i agree real let down how the hell do they expect me to trim a video to my desired length to use as video ring tones these chumps =(

damn n96 is retarded slow processor that is probably why but when i i tried to install a third party app (arcsoft) with the video editing features says component built in???

I have the N96 and my bro has the N95, he found out about this and constantly mocks my N96’s clear dissapointing lack of video editor whenever i point out that my phone is the upgrade to his… To nokia u must realise this makes your upgrade seem in some way quite sad to be losing out in any areas to a phone thats over 2 years old now, please sort out some sort of update firmware that brings back the video editor with more than evr so i can rub it in his face! ;’(

well nokia some times is really acting smart and to me it’s just for maintaining sale of a phone. None of their phones is 100% complete nokia when it comes to features…n96 without a video editor is insane but i expect that there must be 3rd party apps to solve this problem.

О, это что-то, недавно где-то уже о таком слышала. Ваше мнение имеет основание быть. Вы понимаете то, о чем пишите. Немного почитав, хотелось бы узнать больше.

Hi, just to clarify I work for Nokia so I have access to the devices. I’ll write my own review of 5800 on S60 Blogs when it is shipping.

Jukka, thanks for the heads up! I am really looking forward to widescreen video!

Sonia, he not only would have the 5800, but also a few other unreleased devices!

@Jukka: u got the phone? i so envy u.

Happy to confirm that 5800 XpressMusic has the video editor, and it’s nice to use with touch

Actually shooting and playing video is one of the coolest features on 5800, the widescreen display with a high resolution makes a difference.

I agree with the author.

I’m not using the editor enought, to not be able to live without it, but as more i use the features of my phone the more i need it.

Why? Because the has more storage, and i’m not longer recorde, 30 sec. Send it by mms and the remove it.

I take longer shots and save same. Often too long to upload them.
So, if my phone is cabable of handling so “big/long” files, why should i use a pc, to cut it down for upload?

Good article! Thanks for pointing out this shortcoming of *every Nokia since the N95-3*. I use the video editor every day and yes I could live without it, but I can’t do my work without it. Thanks for posting the screenshots! Some users might not know what they’re missing out on.

I’m skipping the N85 because it does not have the video editor. I’m looking forward to seeing the video editor on the Music Express 5800, because that’s the first Touch enabled editor. But I’ll probably wait for another device with both a Carl Ziess lens and the video editor before I’ll purchase.

Yes, Rohit. It does matter to some people, even if it doesn’t matter to you.

@Rohit- to each his own dude, there are people who buy phones because of some specific features, the features which you mentioned as ur likings can b found on most nseries or othr samsung fones, n96 is nthn but n95 wid betr memory and n81 looks. there are people who just buy phones for looks but without even knowing how to use the features

I’m not using video editor often, actually quite recently I started to do video with my n95. For now I could do without video editor. But the way I began to use editor I don’t think I could do without it in future. Really, I don’t understand why Nokia didn’t put editor in N96, to me it seems as a quite important feature for multimedia phone.

Rohit. You think you know what I want in a phone? You apparently dont understand MY needs in a phone that was chosen BECAUSE of it’s video capabilities. A video editor in my phone IS the one thing I require being a mobile videoblogger.

Rohit, a video editor doesn’t really swing my decision about buying a phone and make no mistake I quite like the N96 in some aspects. If fact I had the review ready, but I decided against publishing it for the simple reason that the current firmware is crap and may be the upcoming v12 brings a better experience.
