I use my dSLR with Tamron 70-300 VC mainly for plane spotting so I have no specialized portrait/ landscape lens besides kit 18-55 lens. In such role Nokia 808 beat my entry-level camera with kit lens with ease. I'am also in a Nokia 808 group on FB- you can take part if you want :)

The phone is in mint condition. I have tried using and tweaking the camera setting since early Jan 2017. The result of printing a 8RW photo @ 5mp is absolutely worry free. Color crisp and no pixel burst. The pureview result is stunning. One shall try creative mode if u r using indoor. I had used ISO 800, vivid, contrast 1 n 2, flash off, room condition day time with lights being lit up. Perfect result achieved. Will definitely keep the phone in many years to come. I have an 8R photo shot with Nikon compact camera by uncle. Quality? Unmatched... Grab one if u have a chance.

            Swell camera - I've used it for professional Web work. (Lightroom haze filter is marvelous for clearing up the 808 camera's flare.) A strange thing: no matter what provider's SIM card I use, the 808 always checks voicemail at start-up then asks if I want to listen or exit. If I choose Listen, it tries to call *86 and then says "The number you have dialed is not in service." Do other 808 users experience this? Is it a "feature" of the Alcatel (Mexico) provider that originally sold the phone? Should I install the open source Symbian?

                Nokia will be back soon folks. Finally a worthful succesor to my 808PV since I'am sick with HTC M8 already.

Video camera zoom is still just wow! Its also great for navigation in woods and other really fancy stuff, like radio transmitter. You have also offline navigation with offline maps (not new version, but still viable). Phone stays on, like forever, in nowadays standard & with moderate use! It is superb camera, phone, music player (without spotify), navigator, hotspot etc. etc. but not for user who likes to surf web or hang on in social media, for sure.

                        DragonFire User, 12 Dec 2016How can I buy this mobile in India? Please helpIts available on ebay.in, if not try checking eaby.in once in a week.
                        just make sure seller has decent feedback.
                        Also there is chance of getting US charger as most of them are imported.

                          Man it has best flash for mobiles. ( No mobile except N82 has such bright flash)

                          the camera takes very good night shots actually but you do need to use the settings for best results eg adjusting the iso etc, when to use the flash and when not to.

                                  Definitely yes, It's the best camera phone ever, but don't rely on using it as a smartphone, just multimedia device and calls / WhatsApp

                                  I really miss this forum so much, missing the old days :')

                                    oh really.?

                                    if you have really compared then you could have understood.
                                    Compare them side by side with zooming.
                                    Recent reports proves that recent google pixel is not able to beat 808 in camera.
                                    And samsung dont have great camera pixel.
