Apple iPhone 5 review: Laws of attraction
Sony Xperia Z review: Zero hourNokia 808 PureView review: Photo Finnish
The Nokia 808 PureView is the best cameraphone ever made. End of story. Now, how do you proceed from there? And why is this particular phone so hard to write about? How about because a picture is worth a thousand words and we just had a...

all out WP is a big mistake! nokia should have MeeGo and Symbian live! symbian for low end (ditch the S40 dumbphones and make a real ASHA SMARTPHONES WITH SYMBIAN BELLE) and MeeGo for higher Mid Range to high end and flagship!! look at samsung, they are prepping their own OS coz they (i think) also realize that android is enjoying its spot right now and its not healthy for the competition!
i just hope Nokia will come to their senses and develop symbian and support MeeGo (even though jolla has them, nokia should buy them, i really found jolla's sailfish UI a bit of misleading and annoying (same goes with ubuntu i think only blackberry 10 get the swipe UI easily to understand), while the swipe UI of MeeGo N9 is innovative and simple, everyone can easily understand how MeeGo works...
so nokia, if you want to stay relevant, go for meego and symbian not WP and S40!

"Nokia 3220 (brick + cover) was the first NFC handset available commercially./Samsung SGH-D500E (Slider) was the first NFC-phone presented (CeBit 2005). Today the growth of near field communication technology is facilitated by the NFC Forum. Founded in 2004 by Sony, Nokia, and Philips, the NFC Forum creates the technical specifications that those developing NFC compatible devices and NFC tags must follow". Everyone can copypaste but please do it right at least.

The man said it like it is and the fact that he doesn't play games doesn't mean that they don't exist. See "User opinions and reviews" for game recommendations, they are talking about that right now.

I'm an owner of 808 with FP 2. I'm very satisfied with this phone. Before I intended to buy 4S or Note 2. 4S Camera disappointed me and Note 2 the usability too complex. I had N8 before. So 808 its a great Upgrade. Thanks Nokia!

Pity this great PureView technology, even if incorporated into WP 8 phones, will be kind of destroyed because of the lack of proper support from the Windows Phone operating system. And instead of a 41 MP sensor we will probably see something like a 21 MP.
Sticking to WP 8 ONLY was a big mistake. Compare for example Nokia N9 with Lumia 800 - the N9 is superior almost in every aspect, including camera features. The explanation is simple: Nokia could adjust MeeGo in N9 in-house, to their needs, they had access to the source code, they could do everything with it. Now they are Microsoft-dependent, that's what it is.
The workflow for Nokia is now like this:
Nokia has an idea --> Nokia has to KINDLY ask M$ to implement it --> M$ implements this or NOT (like for example they quite surely won't support 41MP cameras in their WP 8 - a feature that "outdated" Symbian does support) --> Nokia can or can't work further with the feature.
Compare this to having access to the source code like for example MeeGo or Android. WP8 = fail for Nokia.

@ GSMArena
Could you do a shootout amongst Nokia 808 Pureview, Apple iPhone 4S, Samsung Galaxy S 3, HTC One X, Sony Xperia S and a Canon DSLR.

The battery is to small - I hope Nokia puts something serious into their next PureView phone.
When will the manufacturers learn that users want good battery life? I don't care if the phone is 1,5 mm thinner, I prefer better battery life to it. But HTC, Samsung, Nokia - they won't learn.
