HTC Magic sample video

The HTC Magic camera is identical to the T-Mobile G1 camera, and similar to the HTC Touch Pro camera if youve read my review of the G1 camera, youve read my review of the Magic camera :)

The good decent low-light performance. The bad occasional color balance problems, despite an iteration in firmware (Android 1.5)

Like the Touch Pro, theres no dedicated 2-stage shutter button. The trackball is also the shutter button. Pressing it focuses the camera and releasing it takes the picture. This is manageable, but far from ideal!

The resulting pictures are reasonably nice, and the addition of CIF video recording (352×288 pixels) and Qik support are welcome.

is it me or is the iphone 3g s better quality wise????...side by side comparison will prove that.

[qrpkgrl]

Of course the iPhone 3GS is better since it uses VGA resolution (vs. CIF on teh Magic), uses auto-focus during video recording (which the Magic does not), and uses a better audio CODEC,

well, i never paid tripple for the iphone, i don't even have one, anyone would be stupid to pay that much don't u think?

Okay, it's double. Here you pay about 690€ without a contract. The Magic costs below 300.. and it's NOT apple. ;)

And the 3GS costs triple.
