dual led flash, so lets compare them down here. The pics are all in the same order N85/N95/N97

Casual picture taken in a street. All settings are default.

The N85 and the n97 do a very well job with the colors, that cannot be said of the N95, as you can see the yellow house on the right hand looks pale. Anyways, they all look good.

Macro Mode. All settings are default

Here the results are very different. First, the n85 gives a fairly blue tint making the flower violet, instead of pink. The N95 does the best shot, the flower looks more natural. The N97 does very bad with the colors here, I do not know why, but the background looks green. I treid different angles and the picture did excelent, but not sure why in this particular shot it has a green hue. On the details, I think the N97 has the better detailing.

Indoors with low light, flash is on.

Here you can see the N85 giving the yellow hue on the picture, same with the N97 but here it is barely noticeable. The N95 does the best shot here. And it has only one led flash, instead of dual. The N97 has a brigth corner on the lower left side. Could it be the flash or was my lens was just dirty, maybe my fingers? I will look into this.

Indoors low light wit no flash

The N97 has the best shot here, as you can see the N85 has the darkest picture, followed by the N95 and finally it gets brigther with the N97. I think the N97 does a great job with lowlight conditions and with no flash. I have taken pictures with almost no light and they still are very nice, see this

So what are your opinions? I think the N97 does a great job taking pictures, but the dual led flash needs development, as you just saw, the N95 does a better job taking pictures with the flash, why cant the N97 do the same, or better?? The N85 has the same issue, but worst because it give a yellow hue in low light conditions.

Im looking forward to test the N82 vs the N97, will the older brother beat his newborn sibling? Watch this space!
