The right side of the phone comprises the volume rocker on top, with the screen lock switch and dedicated camera button below that. The left side of the phone has the micro-USB port, as well as the covered SIM card slot and microSD card slots. The power button is on top, alongside the covered micro-HDMI port and the 3.5mm audio jack. On the front, the N8’s 3.5-inch screen has a thick black bezel, with a camera and proximity sensor on the top right, and the menu/task manager button on the bottom left edge. Featuring angled edges that give it an elongated octagonal shape, everything is quite solid and sturdy, with none of the buttons or plastic port flaps feeling flimsy. The aluminium is also virtually scratch proof, with only very purposeful scratches making the slightest mark on it, leaving the rest to be brushed off. With an outer body built almost entirely out of anodized aluminium, except for plastic buttons and port flaps, the phone has a great dull metallic sheen to it, really making the colour positively glow even in diffused light. Weighing in at 135 grams, the Nokia N8 is not too heavy by the standards of today’s smartphones, and has a nice hefty feel in your hand.
