This is an example test video of the Nokia 2730 video camera camcorder  feature. In order to compare and contrast the video and audio capture qualities of this 2 megapixel mobile cellular phone with others of the  same megapixel camera and price range, the video capture was taken  while holding three different cell phones at the exact same time,  namely the:

Samsung Vice
LG Neon TE365
Nokia 2730 

All handy's were set to their highest quality settings for video capture. I have also posted the example test videos of the other two  mobile phones right here on YouTube, for you to hold your own comparison and review. 

Overall, the LG Neon gave the best video quality and resolution (320X240) while the Nokia 2730 gave the worst (with a maximum  resolution of 176X144). Sound capture, however, seemed best on the Nokia 2730, with the LG Neon sounding low and muffled (should be noted that the microphone was on the opposite side of the phone to which my  mouth was facing, then again, all three phones were like this.) The audio capture of the Samsung Vice didn't even play audibly using VLC  Media Player on my home computer (but did play when watching the video back on the handheld itself.) 

For compression and file size sakes, the LG Neon produced a 3gp video file that for 5:32 of recorded video took up 15,799kb of space. The Samsung Vice produced a 3g2 video file that for 5:26 of recorded video took up 5,429kb of space. Finally, the Nokia 2730 produced a 3gp video file that for 5:28 of recorded video took up 4,592kb of space.

Not directly related, but in still image photo camera tests, seeing a difference between pictures taken with the LG Neon and Samsung Vice were difficult to spot on my computer monitor, but the Nokia 2730  produced the blurriest and haziest images of the three. All three produced 1600X1200 jpeg images, with the Samsung Vice producing the biggest pics in space allotment (578 and 748 kb), next the LG Neon with still images of 267 and 394 kb, and finally, smallest size for the lowest quality images: the Nokia 2730 with photos of 246 and 340 kb.
