Camera startup speed: N82 vs N95-8GB vs N95 vs N93

I received quite a few requests from readers who want me to measure the startup times of the phone cams after I did the image processing times videos.

Firstly, I must apologise that the N73 is not with me anymore as I returned it to Nokia already. I only had it to review some Ngage games, so I can't use it in this comparison. Secondly, posting videos take too much time to upload and process, so I'll just take still shots of the timings and you'll just have to trust that I did it as consistently as I could.

The measurement process:
1) I turn on and off the camera 3 times
2) On the 4th time, I measure the time taken from the moment I flick on the camera switch the the moment an image with the camera menu appears on the screens.

Here are the results.


N82 camera startup time


N95-8GB camera startup time


For the N95, before I did any measurements, I updated to the latest firmware:


N95 (firmware version 12.0.014) camera startup time


N93 camera startup time



One thing that deserves special mention is that after the firmware upgrade, the N95 is much faster than before. It just does everything faster, from starting up to getting GPS satellite fixes. Fantastic! This is a must-do for N95-1 owners. It brings the user experience much closer to that of an N95-8GB.

Other than that, the results were pretty predictable and reflects how it feels to use the devices.

I wonder why the N93 has the fastest startup time, any ideas?

chickenbackside said...

No idea rajaie. I'm not a very technical person. Perhaps someone else knows the answer? Maybe the camera being of a lower resolution one has something to do with it? Wild guessing here.

Rajaie AlKorani said...

Maybe you could test the E90 camera since they both have same resolution.

I just did. It's much slower.

I think it s because of the reason that nokia n93 has still the fastes graphic engine. I know its the same but try something like a sp mark score u will the that n93 is much faster than n95 and n95 8gb. Hope I could help.
