nokia 808 pureviewThe much awaited Symbian Belle OS based smartphone Nokia 808 is expected to be launched to day in India. Nokia 808 always remain in news because of its massive 41 megapixel camera lens. Nokia 808 uses something known as Pure View pro imaging technology which help it to overcome noise in the images.

Not only this Nokia 808 is powered by a 1.3 GHz ARM 11 processor which makes the editing of photos on the phone itself a breeze. It also contains a GPU chip which further enhances its imaging capabilities.

Nokia 808 is based on Symbian OS which can be one of the important point for its low sales. Many people consider Symbian as an out-dated  OS with mediocre application database. Irrespective of the fact that Nokia has updated its Symbian OS to latest and modern version by introducing several useful feature but still it is no where near Android or IOS.

There are rumours however that Nokia will use its Pure View pro imaging technology with their Lumia series phones also. Lumia series smartphones are powered by Windows 7.5 OS which is considered to be one of the top most rival to both IOS and Android OS. The combination of PureView + Windows can definitely help Nokia to regain its lost position in the field of smartphones. This combination has already been confirmed by one of the official of Nokia USA.

Some of the characteristics of its primary camera are given below:

  • It is a 41 MP camera lens with effective 38 MP which can shoot images with maximum resolution of 7152 X 5368
