Nokia Philippines will have a media launch for the Nokia N8 on October 15 and has also opened pre-orders for their flagship smartphone, the Nokia N8.

The suggested retail price — Php23,699USD 404INR 34,236EUR 385CNY 2,941 (pretty good price point IMO).

If interested, click here to post your pre-orders.

Last week, I asked readers if they’re buying the Nokia N8 when it comes out. Now that the price has been revealed, have you changed your mind on getting the N8?

  1. Already pre-ordered.. :D

  2. getting one..

  3. me too…hihi

  4. Same here.. this fone is a beast!

  5. the 16GB usb drive alone is worth 1,500 making the phone 22k+ only. Nice deal but symbian is still symbian :p

  6. medyo mura ah.

  7. i think it’s a decent price for that smart phone… comes with a free 16gb usb drive too for the first 800 to reserve! Hope the phone performs well, i wanna get one but i have already reserved an I-phone via globe. But if the unit turns out to be really good I’d still get one maybe after new year… he he he!

  8. I wont buy any other Phone. Only iPhone.

  9. i rather buy htc desire

  10. The N8 battery is just 1200 mAh Li-Ion battery…BIG FAIL! :P

  11. Yes, pretty good price. Considering the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic (note: NOT flagship phone) was P19,990.00 almost two years ago during its launch.

  12. @simplynice coz Nokia N8 has AMOLED screen and is not battery-eater!
    Nokia N8 is already available beginning now October 08, 2010 for only Php23,699 with free 16GB thumbdrive for the first 800 pre-orders! So hurry! Just pre-ordered mine color silver. Available colors for pre-orders are dark steel grey and light silver!

  13. I was contemplating whether to preorder or not, the green color is not available in our country while the orange is not available yet for pre-order

  14. I noticed that if you preorder with Nokia Philippines, the available colors are black and silver.

    On the Smart postpaid preorder (which only lists unlimited data plans, it seems and forces you to get one) also has Orange in addition to black and silver.

    Just in case you wanted a different color, remember that. If you’re getting one, that is.

  15. iOS or Android

  16. @Jiro

    Pakyu

  17. napa OMG ako sa mura.

    based sa mga online reviews, the camera of n8 can match the quality and features of a dedicated digicam that worths 15K+.. not to mention the smartphone OS, 16GB storage, cellphone features, HDMI support,hD recordings, dvix supports, web capabilities and a decent processor with dedicated GPU..

    considering that n97 mini was priced around 25k last year… im gonna w8 till this phone hit the 20k below mark.. wow…

  18. Ya, good thing i didnt push thru getting the N97 last year, especially the special edition “Raoul” version–that was around php31,000.

  19. Would also have to depreciate the BB and ip4 for at least a year.

    Is it worth to also wait for the N9 thats coming soon with the new OS?

  20. Lined up at the fort and got my 5800 during the launch for 20k….will surely get this one…..

    but i really like to have my first android phone!!!

  21. to those who pre-ordered…..how would you know you qualified for the free 16GB??? there’s no mention in the pre-ordered receipt…..

  22. If it run Android then I’d get one.

  23. Yup!

  24. I still prefer E7

  25. Philippines is getting an early christmas gift. Everywhere else are more expensive. Europe 430 euro!

  26. Yes, have to try it..N8 is the best Nokia phone so far

  27. And now… I am battling with an iPhone 4 and N8. N8 is darn cheap with great specs. Tempting…. Will I cancel my iPhone 4 order for an N8? cant decide yet. I will sure buy this one if my iPhone 4 order will be rejected by Apple Hk.

    -Sent via YugaTech Mobile App

  28. I’m definitely getting one. Been waiting for this!

  29. do check out a head-to-head battle of N8 with Blackberry and iPhone here http://gizmodo.com/5653621/gizmodo-hq-video-throwdown-how-usable-is-nokias-new-n8

    but of course the price is a big factor too..

  30. After nyo bumili nito lalabas meego… iyak!

  31. No. Will not buy one.

    For sure early or mid next year, a new set of superphones will come out… and by that time, this N8 will further slash it’s price.

