Nokia recently announced the last major Symbian phone. A replacement to my current phone, the Nokia N8. I love the camera, among other things, about the N8 and this Pureview 808 has a game changing 41Megapixels! It is a huge difference between the N8's 12 MP and the 808 Pureview's 41MP. All the fools have come out saying how it will probably be worse than a normal 5MP camera, and it's really down to processors and apertures. I know the higher the number of megapixels doesn't mean a better camera but surely the photos will be pretty damn good. The guys at Nokia are claiming poster sized pics will look great and that zooming in will be done after the photo has been taken so you take a pic and then just crop and edit after the fact to get the part of the pic you want. Obviously this will need to be done as each photo will take up about 10MB and sending a series of those will soon exceed file sizes and piss off people trying to save memory.
So my dilemma is this, should I get this for a great camera, even though the O/S will be pretty much the same as my N8 or do I just admire from afar and go with a Nokia Windows phone? I really want to like Windows Mobile and until Android does EVERY thing that I want it to do I think I will just have to stick with Nokia.
