how i see it. the video was generally good. but suffers in low light, also cant cope with fast action shots. but overall for a HD video it was good.

must of cost a fortune in actor fees. but nokia can afford it. bit jerky in places but that could of been the rendering of the video online.

    *sigh* ..what's new? It's always "My phone is better than yours" on the GSMArena comments section. You guys should get out more ;p

    On topic. The video is good, but I'm sure some are tweaked in post-production. But still very good. :)

      And you can't tell iPhone and android users that pinch to zoom is not useful. Every iPhone and android user (the ones that can) uses pinch to zoom.

      If you had it you would use it

        plus most of them don't even know WTF multitouch is

        XD
        i only see multitouch useful in games,typing and drawing and that's about it

        for the N900 there was the swirling zoom that i found much better then PtoZ

                    Video quality very poor in indoor lightings. And in some oudoor conditions as well. Not impress. Totally not impress. Such magnificent hardware on paper, mismatched with disappointing actual performance. What is Nokia doing?

                            And who wants a desktop browser on a 4 inch screen? It needs a browser made for a screen that size.

                                Yes, no dude, for making a good loocking film/video, you need cinema capture technnologies (Fluid head tripod, steadycam, modern light, like HMI, led light, every kind of filters, big fabric green or blue, railway and panther, wireless remote monitor for control acting, lift, sand bag, wooden box, professional technicians, an inteligent script, skill full editor, a color grade artist, sound/music composer etc...etc...and the camera: ARRI, Panvision, Sony, Canon, Panasonic and now Nokia N8!, the result is excellent. Good for Nokia N8!!

                                  I often use safari and mail on my iPhone because it's actually easier and more user friendly than firefox on my pc.

                                        http://techcrunch.com/2010/04/14/smaato-march/

                                        The big fault?
                                        Smaato is registering CLICKS.
                                        Admob is registering REQUESTS.

                                        So smaatos report is flawed. Admins is more accurate because it records the ads being downloaded by the smartphone browsers.

                                        This also means something else:
                                        Symbian users click on more ads!

                                        There is a direct correlation between ad clicking and lack of intelligence! Symbian users are less intelligent:
