- The olephobic screen of the new iPhone is noticeable and does seem to make a difference with fingerprints.
- "Speed is impressive"
- Video recording quality is just ok, dependent of ambient light.

Pretty interesting. I'm looking forward to seeing how it does with video. I was surprised by the camera, and still constantly am. The pricing though... yeesh...

OK, I'm jealous now. This recession needs to end so I can afford new toys and get rid of my 'reboot 6 times a day, lagging, NO volume' iPhone 2G. :D

"- Video recording quality is just ok, dependent of ambient light."

That's silly. That's like saying "Range of car is just ok, dependent of how much gas you put in the tank."

Of course quality of any photo or video is going to decrease as light decreases. Duh. What was the author honestly expecting?

Yeah, from the first couple seconds of the video I noticed the screen looked different - then I read about on MacRumors. So yay!
