Lol it's exactly the same. So if you upgrade via Nokia Suite it will ask you if you want to reinstall the current firmware.

Guess I didnt have to wait that long, just conected to OVI suite (guess its not yet available OTA) and the update is ready to download
Nokia said that the update will only be able to be downloaded through Nokia Suite and not through OTA since it is a huge/major update

I am a bit unsure how exactly.

Can you give me step by step directions please

it runs a lot faster, especially when changing screens,, the camera is still fine also seems a little faster
you will just love to have belle on N8,Nokia should have released revamped N8 like iphone s,the phones they released so far don't match N8 in many departments,i would buy it for the third time considering the level of support they give...two OS upgrades in 6months,i like nokia

Alot changed in Belle..
Like there is drop down mean from any screen
You phone runs faster on start up
Scrolling is improved.. (Like much smoother than before...)
Animation from changing screen is also improved.. runs MUCH smoother..
Belle give you a sensation of a NEW PHONE

The N8 is the last true Nokia flagship, under Elops rule, Nokia has released some very dull devices, N9 is the only one that has been interesting, Lumia range so far is just bleh.
