Nokia 808 Pureview: Price, Release Date, Specs of the 41-Megapixel Camera Phone

Nokia has just announced the 808 PureView during its press conference at Mobile World Congress 2012. The  808 PureView is a camera-centric Symbian phone which definitely is a photographer’s dream and a smartphone enthusiast’s nightmare. Besides a jaw-dropping 41-megapixel camera, the Nokia 808 PureView is also powered by Symbian Belle, a dated operating system Nokia is currently in the process of tossing to the curb. The high-resolution 41-megapixel sensor amazingly include Carl Zeiss optics and new pixel oversampling technology that allows users to zoom without any loss of clarity when taking pictures at low resolution. The camera also assists users to record 1080p videos in very low light situations at 30 frames per second and is capable of capturing video and photos at the same time. Especially, the camera will not lose clarity while it zooms.


According Nokia, the Nokia 808 PureView is the first smartphone to feature Nokia PureView imaging technologies, including high-resolution sensors and optics from Carl Zeiss
