Get the Nokia N8 and leave your digital camera at home. Its 12 megapixel camera and Carl Zeiss lens give you pin-sharp photos. And when you shoot at night, the Xenon flash makes sure pictures come out bright and sharp.
Your N8 mobile phone is also great for staying in touch with friends. Get Facebook updates straight to your homescreen – and share videos and pics (there’s room for loads with 16GB of storage built in) to the web easily.
Want to customise your N8? Put shortcuts, bookmarks and apps on three home screens – and give each one a different wallpaper. How’s that for making your phone your own?
