Plus with the Nokia N8 if you want to transfer a file you simply have to ask to send it, the phone asks to turn Bluetooth on, sends the file and then quietly turns off Bluetooth again - nice touch. However, we tried it using the BlackBerry Torch (a Bluetooth 2.1 device) and we found that same song took 55 seconds to transfer, so at least the Nokia N8 is faster. Trying again, making sure all Wi-Fi devices were off and interference was at a minimum, which is far more than the average user will do when trying to send something over Bluetooth, we sent a 13MB video in just under two minutes. We used a Galaxy S (also rocking Bluetooth 3.0) to try sending a song, and the results were a little disappointing: a 3.4MB file took 34 seconds to transfer. We were (sadly) quite excited to try out some high end Bluetooth 3.0 transfers, as it promises a jump from 3Mbps to 24Mbps data transfer speeds. The Nokia N8 is full to the brim with high-end connectivity: Bluetooth 3.0 with A2DP, Wi-Fi up to 802.11n, assisted GPS, 10.2Mbps HSDPA, mini HDMI port, basically everything you could want.Īpart from the odd decision to put the older style of Nokia charger in the box, there's nothing we can fault here. The only downside when it comes to battery life we could see is the fact it's sealed in the phone - we don't know why Nokia's chosen to do this, but it means you can't replace it easily should the power centre go wonky.
We also tested the phone thoroughly offline - the battery performance held up, despite hammering the Bluetooth and Wi-Fi with data transfers to assess performance, and using it for long stints as a music player.
