Today our own review of the C510 saw daylight. It's full of hi-res photos of the handset, sample pictures and of course plenty of information about this little Cyber-shot. Generally, we feel that this is a very good phone with a great price and a probable bestseller. You can find the review here:

PS. It's also my first review. I hope you enjoy it. smile.gif

Very nice smile.gif but shouldn't "which makes converting mass, length, area, temperature and volume units easy as pie." be "which makes converting mass, length, area, temperature and volume units a piece of cake." lol.gif

Too bad that the camera is sooo noisy..

and btw,

Doesn't the green icon in the statusbar mean wifi?

No it's not. smile.gif
You just have to push the edge, as I said in the review.

1. I've just looked up that expression in an idiom dictionary and it's perfectly valid. laugh.gif
2. That was taken from the C905 review. Please disregard that icon. tongue.gif

Nice review NightBlade, could you help me with my problem since you know the phone?
I just want to know what do you mean with "Limited video recording". Read the link i gave to understand what i mean.

It means that it's only 320 x 240 pixels video. There's no length limit.

No problem, the thing is that i also searched YouTube for C510 videos and i only found videos shorter than 30 seconds, that and your test videos that where also short scared me a bit. Now you understand why i asked for help.

Anyway, keep up the good work thumbsup.gif

NightBlade, you own C510 right? Have you or any of your friends got k790 etc? is it possible for you to upload a few sample pics to compare its camera with K790/800/810?
Try full size, Just one or two will be enough..

witchking, the C510 does shitty pictures. I mean that K800 and K810 (i had a K810 before) own the C510 and K790 in picture quality.
Now i have a C10 and i noticed that the shutter time is slower (or so i think so) than the one of K800 or K810, and a i said before, the picture quality is also lower at C510, maybe that's because of the slower shutter time?

The thing is that K790 has a shitty camera also. This means that even though the K790, K800, K810 and C510 have a 3.2 MP camera, the K800 and K810 camera is very good compared to the camera found in the K790 and C510. Than means that the K790 and C510 have a low-end (or shitty if compared to the other tho phones) camera.

I don't want to say that the K790 and C510 are crap, i just bought a C510 and i'm not sad because it takes pictures of a lower quality compared to my old K810, i'm happy because it records video at 320x240 with 30 FPS devil2.gif
I think there is a possiblity that the C510 camera is slighty better than the K790 one, but in the end it can't be compared to the K800 and K810 camera.

I hope i helped smile.gif

The K790, K800 and K810 all share the same camera module...

That means that from the reviews i read about K790 the problem with the lower quality pictures is from the software?

K790 takes pics equivalent in all respects to K800 and K810...

Sorry guys, the C510 was sent back to SE about a week ago. In my opinion it takes slightly worse pictures than the K810 - my old phone. The night pictures are what mostly disappointed me, but I can't say it came as a surprise.
