    AnonD-156746, 13 Jul 2013you dont know anything about 808pv..this phone creates grea... more@Hobbit, Read the whole review and See for Your selves before you comment. This Phone is defnitely a Macho piece when you Compare with Samsung/Sony/HTC's Mobile Camera devices. The N1020, when compared with its Predecessor N808. It truly Lacks Image Quality(In the Daylight).Just Test the Images of the N1020 and N808.

    I have thoroughly checked the High Resolution Images of the N1020 with the N808. Even in the daylight,The N1020 picks up noticeable Noise in the High resolution Images when you Zoom in to the max. Where as in N808, Even at the Maximum Zoom, The image quality looks Way better than N1020 and is very Sharp.

    With its F2.2 and BIS, The N1020's Low Light Image Quality is only better than N808. The review itselves says Nokia has decided to make the Lumia 1020 camera sensor smaller than the one in the 808 PureView. It's 1/1.5" instead of 1/1.2" and this means it has somewhat smaller pixels - 1.12 microns instead of 1.4 microns.

    If this phone is just meant for Producing High Quality Images and targeted at Amateur Photographers, My selves being a Professional Photographer,Here is my Verdict:

    The Design and the features are Quite Impressive in the N1020. But however when it comes to the Image Quality Comparing with the N808. "Thumbs down".

      Windows Phone 8 is a light OS so it doesn't need a very fast processor like the Exynos 5 Octa. Dual core CPU is enough for Windows Phone, instead of Android, which needs at least 4 cores to run smooth along with a 2 GB of RAM

        Kk, 13 Jul 2013Camera may b 41 mp but observe it's processor.. Only dual ... moreQuad Cores and Octe Cores count for Androids that no matter how many cores you add, it is still hungry for more. Android phones need high end hardware to give average user experience. Windows Phones and iOS for that matter can deliver much better user experience in a reasonable hardware package.
        I have used Android and Windows Phone and trust me, WP is way better by all means. It does not go too hard on battery and never causes any over heating problems. Android uses all that horse power just to do basic things like Photos, email, messaging and Phone calls. May be that is why Androids suck at battery life.

            1 solid day with low use. But with moderate to high usage, it would be lucky if it last half a day.

                      This is a peice of art. It looks very nice to me. Yes we expected better specs but it is not the fault of Nokia, Windows phone 8 doesn`t support quad cores for CPU nor GPU. but Microsoft promesed they will fix that before the end of the year. Anyway the specs is ok and there is the greatest camera. I wish I could afford this phone.

                        Best Phone, I can't wait to have this phone in my hands.

                            Dont look at this as just alot of megapixels it not how many mega pixels that makes this camera great its how the use those pixels to create a loss-less zoom and great low light photos. They use what they call oversampling which creates a 5 megapixel image using 5 millions superpixels which are created by combining the information and detail from 7 pixels of the 41 megapixels that are captured by the phone. You can digitally zoom in 4x and have no loss in quality of the image.That is why you need a 41 megapixel sensor.

                                        nice camera,but as a smartphone it might missed the prestige & status of entry level lumia 520.
