Playing Bounce, Rally, on Nokia N8.
 
Here's a video of N8 running Bounce ported from N900, and a rally game.

N900 actually feels smoother, thanks to cortex A8.

Also notice the lame typical symbian... i don't notice any difference between it and S60v5 :rolleyes:

I'll give N8 a pass.

The rumored Broadcom chip pushes more plolygons than our Cortex A8. If anything isn't smooth, it is due to coding errors and not a lack of GPU power.

And where's the source to that rumor?

Here is the quickest reference that I found. Search the interwebs for Broadcom and N8 and you may find some more info.

Symbian doesn't require much horsepower to run. So ARM11 @ 600 MHz is good (but not awesome for it). A top GPU, off course, is needed for video and games.

Why that combination? To save costs. For what is going to offer, the N8 is pretty good bang for your buck.

Thanks for the link.

Seeing Symbian does remind me how lucky we are on Maemo.
