    Next time take the wrong turn and see how much it takes for each one to recalculate the route.

    looking at the GPS showing the distance.. i feel like im goin on a GTA Mission in real life..

    btw i feel that n8 can be used rather as a Richter scale rather a GPS :P quoting “1:58 to 2:55″ lol

    Yes one could use gps without the need of internet support.
    to do so simply Click on OVI maps tap on the seting icon on your left and click on internet and select ofline.

    @beautifulgooal Yes definitely, but your “Points of Interest” choices would be significantly fewer.

    i would assume one can use the gps free of charge even withouth internet right???

    @htainlintha Well, both phones have to be using hte same version in order for it to be a fair test right? :P

    Great video… Could you repeat the test with both phones in offline mode? And this time find out which phone gets the GPS lock first? Thanks
