    [deleted post]Bro. You need to put the computer down and go for a walk, all this fanboyism about mobile phones is affecting you personally, both mentally and grammatically! Just saying!

    Anyway, on the topic of the iPhone, I think the camera is fine. I don't believe it's certainly any better than that of the N8, Altek Leo and some others, but it's no big deal people! It'll do just well for the consumers that are buying it, people who just need to point and shoot and put on their social network page. Besides, the quality looks pretty good. Cheers! =D

        really nice pics and video.the problem is that the inviroment where the pics and video were thaken are perfect.i am very curious what it can do in dificult conditions.its not the best 5mp camera from what i see here but it sure is at the top,that is my opinion on the camera.on the apple phones in general is bad not because of the phones but because of the overpricing.at any other company you khan buy 2 phones each one having more features at the same price as 1 iphone.

            "The guy behind the nickname Swenak also captured a short HD video with the iPhone 4. It looks impressive and it's the best we've seen from a mobile phone to-date"

              Read the article again, it does not say that the photos are the best yet.

                It's an excellent photos for Apple alone but for smartphone segment It's just an ordinary 5MP photo, even an average guys like me can obviously notice it. And for GSMarena how could you say its the best photo taken from a phone as-of-todate, you're beginning to talk like Steve Jobs, treating us like the i-ish. I don't know if you're articles in the future is worth of value anymore to consumers. I will still read it but then I will seek another opinion from other reviews to supplement yours. You're beginning to be biased in a more obvious way.

                  [deleted post]Why your hate to Nokia or even to Samsung. It's silliness. There is no reason to feed hatreds with those brands, if they are which sell more in the world for something it is.

                    "How do explain that Nokias, Sony Ericsson, HTC's, Samsungs and Blackberrys never drop any calls in the same roaming area? Network?"

                    Okay let us not be silly and spread misinformation. You certainly have not used all the phone offerings from each of those brands to say the brand on a whole does not drop any calls. And dropping calls could be the phone, network, or even environment.

                    Some phones do manage to do a better job than others given all things equal, but just because your call drops on your Samsung/Nokia/Motorola/SE/BB/iphone/LG phone does not mean all phones in said brand drop calls.

                        Heartbreak Kid, 21 Jun 2010What the Samsung Wave does is try and bring it great specs ... moreThere to be Samsung doesn't means that is bad or worse, both the screen of the Wave and the Samsung Galaxy S have screens more responsives that the majority of the multi-touch phones, i don't say that they have screens more responsives than the screen of the Iphone 4 but they do better job than majority of the moulti-touch Smartphones and their Sense UI are very responsive and the Wave Bada moulti-touch interface it's very responsive, fast and fluid, it's not as good as of the IOS but with the time will come close to IOS, because for the start the Bada OS it'isnt bad. And other question, these two Samsung phones share the same Samsung processor that the Iphone 4, the Samsung Hummingbird and they aren't made of plastic, they are manufatured of glass on the screen and of metal on the body, like many people have saying here.

                          The n900 IS a computer and nothing can touch it
                          Plus nokia's dev team and make an firmware update to record 720p as well plus is has dual LED lens and still have full HTmL with flash and can have a video editing app on it

                              No i don't work in a mobile store, read my comment again. I guess people didn't understand that i was being sarcastic and trying to show how easy it is to just write that you work in mobile store and tell people that your brand sells the most this and that bla bla bla followed by other nonsense and bullsh*t. Like the "Orange" retail guy i answered the comment to.

                                  The photo quality on this new iphone is good, and the video is also pleasing to the eye. I don't know why so many are bashing it??

                                  It's a shame the N900 or N8 didnt get the same publicity, as they truly deserve it. I suppose it's one of the reasons why so many fans of Nokia and SE hate Apple.
