OK so repeating this test one two separate occasions (to a total of 3 times), the Shockwave plugin for Google Chrome crashed.

I’m not sure what I’ve done, but ever since I was watching a Verge video while violently resizing the video to try and break the responsive design, my Chrome isn’t happy at all and not loading feature rich pages :p. It past the test by the way, I like how it chose different stream instantly when it reached different sizes etc. Shortly after while popping out the window from a tab and closing it, the browser froze up and keeled over though haha

Killing Chrome instead of just closing and re-opening fixed it. I am sure it was just a one off thing to do with my particular setup, with the extensions I have installed, at that particular time.

5 pages just for ad views is going a bit far isn’t it! I don’t like it at all, but could at least understand if it was just 2 pages:p

Did anyone else get the feeling that the video shot was going wide to a shot of him when things were getting a bit hairy :p? I also noticed some lag with the swipes and some inaccuracies when he was touching / swiping the screen.

But due to this being a budget phone, I suppose none of that matters and I’m being picky. It does seem like a pretty good feature phone and a decent attempt from Nokia, as it works and also looks desirable.

Or give it back to eBay as it’s eBay’s money they have stolen (*if proven guilty in a court of law blah) and therefore up to eBay on how they spend it (e.g. fast cars and holidays or food for the poor).

Lovely thought though, it would be great to set up some sort of program to get them through school and maybe employed with eBay later, so eBay get some trained staff out of it at least