  32. yes I’ll buy one to replace my 5800

  33. Even the battery is 1200mah, it can almost stay as longer as 1500mah on some handsets. Pretty amazing for the improvement of CPU and GPU in-built!

    Midrange handset at its best! Even it won’t match the speed of gHz handsets these days, it can still match up with its specs over price!

  34. the 1200mah battery will last because symbian does not extract unnecessary juice for the bling blings of the user interface unlike ios and android as i read…

  35. nice video by Jay Montano in response to gizmodo. Thanks Jay!

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bJ018LZjLc&feature=player_embedded

  36. N8 Video capability.

  37. Nice phone.. I may consider upgrading my pesky N5800 with this one..

  38. @abe

    That’s why i told you before, this is the most cost effective phone i’ve ever seen

    hiheygaler.blogspot.com/2010/09/nokia-n8-powerhouse-device-why-i-chose.html

  39. @OVI

    Pakyu. You’re only that faggot Jiro Yan in hiding.

  40. I will do an Odeng and wait for the E7 as well. My next Nokia will definitely be Touch Screen.

  41. Very tempting. I thought NASA 30k range ang N8 due to it’s excellent camera. High probability na I consider ko sya more than any android phone

  42. Haha! Me too! Even though if it’s just a midrange phone, I’ll sell my Galaxy S for this! :P

  43. Wow! That’s a very good starting price considering the specs(12mp with xenon,720p video capture and playback with divx and xvid support,usb OTG,amoled display,anodized aluminum unibody and more…) and when the E7 will hit the shelve with almost the same aľd

  44. @OVI

    bakit mo naman po post dito ang testimonial page ng website ko.

  45. @Steve Jobs

    Hndi po ako si OVI. Bakit ko naman ikakalat testimonial ng mga client ko. Para lang mapansin.. I dont need attention para magka client. At hindi ako patay gutom magka client. At higit sa lahat hindi ako disperado.

  46. @abe

    Paki remove mo lahat ng testimonial na nasa comments ni OVI.

    @OVI

    Thanks you so much but no need to post that testimonials here kasi its looks like a spam. At may commenter kasi dito na hindi nakapasa pagiging lawyer. Judge kasi ng Judge without proof.

    “Pakyu. You’re only that faggot Jiro Yan in hiding.” -Steve Jobs

  47. Wow, three posts in a row from Mr. Yan.

    Someone’s “defensive”

  48. So what if homosexual horse ako?

  49. Gizmodo doesnt give fair user review to nokia n8,iphone 4 is good phone but on its price its the specs is not enough for the price you payed for…

  50. Sir Abe, dapat i-delete ang mga nagmumura like Steve Jobs and Mon Makibal. BLOCK THEIR(his) REPLIES. I don’t know OVI but “mura is mura”, it’s disgusting even we are democratic country.

  51. hindi bibili kasi may mas bagong lalabas ulet???

    With that kind of mentality, kelan ka pa makakabili ng bagong phone? yung totoo lang?

  52. LOL

  53. Ang dami naman comment spammer dito…

  54. Comment without my Avatar is not me.

  55. @Mon Makuto

    Of course i have to defense myself. Ano ba gusto mo gawin ko? manahimik nalang.. bawal ba mag post ng sunod-sunod? Do i have to wait for a years bago mag post ulet. Review your comments first bago mo submit para hindi ka magmukhang walang pinag-aralan. High School Grad man ako but don’t think that i’m an idiot.

  56. good job for nokia,its a big leap for them since, napag iiwanan na sila sa mga smart phones, great features also sa phone, but one thing i didnt like is nokia still running for symbian OS, i mean bakit pa nila hindi bitawan yung sarili os nila, wala naman improvement,imo.. much better kung android OS nyan mas mabilis, usually bumabagal kasi yung symbian OS..which make me sick.. and no improvement sa totoo lang, price is also good, may be i wont buy n8, ill go for the HTC mobile na lang :)

  57. off topic, hey abe bat USA ang web location mo sa norton web safe?sorry newbie

  58. @phi

    It’s your choice naman e. If you prefer android, no one is forcing you. But as a current Android user, I’ll switch to this one. It has better services. Free Ovi maps navigation without connecting to internet.

