New Nokia N8

According to reports Nokia will introduce its new E7 smartphone at its Nokia World event in London next week, and  the device may pack both a “large” touchscreen and a full QWERTY keyboard. Nokia will also unveil  its new N8 model, which is the first phone to use the new Symbian 3 software, along with other new smartphones.

“As the N8 starts shipping and other devices are unveiled, Nokia will be hoping that it can lay the foundation stones for its recovery given the onslaught of competitive products currently hitting the market,” said Ben Wood, director of research at CCS Insight. “It has made some big commitments on fixing Symbian and its first flagship product using the refreshed Symbian operating system. Failure is not an option,”
