n900 is classes as an internet tablet. screen is 840x480
n8 is classes as a smartphone screen is 640x360

seeing how n900 has 32gb, built in FM transmitter,IR etc this is why

n8 is only 16gb and new symbian plus camera. it doesnt have keyboard either

also n8 has roughly same processing power.

my dad just got n8 hes still figuring it out but symbian isnt the best and maemo is a winner though it needs tweaks.

over here still at carephone warehouse n900 phone contract is still £5 more tha n8 QQ

I paid 660eur from N900, I could get N8 with 460eur.

so what?

The N8 is not the top, or "flagship" as some call it. The E7 is more expensive, although probably not "better". The N9 will be about the same range as the E7, but the N9 is a mobile computer with high specs, the E7 a sleek smartphone.

The N8 is more like the N82, a camera phone.

Nokia has their own private dictionary. They have their own understanding of the common terms: 'mobile phone', 'smartphone', 'mobile computer' and 'flagship'.

Sometimes they're a bit confused with the term 'good' and 'user friendly' too

imo nokias dictionary is pretty logical, but lack of standardisation about what really is smarphone etc makes the whole stuff confusing. ones featurephone is ones smartphone etc...

Nope, the "Internet tablet" branding officially died with the N8x0s.

screen is 840x480
800x480.

also n8 has roughly same processing power.
Similar clocks, but one generation behind.

I'd give the edge to the N8. Not only is the chipset the latest (faster than what we have even at the same clock speed) but the graphics processor is theoretically 2 times better than what the N900 has.

PowerVR SGX 530 (N900): 14 M triangles/sec
Broadcom BCM2727 (Nokia N8) 32 M triangles/sec

What chip is that? All I can find is "ARM11", which is ARMv6 architecture and should be faster than the N900's OMAP 3 (Cortex A8, ie ARMv7).
