S60 NYC EVENT MY COMMENTS ON THE NEW DEVICES.
I was impressed by the build quality and the thinness on the n85, the slide was nice and tight the oled screen looks great and the ui also seemed very fast. The camera took about 4 seconds to load, but saved instantaneously. The zooming in on a picture after it was taken was nice, smooth transaction, no longer a scrolling line going across and the screen says zooming, it actually seems to just glide into the larger image. Let me just remind you guys i only had about 3 minutes per device, so this is all based on just a few minutes playing with it.
The camera button on the n96 felt a little stiff, and for some reason the dual led wasn’t working when i tried taking pictures (yes i had it on).
All in all it was great event, I met some of the S60 people Dan, Raj, Saara, Oren, and of course my battery hijacker Chanse Arrington (kidding), and of course how can I forget my HOFO buddies and Howard Chui himself..
Below is slide show of pictures taken from the event.. Enjoy!!
