Yesterday was officially introduced the iPhone in April and the first thing that comes to when a new device appears Apple is compared with its strongest competitors in the market, in this case the Nokia N8. This is a very strong fight between the workhorses of two mobile phone companies stronger market: Apple, which leads especially in the smartphone segment and within the United States against Nokia is the market leader global share but with penetration problems in the U.S. and in the process of trying to recover the ground lost in smartphones against other manufacturers.

First of all, I leave the features of the iPhone in April and features of the Nokia N8, so they can see them separately but compare every aspect to see which of these high-end phones, which are among the highlights of 2010, leads the way :

Camera

Of course Apple is very proud of the new 5 megapixel camera of the iPhone in April, and rightly so, but we saw pictures of what we could achieve the 12-megapixel camera of the Nokia N8 with Carl Zeiss optics and the results speak alone. That does not mean, as users, we may be more than satisfied with what the camera does the new iPhone but when it comes to comparing Nokia at this point stands almost in front of all the other smartphones on the market.

Satellite Navigation

You can obtain mapping services on the iPhone 4 but will have to pay a few dollars if they want a premium service and support satellite navigation for the car. In contrast, the Nokia N8 have full GPS chip in and Ovi Maps preinstalled, which provides for free navigation Turn-by-turn plus several extras as the Lonely Planet guide.

HD video recording and output

While N8 HD 720p video recording at 25 fps the iPhone 4 HD 720p 30PS recorded so there is a slight advantage for Apple in this regard. However, the Nokia Nseries to connect to HD TVs with HDMI output 780p, the iPhone is restricted to 576p using the Apple Component AV cable.

Design

The new iPhone is known for its ultra-thin 9.3mm glass and finished both the front and rear while the N8 is a bit thicker but built with 12.9mm aluminum which will last much longer like again.

Software

It is clear that the new IOS 4 with features such as multitasking, unified inbox and folders by applications highlighted long ago as one of the best operating systems for mobile phones despite the trend for Apple to control content while Symbian ^ 3 is still no guarantee (mostly because we saw in action yet) despite having promised a real improvement compared to S60 5th Edition. But while IOS is designed to handle multitasking quite basic for others, Symbian ^ 3 will offer the ability to handle any number of applications. On the other hand, there is still a large difference in volume and quality between stores and Ovi Store App Store.

Screen

Nokia touch screen is 3.5 inch N8 16:9 nHD resolution (640 x 360 pixels) OLED and 16.7 million colors while the new Retinal Display for iPhone 4 has 3.5 inches, 960 × 640-326 and 800 ppi : 1 contrast ratio.