    As a busy person with a busy lifestyle, I prefer to use Symbian because of its ease of use. As I said earlier, it doesn’t require 1gHz+ to run smoothly, because it is symbian. Instead, it will need lesser to provide you longer battery life to enjoy the handset the most for the whole day or 2 on the road. So the features are maximized :)

    Many people keeps on telling Symbian layout and design is outdated, but for me, I’m fed up of iPhone and Android fancy UI transitions. It looks good, but at the end of the day, what’s that for?

  59. @jiro yan

    “i have to defense myself” “Do i have to wait for a years bago mag post ulet”

    ang idiot hindi alam na idiot sila! IDIOT! hahaha! galing ng ingrish mo! *clap clap*

  60. I am so gay

  61. On the second thought…I will! Pre-ordered.

  62. iDontCare!

  63. A lot of blinded iPhone fanboys! Most of them don’t like nokia n8 bec. of 680mhz processor. FYI: Processor is not the only base for speed. Symbian phones doesn’t need higher processor because it can already perform well better than you negatively thought. Second, battery of N8 is 1200maH because it N8 has AMOLED screen which is battery-saver than normal LCD. Also, Nokia N8’s price in the market is more cheaper than iPhone. Lastly, a smartphone’s important function is it can do many things in which the N8 does. Nokia N8 has a stand-alone digital camera beater 12megapixel Carl Zeiss sensor with Xenon flash, fast multitasking ability, bluetooth that can send any files, can easily connect to any computer, has a great picture and video editing on-board, a USB-on-the-go which is essential, can be used with stylus for people’s preferences, and much more. So, does iPhone has that? If NO, then stop being blind praising for such an OVERPRICED INCOMPLETE feature iPhone!

  64. I like turtles

  65. 2. iDontCare!

  66. @jamby you will know if you belong to the first 800 who pre-ordered the Nokia N8 int the electronic receipt you received after you pre-ordered. its here beside or within the tracking number– 20101008-185
    notice the end 185? that’s your rank in the pre-order costumers… it means i’m 185 so i can get the feeebie… thank God! =)

  67. @Marky, You, yourself is a blinded nokia fanboy. No, Symbian doesn’t need fast processor clock speeds because the developers aren’t able to utilize it to its fullest.

    Good price point? Yes, comparing it to other smartphone tiers which is priced at P25k< balita ko may free flash drive pa.

    But build and features? Definitely not the best but you'll get compensated with the price. Or if you're smart enough than those who you call "fanboys", you can add a few more bucks for a much more featured smartphone.

  68. @hahaharvee

    What do you mean unable to utilize to the fullest?

    The reason processors are overclocked because they need to launch or run apps faster than normal all because of their OS. Android and iPhone need this gHz badly because they are just like VMWare running on a Linux platform, unlike Maemo which is a Linux OS. Symbian is just like Maemo too. Isn’t Nokia intelligent to use Symbian instead of Android?

    Build feature, I myself can’t still say if it is that durable, but by looking at the videos with scratching tests testifies that this phone (N8) will be durable as expected too.

  69. @marky

    thanks for the tip…

    mine is -231

    thanks!!!

  70. 3. iDontCare!

  71. @jamby sure you’re welcome!

  72. @arvee im not blinded… for I know Nokia N8 offered a lot of features than those overpriced phones… build and features? most of the blogs reviewed Nokia N8 having great build quality with good looks and has anodized casing means scratchless… it’s also feature pack..
    nokia developers know about processor thing but they use lower processor because it fits with symbian without compromising it’s strength and doesn’t consume much battery…
    Lastly, Nokia N8 is currently the best camera phone in the market! =)

  73. guys ask ko lang nag pre order din ako nasa 300+ yata sya kaso december ko pa e claim pde pa ba yun kasi dun pa lang ako mag kakapera?

    salamat

  74. will definitely get this phone!!!

  75. Arvee, so the difference between 40k and 24k is few? Really?

    Much more featured smartphone? You mean an iPod touch with horrendous phone capabilities that sells for 40k and needs an app for every site you open?

