808 camera can't be compared to SG3 camera. People in photography industry wont even write articles about SG3 camera.

SG3 camera wont even come close to N8 camera in QUALITY.

front camera?????? you just use it to take photos where you can see yourself more often than not.

      AnonD-11222, 13 Jun 2012actually you will not notice it you will see pixelation onl... moreAre you kidding?
      Of course there are a lot of difference i bet you never own a HD monitor before.
      Then why people buy Blu-ray movies? to look too close or for reading texts! Nokia fans are so desperate to make 808 looks as a new technology but it doesn't!
      Here a sample for a picture on HD vs non HD
      http://www.superchannel.ca/templates/images/hd101_compare.jpg
      Also 808 is much worse than the one in example because it's nHD 640X360 which is worse than the standard one 800X480!
      So you can have a big pixelated images but you can't see them on your phone!

      Plus Symbian is dead and no one wants to deal with Zombies anymore
      Here are links for that:
      -Nokia will disconnect Symbian in 2016
      http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_to_continue_support_for_symbian_at_least_till_2016-news-2695.php
      -Symbian Carla is no more!
      http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_cancels_symbian_carla_according_to_nokia_official-news-4287.php

      So why would anybody buy this phone if developers will or they are already stopped making any apps or games for this platform and most of new decent games/Apps are not released on Symbian nor WP!

      Here are some points why S3 Cameras are better than Pureview:
      1-S3 has Burst Mode, 808 NO!
      2-S3 has Front HD camera, 808 NO!
      3-S3 has 2MP front while 808 is just old VGA one!
      4-S3 has Simultaneous HD video and image recording, 808 NO!
      5-S3 has zero lag shutter camera, 808 100% lag shutter!
      Of course S3 blows 808 in every other aspect

      The only thing 808 is better in is bigger MP which will make your image at least 25 MB and no guarantee for quality since MP doesn't make images better. Sensor+Lens are responsible for that!

      Nokia only showed images taken in bright light to convince people to be great, Any camera in bright light will give great quality WE NEED samples in dark or low light Nokia!

                all the people that are thinking of buying sg3 should buy 808 and a galaxy y for that money. That way they're gonna get both.... Android + 41mp camera too... Lol....
                Anyway, jokes apart... 808 is a real value for money mobile.

                    nokia is nokia....nothing can be compared with it....in its quality design.....symbian still can run super smooth on a 600 mhz processor...but android supers lags on even 1ghz processor ....I have a xperia neo v...it lags too much...but its good with dual cores...but still some problems....I hope gs3 will be a perfect android smartphone...but I love Nokia. from my Heart...that's it!And nokia Is the Mother of smartphone Innovations....

                        I just want to express my opinion. Symbian OS lacks supports from many apps compared to Android and iOS. My sister had a Symbian phone and even she said it was s**t and told me that she prefered Android. I personally think that if they had to make a phone that had a 41MP camera, at least implement it on a phone that many people will probably buy...

                          I'm using n8 and bored to death. Symbian is the only Con about this particular device(808).

                            I don't wish to see Nokia go down as a company.
                            A little competition is good.

                            On the other hand for competition you'll need something that CAN actually compete with your competitors; both price- and specs wise.
