Giving the Nokia N8 a run

Yesterday I received a package, and when I opened it, found a brand new Nokia N8 to use for the next 2 weeks. The review is part of a promotion at the moment where Nokia selected 60 people from around South Africa to give the phone a run for 2 weeks. They will also be selecting 2 of the best reviews to keep the phone.

I am going to try to do a comprehensive review once my 2 weeks is up, and my main goal is to see if I can use the Nokia, alongside the iPhone4.
My first impressions of the phone was that it was pretty slick. The phone matched up size & weight wise to the iPhone4. The packaging was different what we have become accustomed to in the sleek Apple packaging, but that said, the Nokia does come with a lot more accessories.The other thing that grabbed my attention was the 12MP camera the phone has. Nice !

I’m not going into much detail, for now,  but what I can say so far, is that I am very impressed with the phone, after playing around with it for a couple of hours.
I will be tweeting updates using the #N8ReviewZA hashtag during the course of the next 2 weeks, and when I am done, will do that review. Standby :)
