            Please do a "Grand camera shootout: The latest and the classics" or something like that with all "unique" cameraphones; including the classic N82, the new but not perfect N86, the 12MP-phones Satio and Pixon12, the HD-recording phone Omnia HD as well as the upcoming Viewty Smart. This would crown the REAL camera king of ALL TIME, since those models mentioned above are undoubtly all best in their certain area, but neither of them have all the goodies... like wide lens, HD-recording, Xenon flash or 12MP.

While the N97 was a prototype, it managed to do pretty well... but in this specific test (don't remember where it was) it was focused on "wrong" objects. This might be the case this time as well. Wait for the full review.

                  Nokia's camera never gonna satisfy me :S

                  what the use of wide angel if it gonna bring blurry pictures :S
                  even the colors didn't give it right like what samsung's INNOV8 brought

                  in camera nothing like samsung,SE and even LG

                    Since this should really be great camera phone it fails big time. At least compared with innove8. Take a look at the sign to the underground garage on the first pic. You can't read it while innove8s pic cleary shows all the letters. And I'm not Nokia hater, I even own N79 but camera on Nokias are really crappy - Zeiss optics or not. And all plastic too. I wish review would just say as it is, too little too late.
                    Too bad for Nokia.

                      Interisting preview. The phone is near perfect. I wish there was an audio test. Gues we're gona have to wait til the next week.
                      I like the pictures. They look nice and colors appear natural. The innov8 seems to pump up the colors/add some wow factor to make them more visually appealing.
                      However, they both look lovely and im glad they dont have any yellow tint. I cant wait for next weeks review. Thanx GSMArena.

                        did anybody body realize that gsmarena always have bias review on NOkia.
                        when it comes to Sony ericsson, its always all good and mighty.

                            Another dull looking phone from Nokia. It's bulky, no touchscreen, QVGA resolution, old and dated looking UI, sreen is the old 2.8''. Camera is brilliant though.

                            But honestly, where are all the sleeky and shiny good looking touchscreen phones from Nokia? I've had enough, gonna go for Samsung or LG, they are releasing so cool stuff all the time.
