Sensor size is mentioned in the specs. Read again before you say something. If you don't like this phone and prefer the DSLR's, then buy the DSLR and don't buy this phone. No one is forcing you. You have a free will to buy what you think is better.
What is important is the customer satisfaction and the after sales service of a product. I'm very satisfied with this phone and the after sales service is better than I thought.
By the way, where have you been all these years? Seems like you are stuck in the 1990's when camera sensor sizes are bigger than today.
Wake up, dude!

nokia 808 is the last symbian device and bellefp.2 is last update for symbian devices. nokia announced to discontinue by saying symbian is not a capable os and picked up wp os. lets compare capabilities of wp8 and symbian.
1) connectivity and sharing- wp8 supports wifi with dlna, hotspot, bluetooth- onty supports steareo/mono headset/ speaker but no file transfer. nfc, wp8 web based sharing like facebook, flikr, twitter and more. wp8 supports cloud based sharing like sky drive.
symbian supports all the sharing option what wp8 has with bluetooth file / data transfer , fm- transmitter, ptt(push to talk),hdmi/tv- output,usb on the go.
connectivity round goes to symbian.
2)Interface - symbian has fully customisable ui with multiple home screens, widgets, shortcuts, themes esjetc, while wp8 has very easy all in one place live tile ui with a little customisation.
its a tie because it comes to only personel preference.
3)multitasking- wp8 supppts limited multitasking with capability to run only 8 apps in background on the other hand symbian has best mutitasking capabilities even better than android.
thus multitasking gives another win for symbian.
4) web browser and ui smoothness- wp8 has one of the best browsers on mobile market but lacks some features like flash, and also dindnt have inbuilt downloaoder. wp8 has smoothest ui on mobile market with no lag. but web browser on symbian is just ok but has some good features like flash lite4, and inbuilt diwnloader. in terms of ui symbian is smooth but not as smooth as wp8.
so here the first win for wp8.
5)multimedia and camera- wp8 has zune which looks great but lacks features as music and video has to converter via zune and in camera nokia is giving some huge camera uplift for wp8 but the os lacks here as well has very limited upto 20 mp support. but symbian suppots almost every audio / video format directly upto 1080p. in camera symbian is best and nokia 808 pureviews shows all i want to say.
so another win for symbian.
here the winner is syyyyyyyyymbian.

AnonD-27390, 15 Oct 2012who has the best picture n8 or Nokia 808 , i see some site set n8 as better than Nokia 808 in ... moreMate it is only up to you whether you are satisfied with the N8 or you want to step further at 808. I am not sure N8 can produce better pictures than 808 because at least 2 reasons, like smaller image sensor and older concept. N8 is still better in terms of still images than any competitor out there but 808 IMHO it is superior to N8 in both still and motion pictures. 808 it is better than N8 also in terms of hardware which doubled in CPU power as well as in RAM memory. The fact that one is made in Finland and the other in China is irrelevant since most phones are made in elsewhere than their own countries.

I also has N8, and Im in the same doubt of you.
I think 808 take MUCH better pictures than N8, has better audio output, and has the best audio recording of the market.
The screen is a bit bigger and the symbian run faster on 808.
Im a bit worried in taking an android phone and get regretted.

Perfect is though that you can easily swap the battery on the road when needed.

i updated my 808 to FP2 today, one thing i noticed that when i record video with video stabilization ON in any mode (1080p or 720p or 360p) while zooming thru volume key its zooming frame by frame and it's clearly visible and when i turned OFF the video stabilization OFF its better and the zooming looks better, i didn't noticed this before the FP2 update, is this normal in 808, any one experienced this kind of issue while zooming slowly thru volume keys
please anyone clarify my query.

I need to press capture button & hold it by hover to the earth until it focused well, then moving camera to the lemon fruit with very same distance & release the capture button and here it is, perfectly shot. :) a bit tricky but its finally proved possible.
* actually its not pepper fruit like im mentioning earlier, its is lemon fruit lol.. :p
