Nokia Lumia 920 vs One X & Galaxy S III Video Comparison, Wish Your Device Was This Stable?

Our friends over at Engadget recently put together some videos demonstrating the Nokia Lumia 920′s sophisticated suspension mechanism for their camera module which can compensate for up to 500 movements per second.  In these videos, this innovative new phone camera is pitted against some of our favorite Android devices, the Samsung Galaxy S III and the HTC One X.  I know we’re comparing these Android devices to a Windows Phone 8 device that isn’t supposed to be released until November 2, but what do you think of the comparison?  I’m generally not running around video taping things, but I could definitely see this come in handy taking video while chasing my kids doing something ridiculous.  Is this a feature you’d like to see on some upcoming Android devices?  Even at the cost of some device thickness?  Or would you rather have your money spent in other places?  Let us know your thoughts…

HTC One X was digitally zoomed, @FAIL

When you enable stabilization on the OneX, it zooms in.  The GS3 for being digital is actually not bad, but the Lumia just throws both of them on the ground, snorts bath salts, and then eats their brains.

Many phones use only the center of their sensors for 1080p video. The Galaxy S II and the iPhone 4S for sure do. Meaning when you enable 1080p over 720p, it zooms in a lot.
