    "its lousier than VCD quality.
    So it is not suitable for video shooting. Just being very frank."

    you're not being frank, you're just becoming a downright basher

      The winner is clearly the Renoir followed by innov8, then Pixon and C905. Renoir have everything and it does have the best picture quality which you can see in several other tests and that is the number one argument for a 8MP camera phone, thats why ppl buy those things. Renoirs streetprice will also be much lower then the others and the price will drop faster then the others cause LG phones are not very price stable. Only negative point about the Renoir is the design of the phone and the materials, everything looks cheaper then the rivals

          It seems as though the rest of the worlds is light years ahead of the US phone market, is there any hope that we might see something decent 5mp+ in the states anytime soon. The SE c905.......I'll stop dreaming and I guess I'll head back to the variety of boring 1.3mp and lousy 3mp phones that need new graphic drivers that are still unavailable. May be one day.....

                  To me is always SE. It's nice to have favorite brand so it's easier to buy a new phone. So guys... it's better to have favorite one too..

                            I compared these mobiles and my winner is LG for a simple reason, its lightr and smaller than others but still have the widest screen, also it has the virtual reality gamez which are great, the price also best. my second choice would be Innov8. Good luck in your choices.

                                  Your 550 euros "guess" is a full $200 over the actual price of c905.

The c905 has just been released and the innov8 has been on the market for quite a bit now and still is much more. Show a source or else don't just say 550 euros for c905 just to make your point seem valid.

                                      I'll take SE C905 anytime of the day. Im a casual snapper, i never scrutinize every photo that i'd take and the xenon flash is a plus factor.

                                        Read my post again, I have said that for an all in all gadget innov8 is good, I have not said that c905 can be compared to innov8 in all other terms BUT for a cmera phone lover C905 is perfect. And I wonder why samsung has bundled superior video recording with really poor audio recording?strange.
