    Has anyone seen my Nokia Lumia 920

      Anonymous, 10 Nov 2022I do not know about r7, but r6 does better than iphone and ... moreI doubt that. I have seen comparisons on YT, and nah, it is below the likes of Samsung or Apple to be honest. Do not get me wrong, that 1 inch sensor is great, everybody says that, but they are ruining things with their software.

        Wow, this is a design I've always wanted to see. It's so much more refreshing than even the Nothing phone.

I am saying this because they made 2 phones with only one camera(I am not counting the depth one), and maybe they have more experience on how to implement a zoom lens too. If they will make this, the Leica Leitz phone 3 will also have a zoom camera, and with some Leica things they could make a much better phone, and maybe Leica will go global.

                          What a letdown, the camera setup is the same as before, which has nothing but a respectable if too wide main. It needs at least a 50 equiv. with the same sensor to function as a proper setup.

                            I'm interested.

It seems the Japanese wants to spend a fortune for a mediocre camera quality(because although the hardware is capable, their software is NOT!). I love Japanese products, I love Sharp and Fujitsu, but they are making the same mistake over and over again.

                                  wow the phone is wider in width this is the phone im looking for..but no way to buy it :(
