Get best video entertainment on Nokia N96

Nokia N96 has been one of the most advanced smartphones crowed about by the company and well spurred the market and drawn people’s heartthrobs. With a large 2.8 inch screen and high volume internal memory, N96 does accord with its reputation of being a super multimedia cell phone. While the video playback capacity has been great lifted, there is still a big margin before it catches up with the mainstream computers. In other words, one should not be too excited to expect N96 would be able to smoothly play any kinds of videos you play on your PC. To better your understanding on the threshold of N96’s video playback, here we are going to wheel test it with videos of various profiles.

To stand out from average cell phones, N96 can support a wide range of video formats as is mentioned on the official website.

As we know, the screen size, encoding, frame rate and bit rate of the video are essential factors that affect the smoothness of playback. A larger screen size, higher frame rate or bit rate means higher CPU consumption. Once the consumption exceeds the CPU’s performance, we get a serious frame drop or playback failure as a result. We pick 15 experimental video clips and test them on N96 one by one to see how well the phone can deal with them.

MP4 playback test:

Despite the physical resolution of QVGA 320*240, N96 can smoothly decode and play MP4 videos at VGA 640*480 with satisfactory results. However, larger than VGA resolutions are not supported, while there are slight frame drop at VGA resolution with frame rate up to 30 or above. A switch to more complicated codec H.264 can labor the CPU even further.

AVI playback test:

It is kind of unexpected that N96 fail to play AVI videos which are popular on PC platform.

3GP playback test:

Because of its primary intention to work on cell phones, 3GP is not a tough bone for N96 to bite.

FLV playback test:

As a famous network video format, FLV reduces the file size and lowers the requirement for the platform. No wonder N96 can pass this test easily.

RM playback test:

RMVB playback test:

While N96 triumphs through most of the tests above, it goes Waterloo in the RM and RMVB playback test. Since RM and RMVB are still the preferred formats for most movies, such as cartoons and motion pictures, it has to say it is a pity that N96 fails to meet expectations.

Well, there is still a best way to get around the sad outcome and enjoy your videos on N96!
