Cha, 25 Apr 2012I don't understand why people have problems giving credit w... moreThe awards are not just for camera.Don't forget that N8 is a really weak phone in every case such as CPU, ram and even Camera.Although it is 12 mp but the 8mp of Galaxy S2 is much better than it.
I think that the date of Nokia has been expired because nowadays people are looking for smart phones( Androidi or ioS) not symbian phones.I believe the Galaxy Nexus is a real smart phone.

      if guys even own a Galaxy Nexus you'll see it's not all that bad of a camera, I have one and it's a bloody good camera for 5MP the screen helps to show more quality that's why it won, get over it haters :P

          Do you all need to argue about this? So what if 808 won or Nexus? We can't do anything about that. We can't change their decission.

              I don't understand why people have problems giving credit where it's due and handling criticism positively. The fact is G.Nexus has a lousy camera even though it's an awesome phone. That award should have gone to N8, iphone 4s, xperia s etc.
              I'm a nokia fan but I never hesitate to say the lumias are lousy except for the 610.
              As for those bashing on 808, just wait for it's review and watch it's awesome cam tech wipe the floor with your £100 point and shoots and mayb even some entry level DSLRs! Real talk:)

                "TIPA was impressed with the 720p Super AMOLED screen and the zero shutter lag of the Google purebred."

                What?? What do those have to do with imaging quality?

                Can a 720p screen enhance a camera's image quality? NO.

                Zero shutter lag? Sure, it helps (a little), but it definitely won't improve overall image quality!

                          The Man, 25 Apr 2012GSMarena you suppose to be pro since when Camera MP matters... moreLol. The pink spot problem is with the Samsung GS2, Note, etc and the Lumia 800. (Not all the lumias). Check it in google. And what Wave vs N8. N8 is still the king in camera department. Even some proffesional photographers also said it is the best cam in a mobile. Google out the reviews. Just read the facts before posting crap.

                            Hey what's the problem with you all. Nor the Nokia neither Samsung is our fore fathers company. And if any forum gave award to nexus, no need to panic. @gsmarena if you have any doubt or objections on it go and arrange a poll yourself.

How can you critique it when you've never used it. Besides this is not an award for best camera, but camera phone! Stay relevant!

                                    Which 100€ compact camera takes better pictures? You explain it by comparing sensor size. How many 100€ compacts have a bigger sensor than the 808? (or do you mean smaller=better)