    You really need an N8. It tags you as smart when you use one. It is the only event when your name and the word smart become less of an oxymoron.

  76. 4. iDontCare!

  77. I am still on Samsung Wave = )

  84. @Brown Bear

    Now your speaking. :P

  85. how can i pre order one? is the slots already filled?? thanks guys!

  86. @dye-em

    Try to preorder. When you receive an email right away, you will see a number indicating your position. If it’s less than 801, then you’re in. ;)

    gaming is quite good, i did not expect this.. and an epic camera, cover flow mp3 player…. im sold!

  88. guys ask ko lang nag pre order din ako nasa 300+ yata sya kaso december ko pa e claim pde pa ba yun kasi dun pa lang ako mag kakapera?

    salamat

    @ sir abe pa sagot naman po tanong ko , up ko uli

  89. Icare!

  90. @ace what’s the point of pre-ordering? I mean if december ka na kukuha better not the pre order one nlng kc mas mura na yan ang market price pagdating ng december I think it will be cheaper for 1 thousand… then if you still get your pre-ordered one I think its still the pre-order price yuo’ll pay of course… so better not use your pre-order nlng… buy the unit on december in Nokia store for a lesser price na…

  91. I really wish this had a slide out qwerty keyboard. I thought the E7 would be its upgrade, but it has dual led instead of xenon flash, bummer… :(

  92. bakit walang green?!?!?!?!

  93. already using an android phone but reserved one for my dad para meron mahiram na mapag laruan and to experience different mobiles OS and compare each other. btw also saw dummy unit of n8 at nokia boni high street. cant wait for oct 23 as stated by the email from nokia for the pick up date.

  94. APPLE SHOULD LEARN TO PRICE LIKE THIS. F*CKING OVERHYPED/OVERPRICED/OVERSIMPLE POS!

  95. @manong

    Take a read on this article how both N8 and iPhone 4 should have almost the same price based on their hardware price:

    http://www.symbian-freak.com/news/010/10/isuppli_estimates_the_nokia_n8_costs_187_usd_in_hardware.htm

  105. Conversations between two different phone users:

    1-Hey buddy, I was calling you, but you didn’t answer.
    2-Actually I couldn’t hear that, I was on the road and my phone was in my pocket.
    1-Uh, ok. So, what happened… Hello, hello…
    2-(5 mins later) Hello, sorry, my phone got disconnected. It lost the network. By the way, did you play the new motion sensored NFS?
    1-Actually, games are for youngsters. We are grownups, we do the office works. So, did you finish the presentation?
    2-Umm, no I didn’t. Actually I was in the same party you were last night, remember? Did you finish yours?
    1-Definitely, man. I’ve got my editor.
    2-Uh, yeah, I always forget. Anyway, your phone doesn’t go as fast as mine.
    1-That’s true, but it get my work done. I don’t need a phone to go faster than me though. I’m happy as long as it doesn’t hang.
    2-Doesn’t your phone hang?
    1-Nope. Although the previous phones I used hanged sometime, but this one doesn’t. And you can’t judge this one by its previous models, can you? Can I judge you by your father?
    2-No, that I can’t. Hello, hello, I can’t hear you.
    1-Hello, hello…
    1-(another few minutes later) Hey, you got disconnected again.
    2-Unfortunately yes.
    1-But you bought your phone with $699, it shouldn’t behave this way…
    2-I know. I was robbed, I think.
    1-You still THINK you were robbed? I AM telling you that you were robbed. Today when we meet, I’ll lend you a set, you can use it for a while.
    2-Thanks, but when I bought this phone, I had to make my normal SIM a micro SIM to use in this one.
    1-Oh. Then I guess you’ll not be able to use your SIM in ANY OTHER phones.
    2-I guess not.
    1-Anyway, if you can finish your presentation by today noon, you might be enlisted to visit Bangladesh for the company deal. I’m taking my phone there, so I won’t be losing any data I have. Besides, while I’ll be there, I’ll buy a new SIM from there so that I don’t have to pay more while I’m in roaming.
    2-I guess I’ll have to either stick to my SIM with roaming and pay twice or thrice the bill if I want my phone data or have to buy a new SIM from there along with a new set and then transfer my data into that set again.
    1-And if you need, I can transfer my presentation to you through BlueTooth so that you can have a look at it and it will make your work easier.
    2-But I can’t take or send files through BlueTooth.
    1-Uh-Oh, I forgot. And you can’t also do multitasking.
    2-What are you saying dude? I can pause my game and my music player runs on background.
    1-Yeah, but can you visit a webpage and then minimize it and work on your contacts? Or can you browse a webpage and at the same time type an SMS while your contacts are open for viewing details and also you kept talking to your friend while you are typing?
    2-No, I can’t do all those things together.
    1-Then what’s the use of greater CPU if you can’t utilize it?
    2-True.
    (3 days later)
    2-Hey, I bought a bumper case for my phone.
    1-Good. What does it do?
    2-It saves my phone from breaking if fell from my hand accidentally. It also increases my phone’s network ability.
    1-That’s a good news. How much did that cost you?
    2-Umm, $199.
    1-So, in total your phone, cost became $898, isn’t it?
    2-Unfortunately yes.
    1-So, dear friend, don’t you now believe that you were robbed?
    2-Yeah I was. But I still love my phone.
    1-You should. I never told you to hate your phone. But my request is not to boast others just to prove that your phone is superior. Everyone loves their own phone. From now on, try to respect others, then you’ll get your respect back.

