Surprisingly, Nokia 5230 records high quality videos same as 5530 and 5800 XpressMusic. It easily beats Corby, Star and Cookie in video recording department . It records big size videos in the resolution of 640×360 pixels whereas Samsung Star , LG KP500 and Samsung Corby records video up to 320×240 P. The other difference is in Frames Rate.As 5230 records videos at 30 frames per second the video runs smoothly whereas its competitors record mediocre quality videos at 15 fps.

Pl. tell me if there any option in 3rd party/NOKIA software or firmware update that video call is possible through 5230. We are using it on E63 and N82 with my boss.

ders no front camera in 5230???????

Nokia 5230 can’t do video calling because it does not have a front facing camera. It has got 3G and A-GPS. It’s camera has a wide aperture f/2.8 and a bigger sensor unlike 5800…therefore it has better image quality.
3G has no relation with front camera.
