Yes that was a fully working W995 but strange it has the camera settings. I love technology that is screwed up in ignorant music videos. Anyway was it me or was that W gold?
It's blue / gold / silver on the black ones. Looks quite good in real life.

Actually i was thinking about IDOU .... 
And NOT playing DIVX is a BIG disadvantage and sooner or later SE is gonna release a new W-series with this feature and then you will present it as a plus.... SO PLEASE ....accept it....
And having a CHOICE to use a good CPU is a matter of cost to SE than battery capacity... Trust me IF they want they can use a very good cpu rather than a cheaper one (pusing it as usual to the limit )
from gsmarena.com review of w995
**********************************************
Main disadvantages:
Video recording limited to WQVGA
No lens protection
No DivX/XviD video support (though it's touted as a video-centric phone)
Kickstand construction could've been more reliable
No office document viewer
However, in this respect the W995 fails to deliver, since there's no support for DivX and even better XviD, or any other advanced video codec. A shame really, given the provided 8GB memory card can store hours of high quality video.
Since W995 is not a smartphone, there's no way to install a third party program to get around this disadvantage. DLNA support could have made it a pocketable movie player but apparently, video capabilities took second place to music and imaging.
Of course, you can always convert your video files to the supported MPEG4 format, but that will probably bring down the bitrate and audio quality. Additionally, the regular 3:4 aspect screen will hardly fit widesceeen videos nicely.

Any news about the SAR level ????????

How about finding the right thread then?
The DivX / XviD talk is bullocks. There's no point in having it on a phone with a QVGA display. Regular DivX / XviD videos take up a lot more memory than a converted video would do. Besides, most computers nowadays can convert an entire movie in less than 30 minutes. My PC does it in 10 minutes.
Regarding CPU speed, you shouldn't comment on something you haven't tried. The W995 is fast and even the very early software is rock solid.
By the way, GSMArena's review of this phone sucks. There will be no WQVGA video recordings.
And this quote is false: "Of course, you can always convert your video files to the supported MPEG4 format, but that will probably bring down the bitrate and audio quality".
No one says you have to bring down the video bitrate or audio quality when converting, but there's no reason why you shouldn't bring down the video bitrate, seeing you'll be converting a high resolution video file to a low resolution video file.

I suggest you bring your w910 to update fw at service center latest fw is quite stable
...................................................
Damn it! I wasted my time with first prototype review READER I feel disappointed myself a bit. So I'm TESTER
You should know that IT'S FIRST PROTOTYPE WITH EARLY FIRMWARE SO IT'S PREVIEW NOT REVIEW......
ANYWAY FINAL UNITS STILL MP4 NOT DivX

Well i said "think" .... not "decide" !
10 minutes for a movie ???? You must be jocking... at least half an hour...!
But i must agree with you...there is no point to see a DIVX in the boring analysis of 320*240 ............... (but what's the point of a phone called media phone ??? qvga recording and mp4 player in a 2.6 inches screen 320*240 ?? )
With these specs the price should begin at 380-400 euros max ...
Otherwise sorry i won't buy it...

Sealover stop your bitching. Please. 10 minutes max is the same thing for me. I mean people have things called a computer with good spec. You know 4GB of ram, a duo core processor, 2.88GHz the works? And if you hate how they are advertising their phone as a media phone when it can work perfectly fine without one format so? I figure its fine if I can watch my movie at a decent framerate and picture quality. So yeah stop bitching and if you have nothing to say the door is that a way. |

well we have sth called dialog here with different opinions in the same subject... (do you want a monologue of 3 people here ??? )
So i have 4GB RAM 800MHZ with Intel Core quad processor 2.83 Ghz and still the time is ~35 minutes ... Do i have to make a screenshot for you?
The only thing i agree is that 320*240 is too low even if it had a DIVX player..
So any news about the SAR yet ? This is very important for me... (higher than 1.0 is bad ...)
And as for innov8 ... well at least the SAR is 0.4 which is VERY VERY good 
But innov8 has some other MAUJURE disadvanteges that makes it BAD choice for me..
