Photos

The Glyde comes with a 2 megapixel camera. Normally this wouldn't impress us, but the autofocus makes all the difference in the world. Pictures were nice, clean and sharp. Outdoor shots were simply brilliant. Indoor shots suffered the usual problems that poor lighting make, increased grain, and softer images. The flash helped to alleviate this a little bit, but not for subjects more than about 4 feet away.

Video

Video was on par with the still images. Outdoor videos looked good, indoor videos not so good. Thankfully there was very little smearing or ghosting of subjects as you panned about. The Glyde did OK at adjusting to drastic changes in lighting, but it wasn't as fast as we've seen on other phones.
