Video playback was smooth and nice on the phone’s big screen. Playing supported video and music formats is pretty much idiot-proof.
Subsonic is an exciting new game that comes with Nokia N96. Unfortunately, downloading new games was a nightmare. I tried downloading a game but it took hours and I fell asleep. When I woke up, the battery was flat so I re-charged it, but the game was still not there. I wonder if it’s a bug from the Nokia site. However, installing free-trial games already included in the package was easy and waiting time for setup to load was minimal.
However, the playback of mioTV programmes was not smooth, and I’m not sure if it was caused by the phone or the operator (my Wi-Fi speed is around 22Mbps, as I am using a 100Mbps plan). Mobile TV is great but it is turnoff after 5 mins with the matchbox-size screen.
