    Why is BlackBerry's quality look so mediocre when compared to iPhone?

    Is this Hardware or Software, will it improve in the near future?

    This was one of the reasons why I considered switching since I'm having problems finding the perfect 9700. But I hate the touch so I'll keep trying...

    I think its because the iphone loads the youtube videos as mp4s where as the bb loads the videos with a mobile format (3gpp or something like that) dropping the quality. If RIM creates a youtube app that loads videos with the mp4 format video quality would be improved.

    See I wasn't all that impressed with my friends iphone. I was expecting hd quality based on what i heard on this site, but it still was pixalated and choppy just like my storm2.

    Maybe you watched a bad quality video? I remember that YouTube videos looked excellent back when I had an iPhone. It's not HD, but its still good. Much better than any BlackBerry when it comes to watching a YouTube video.

    Did you watch the same youtube video with the iphone and your storm?

    To be honest, youtube on bb is not mediocre, it is pooor!
    I find it very disappointing to see the quality of the videos, to be serious, the quality is almost unacceptable: video and sound are so poor that i dont want to watch youtube