    Dear readers, after reading the above conversations, you can perfectly guess that the 1st speaker is using Very popular Nokia N8 and 2nd speaker is using another popular phone Apple iphone4.

  106. apparently 25,560 ang regular price ng N8 come November. got the info from a Nokia representative

  107. you guys have to hurry with the n8 hotcake, i have to wait a lucky n8 in quiapo via GSM(Galing Sa Mangiisnats) vendors, much cheaper!! lol

  108. Phone with adroid os or wp 7 is better.

  109. hmm is this a good or a bad news? looks like Nokia is abandoning Symbian Soon @_@

    Looks like you are not reading the article you just posted carefully.

    It says that you can confidently purchase Symbian^3 phones as of now because they can now be upgraded to future Symbian^4 OS that are supposedly released for next batch of handsets only.

    It means that upgrade path will be like that of Android and iOS.

  111. @kannuchi
    My Impression is that they will just build on top of Symbian^3, no more iterations of Symbian, Symbian^4 will no longer exist, the features for this will just be released as an update if it becomes available. aside from the announced phones, since they said they will no longer talk about Symbian^3 or Symbian^4, it looks like they will just focus on MeeGo(the explanation for Qt framework as this support both MeeGo and Symbian)

  112. and I was just focusing on what they might meant on “In fact, we will no longer be talking about Symbian^3 or Symbian^4 at all – it will be one constantly evolving and constantly improving platform.”

  113. Iphone is a waste of money. APPLE is only worth for music player. Kahit na milyonaryo ako hindi ako bibili ng iphone! Magaling lang sila sa marketing. Very inconvinient. Madamot pa!
    Nokia is the best! I dont care if it is cheap or what, what matter the most is its usefulness!

  114. @Jeff

    I doesn’t literally mean it will upgrade to S^4, but to upgrade S^3 to what S^4 is suppose to look like in the future.

    This doesn’t mean they will leave Symbian forever. In fact, this new plan will serve as an encouragement for those who find it discouraging to buy an S^3 device since there will already be S^4 and MeeGo next year.

    Since no more “S^3” and “S^4”, Nokia will be focusing on Symbian platform itself and self-evolving just like MeeGo, Android and iOS.

    Now that I have with me the N8 newly released in the country, looks like a lot of good stories await this thread the the blogosphere. :D

  115. @kannuchi

  121. Got my new Nokia N8 last Saturday. Super cool phone full-packed of features. The camera is so superb that you can’t believe that it’s a phone. Super clear talaga ang camera, two thumbs up! With free 16gb thumbdrive pa at backpack string bag. Also lots of amazing features like you can now listen to a message in your inbox and so much more great features. Super worth it and so worth the wait! :)
