Camera – “unlimited” video recording length option is still limited
“Unlimited”, in very simple terms, means “no limit” – and nothing more. But in the case of the S700i and its video clip recording function, the definition seems to differ somewhat.
A user has the choice of either choosing the “limited” or “unlimited” video recording length option. Choosing the former option will restrict the video file size to around 100kB, which is the standard maximum size for MMS messages supported by most GSM networks – while the latter is supposed to allow for a recording to continue until a user decides to stop it or where memory is low (and the phone automatically stops it then).
Unfortunately, it seems that the S700i has also imposed a limit to the “unlimited” option, allowing video clips to take a maximum file size of around 970kB only. While the time length of a clip differed greatly, the upper size limit of the clip never changed during my tests – irrespective of whether internal or external memory was being used to save the file.
Again, this is an unfortunate software bug of the S700i, which should be addressed in the next major software revision for the phone (hopefully!)

Is that true?
