for all haters..can you close your mouth please? Why youre always hate nokia? So what problem if they still made a phone with belle system? They made it because of they think its ok with the people..and that was right in nokia..in my town they love it anymore and few of them left android and go for belle again. 41 mp is the real specs of this phone ..not 5mp. One more..please keep in your mind,nokia always made a phone dependent with the market situation and i dont have the problem with this phone model..honestly im the fans of nokia ..i can say its so ugly model..but in the case ..have you think,is a good phone if they have a beuaty model but have bad feauture? I better have an ugly phone with good feature like this phone than have a beuaty phone but bad at all.

      It can max utilize 38 MP of the sensor thus giving out a better quality even though when you shoot at 5MP,8MP etc, not to shoot exactly at 38 MP.

          Having a great camera on a phone will not make anybody take mind blowing photos with it.

            daisuke white winter, 27 Feb 2012i very agree with u dude,its not fair to compare this phone... moreThat's why I never had lost my faith in Nokia... With symbian, wp and series 40(soon to be Tizen) the king is still unbeatable... Wp phones made Nokia more popular in the us.. Thyre just on the right path... n8 sold 4million in a month and still selling this year... This successor will exceed that... Symbian belle is a mature os and very efficient even on 256mb ram phones!

              High mp count + small sensor(noise reduction) + small lens(not enough resolving power) + lossy compression = huge soft images.

              You can see 35mm lens resolution test here: http://www.photozone.de

              Threre are very few 35mm lens which will resolve 40 mp, imagine how much less will that tiny lens in that phone yield?

                          Even if its has superior imaging capabilities, isnt it disastrous to watch them over 640*360 res screen. WTF. NOKIA, YOU LOSE AGAIN

                            This is like the old Altek Leo/ new Kodak Polaroid phone. Enormous camera(this has a great design too), not so big in other specs. If you take out the camera nokia lumia 900 has better everything than this. And probably this is Microsoft's plan to kill old Nokia(better Simbian Phones could mean a revamp for Nokia and less WP7 Nokia's sold) and acquire new one in his dirty hands.
                            Same outdated display as in n8(stretched to 4 inch) when they have mid-end phomes with better resolution?
                            512mb are ok for Symbian but single core 1.2 Ghz? Why not dualcore to get the most of that camera(full Hd recording, fast shots... )?
                            Despite the enormous number of MP in the camera, nokia could lose cameraphone crowd to one of the new 12 MP phones( Xperia Ion, Xperia S, probably Samsung Galaxy S3 and Iphone 5)whith better everything than it.

                                Ppl talk lyk'its got 41mp who cares about relolution,ram, processor,design,os'. If all u wanted was a camera for a smartphone den go buy a dslr wid nokia asha. Put together they might cost less than this 'smartphone'

                                  Good camera. Bad OS. VERY LOW screen resolution - 640x360

                                  It's like we're living 4 years ago. lol
