This is still future technology. By the time 4K TVs become affordable, this should be ready to roll out.

AnonD-49259, 23 May 2012okay you guys say this is pointless now. bt just watch ... moreYou're right. people are for sure loosing their minds and care for numbers only. It's cool and everything. But personaly, if i wanted to make some high quality photo/video, i would choose gadgets originaly ment for this kind of task.

I personally would prefer a smaller MP count, if it means a better low light sensor

Do not need 4K video!!
Give me 720p Super-Slow motion and I'll be happy, I guess it should be possible.
Even less rez, I wouldn't mind!

Nightmare, 23 May 2012Sh*t just got real!!!lol, copyright Martin Lawrence. :D
It would be good to see these being used in conjunction with Super High definition screens when they are fully R&D'd and proper Quad cores (probably on the second generation of quads) but this development will probably be some time away.
Meh, 1080p will have to do for the time being. *sigh*

To person below your right,if a quadcore chip @1.4GHz and Mali 400 cant preccess this camera sensor then what will..I mean if this is going into digicams as well can we expect fans/heatsinks in cameras to cool the chips on baord.What will happen is a companion proccessor will probably sit alonside the sensor chip just like on Nokia 808 PureView..

Holy crap. The Exynos 5450 might be able to run it.

What are you going to do with a 3840 x 2160 video at 30fps?
Even a 128GB version of a phone will lack space from a video of that caliber.

If they make good camera sensors they would make their own compact cameras.
Sony`s sensors are by far better.
1/2.3 immage sensor is still smaller than the nokias n8 and not miles near the Nokia`s 808 PureView.
Full hd with 60frames sounds nice.
Nice but nothing spectacular. :)

Is there anyone else aside from me who thinks that OmniVision is possibly Nokia's "secret" co-developer of the companion chip? :)

videos of this resolution will also require a lot of memory to store which is also a drawback

4K2K (3840 x 2160, four times the resolution of 1080p) video at 60fps.
I think this ^^ is not correct
1080P is 2K because its 1920 x 1080
where as 3840 x 2160 = 4K which means twice the resolution of 1080P and Yes to attain this we need four screens of 1080P
