Ray Hipkiss, 03 Jan 2012 It's got nothing to do with how many mega pixels the camera supports. It's all about the ph... more
Dear Ray,

You've been giving so much useful information about N8 for a long time and I've read lots of your comments.. Particularly unbiased comments...

But this time I am unable to agree with what you said 'N8 GPU is not capable of recording 1080p videos since it's not that powerful'

I agree with you it's not a powerful GPU which N8 has, but still it can record 1080p videos 30 fps as well as 25 fps without any problem..

I'm saying this because I've done it using MODs as well as Camera Pro software.. You'll notice bit of a lag when recording but the recorded video doesn't have that lag at all..

Then why Nokia didn't want to implement this feature default?

For me reasons are obvious.

1) They were bit worried about the visible lag when recording (Probably due to less processing power of N8)

2) The size of 1080p 30 fps videos captured by N8 is HUGE... I mean really really huge... If I say, for a one minute recording the size of the file was around 300 MB...! Who wants such a massive recorded file...?? (Personally I don't want...!)

Please correct me if I'm wrong..

    i've got the auto switch-off problem with N8 right after a week i own that. the problem starts since the set is in general mode and it acts like battery low, but the same amount of charge is stable when the phone is in offline mode!?

        Its great with 12 megapixel camera having xenon flash.
        Anodized Aluminium Body and Scratch less Gorilla glass.
        But it has only 256 RAM and the front camera is also not so good.
        So, when you use different apps at a time it slows down.
