Nokia 808 PureView Sim Free Mobile Phone - Black

Nokia announced today that the 808 PureView is available for pre-order from Amazon UK and will be shipping at the end of June.
The highlight of the new 808 PureView is the camera – a 41-megapixel sensor with PureView imaging technology. The key features of this camera are ‘pixel oversampling' and its lossless zoom capability for still imaging and video. For stills, the camera will zoom up to 3x.

The camera will record video in full HD at 30 frames per second. The lossless zoom feature for video is slightly different. When recording in 1080p, it is capable of 4x zoom, but 6x zoom at 720p and 12x zoom at 360p.
The 808 PureView's lossless zoom is something completely different from conventional digital zoom. Rather than zooming to the frame size you want, the PureView's zoom maximizes when the output resolution equals the input resolution.

This means that when the area of the sensor reaches a pixel resolution that is the same as the mexapixel setting on the phone, the lens stops zooming, and the final image has no loss in quality.
As for the phone itself, it comes in weighing 169g and sizes up at 123.9x60.2x13.9 mm. The PureView's rather massive camera, however, does add some additional bulk (17.95mm) at the business end.
The display is a 4-inches with a resolution of 640x360 pixels and a 16:9 aspect ratio.
The 808 PureView comes with 16 GB of internal storage and supports up to 48GB on a microSD memory card.The Nokia 808 PureView is available at Amazon

In addition to the camera, the phone features a 1.3GHz single-core ARM11 chip. The PureView is currently known to run Nokia's soon to be defunct Symbian OS, but a job post discovered earlier this year hinted at the possibility of the PureView coming to Windows Phone.
