Purposely try the zoom function for u...
The speed was superb. Zooming in each time took less than 1 sec. and the picture was taken in 5 Mega pixel, highest quality the N85 is capable. I am suspecting the review unit has multiple apps running in the background while the reviewer is zooming, since S60 OS is capable of multitask. But for me, when the phone is not multitask, the zooming function i think even some digital camera may not be as fast as the N85.
Zooming in as well as going left, right, up & down in the zoomed picture is less than a second. Its real fast.

But more importantly, go for reputable AP company. Like my case, I went to a good AP company that sells be the N85 which is fully original Nokia set and its exactly the same as the Zitron / Avaxx unit meaning , its localised for Malaysia as well. The T9 is also capable of Eng, Malay, Chinese. Also it readily comes with MMS, GPRS, 3G settings for the local telcos. Also the phone and all the accessories comes with the authentic Nokia sticker.
This AP unit is of course more expensive than other AP company's but its still a lot cheaper compared to the Official Ori unit, but then mine's just as Ori as the Official one.
Ic... thx for the result. Anyway, when I played with the phone in Nokia showroom, the phone has several apps running and the music player seems to be hanged. Eventhough, the zooming speed is still fast. I think my next phone gonna be n85. But I read the review from GSMarena, saying that eventhough n79 and n85 has same camera but Nokia somehow make n85 camera algorithm worsen. As a result, n85 is not able to produce good quality photos compare to other top 5MP cameraphone.
