Review: Microsoft Kin One and Two

Music Camera Photos/Video Browse/Customize Extras  

I've already mentioned how frustrating it is to use the physical camera key on the Kin Two, but what about the camera itself? Well, it's not bad. It suffers from the same faults that all its touch-based brethren do, in that tapping the screen while shooting a picture to alter settings can be a pain in the rear. That said, the Kin's camera works pretty well.

It focuses quickly, shoots pictures quickly, and lets you get back to the business of taking pictures in short order. The settings allow users to adjust resolution, picture quality, flash, geotags and white balance.

As a camera, it behaves on par with the competition. Of course, it also lets users share images instantly via Facebook, email or MMS.

 

The Video Camera feature works in identical fashion.

The gallery is a simple grid of photos. Users can choose to send them, upload them, or delete them. That's pretty much it. No advanced editing features, and no fancy user interface elements to improve the experience.
