Nokia unveiled its latest smartphone today, the Nokia N8.

Packed with a 12 megapixel camera, Symbian 3 software and 3.5" capacitive touch screen, the N8 is Nokia's latest attempt at a portable entertainment centre. The N8 also includes HDMI output, 16GB internal storage with a microSD expansion slot and HD video recording.

The N8 is also backed by a full range of services including Nokia's Ovi store and Ovi Maps navigation software. Symbian 3 also supports multitouch gestures like pinch to zoom. HD video recording will allow the device to record at 720p HD resolution and with the inbuilt HDMI port consumers can play their footage on large screen TVs.

The N8 will go on sale later this year priced at €370 (before tax).
