    There is nothing to go 'Oh my gosh, did you see how they test their phones' about. SE, Samsung, LG and all other manufacturers has similar testing facilities.

      All this hardware testing, but its obvious they dont spend any time testing software. The N series firmware was coded by retards.

            What's wrong with Nokia ?

            After revealed the future phone roadmap with 8 megapixel and VGA screen, now with testing hardware facility.

            It's not surprised, because other manufacture got that facility too. All manufacture also test every product before released in market, not only Nokia.

            And the most important is, other manufacture now working on 12 megapixel and WVGA screen for the next year.

                    First things first nokia r the best. Im 23 and have been using nokias on and off for 10 years and was devoted to nokia but i got bored of them a fey years agn so ive used other phones like samsung e250 which has its pro's and con's, motarola v3 which is crap so dont eva buy a motorola, se k750i really good but the analogue stick went on it which really annoyed me and put me off se for life, ive also had a siemens sl 65 and a sagem myx5 and they were hopeless so i am now using a nokia 5300 music express phone which i love but its a little bulky so im going 2 buy the nokia 5610 because its like the 5300 but is slim like the samsung e250. So basically get yaself a nokia they r brilliant and if your gonna buy a nokia you shud compliment it with being on the o2 network it makes sense ive been on o2 for 25 months with the same number and they are in my eyes the most dominant network out their 2day. So take it from me get yaself a nokia on o2 and enjoy, every1 have a great xmas and a happy new year.

                          It seems to me a marketing video, in which Nokia shows off in what tests they make, in order to attract many buyers.
                          Most of the tools used in the video seem a bit unprofessional... c'mon, a giant like Nokia to use such testing tools?

                              they should do these tests (bending, dropping etc.) with phones turned on, so you could see their lcd-s breaking and mother boards failing

                                instead of making crapy average phones sturdy for masses nokia should also make some elegent phones of high class such as xperia x1

                                  Pity Nokia still has poor battery life and N's have massive problems.
