N8 Fail - Reasons Why the Nokia N8 Sucks
About breathing light

Your whining:

Just what’s needed to beat the iPhone. A “Breathing Light”.  What. The. Juddering. Fuck?

Exactly what’s your problem with that? Even if it’s not the worlds most useful feature I don’t understand why are you against it. It seems to me that you are just desperately trying to find something to whine about.

The breathing light tells user that phone still has power in the battery and phone is still running. So you don’t need to turn the screen on just to check if there is still power left, Turning screen on uses much more power than that “breathing light”
