The first information about the new smartphone Nokia N8-00 has appeared in the middle of last month. But so far all the data on the functionality of this device have appeared only in the form of rumors. And you know that these rumors are not reliable.

The source of new information has become XML-file, downloaded from nokia.com. So this information may be considered if not official, but at least semi-official.

According to the file, Nokia N8-00 runs Symbian ^ 3 and can offer users AMR processor, Wi-Fi module and display with a resolution of 360 x 640 pixels.

From the same file it became known that the new smartphone has support for GPRS / EGPRS / EDGE and WCDMA / HSDPA networks.

All other data about the Nokia N8-00 are rumors. Recall that according to those data the new smartphone has a 3.5-inch capacitive touch display, 12-megapixel camera with Xenon flash and video recording high-definition resolution of 720p, and HDMI-port.

However, nothing is mentioned of the presence of 12-megapixel camera in the smartphone in the XML-file.

It has been long time since Nokia phones headed “The longest list of features”, but it seems that Nokia N8-00, photos of which “leaked” in the web, can fix the situation. Future flagship smartphone operates on the basis of Symbian ^ 3 platform and is equipped with 4-inch and 12 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics.

Nokia N8-00 offers  x HDMI-port,rare among smartphones, and a huge display with a WVGA-resolution. Xenon flash supports the powerful camera, which should improve the quality of images in low light conditions.

Other specs of Nokia N8-00 remain a mystery, though they say that the smartphone will support multi-touch video recording in 720p at 30 frames per second. There were also references to support video playback in DivX format.

Perhaps, when we have just seen for the first time a new “star”, and we always hope that the photo and the specs are real, and are not rendering the dreams of the  fans of the Finnish manufacturer.
