just took this with the camera, looks ok for a camera photo i think

Are you able to set the camera to the 3MP setting? Both yours and Simmz' pictures are 1600x1200, which is ~2MP - that's unless you both resized the photos to that size.

The quality isn't too impressive, but it was only £150 so you can't expect too much! .

Not sure, haven't had time to read the English manual yet. Will test it properly on Saturday.

Ah not to bothered anyway as I have a decent digital camera. Always nice though to get snaps of friends at times and I don't think the quality is that bad. The video recording is nice too and it also saved me buying a webcam as I can use it as one

I was going to buy a Nokia n80 or a SE k800 but I can't afford to pay the £500 for a sim free one, so at the end of the day £150 I think is a good find.

The movie player is by far the best I have seen so far. Although it's only mpeg4 the quality is perfect.

Yup, not up to the better 2.0 megapixel camera phones out there!

Camera phones are never decent though. I've seen a normal 1mp dig cam beat any camera phone hands down.

Even the Nokia N80 and the Sony Ericsson K800 for 3pm don't look that decent from the review below.

Although there getting better, I still think it's a long way off before a decent phone camera arrives.

Yea, you need to convert it to mpeg4 first then just drop and drag it into the Movie folder.

Personally don't care much about the camera or movie player. How is it as a phone? Speed of the menus? Is it easy to text and use? Call quality and reception?

Menu speeds are fine no slow down. Txt is easy as long as you don't mind not having predictive text. Battery seems very very good too, been watching my South Park episodes on it and listening to music and the battery is still nearly on full after 36 hours.
