JOHNY LONG, 06 Dec 2013 Nokia lumia 1020 is better than 808 cause this ones camera is 38 mega pixels effective but no... more1- Nokia 808 PV has 1/1.2" FSI CMOS which is bigger than lumia 1020 1/1.5" BSI CMOS sensor.
2- Nokia 808 PV has ND filter and ISO 50 level to reduce the highlights, Lumia 1020 hasn't.
3- Nokia 808 PV has the biggest focal length ever (8.02 mm) which gives you the best depth of field more than Lumia 1020 (6.6 mm) only...Lumia still bigger than N8 (6.0 mm) and all other phones out there for sure.
4- Nokia 808 has bigger pixel size
-- 38-34 full resolution is 1.4 um like Xperia Z, IPhone 5, S3-4
-- 8 MP pureview mode is 3.07 um (very big for phone)
-- 5 MP pureview mode is 3.91 um (amazing for phone)
-- 2 MP pureview mode is 4.89 um (biggest pixel ever in any smartphone)
This big pixels gives you such pure and clear pictures...so when zooming 100% you will see zero noise (depending on zoom levels also till you reach the max zoom so you will get the real resolution)
5- Nokia 808 Pureview handles over 1 Billion pixel per second during 1080P video recording and that's 16x powerful than any phone ever (read the white paper)
6- Nokia 808 producing it's images at 300 dpi. (amazing for sure, N8 also)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now coming to lumia 1020...the best smartphone camera out there right now:
1- Lumia 1020 has smaller pixel size 1.12 um due to the smaller sensor size
2- Lumia 1020 producing images in 72 dpi only...another reason for making the pixel smaller than 808 pureview's one ( talked with Juha Alakarhu on twitter about pixel size and he told me that they simulated the 1.4 um but the results was worst than 1.12 um
3- Lumia 1020 has no ND filter.
4- Lumia 1020 has no ISO 50, it starts from 100 and this will results more noise and highlights in the pictures.
5- Juha Alakarhu didn't tell me about the pixel size of the oversampled 5 MP...he just told me that the physical pixel size is 1.12 um, but I think it will be around 2.75 um or something like that, but obvious it will be smaller than Nokia 808's one
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
But Lumia 1020 also has some advantages over it's older brother the 808 PV :
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1- Lumia 1020 have aperture F/ 2.2 bigger than 808 PV F/2.4, and bigger F-stop means bigger depth of field and better light catching
2- Lumia 1020 has the best OIS on any phone, it's the second generation and really it's impressive and awesome and very powerful and accurate more than Lumia 925-928-920
3- Lumia 1020 have Six lenses rather than 5 only for 808 pureview and 4 only for all the Lumias except Lumia 925 (which has six also)
4- Lumia 1020 has better oversampling algorithms so the 5 MP should sharper than 808 (but that doesn't mean better or more details)
5- Lumia has faster shutter speed till 1/16000 faster than 808 PV which has shutter speed around 1/ 5000 - 6000 and the pictures is almost totally dark.
6- Lumia 1020 has Rich audio recording and two mics. like 808 PV...808 is stronger cause it can do like 320 mb bitrate/s CD quality beside WP OS still has mono only for video recording...(read the white paper of 808)
7- Lumia has mechanical shutter like 808 PV and N8 and that's help the Xenon flash and fast mode photos.
So as you see both have amazing technology and Nokia only one can do that
but The final conclusion:
---------------------------------
-Nokia 808 is better in terms of clarity and pure photos with almost no noise...it has more zoom with 2MP PV mode up to 3.6 zoom so: day light photos, portraits, landscapes, night photos it will be more clear and producing more amount of details however it's not as sharp as Lumia 1020 due to it's 6 lenses and it's new algorithms.
- Lumia 1020 will be better in low light, indoors, night portraits and Night photos, cause of the awesome OIS 2nd generation which gives the Lumia 1020 extra points here, however it lacks very important option like ISO 50 level which help us alot as smartphone photographer to control the noise on the low light situations
(Nokia 808 pureview will be better in low light in terms of quality and clarity with details but it will need tripod, cause it will be very shaky at night and produce very shaked photos) but you know, not every one will carry or use tripod when going to club or taking quick night photos
- Lumia 1020 will be better also at videos cause they will be very sharp and stable due to OIS 2nd generation.
I hope that make it clear and gives you some nice information,
Ohh...btw I'm saving right now to pick up one hot yellow Lumia 1020 ;)
have a nice day...808 PV user and proud ;D

As for the camera. 808 has a way better sensor then 1020. software is better. The user app is weaker but that's about it;). Overall i give 10 to 808 9 to 1020.

Guys, any idea where can I buy this phone new but with decent price? I'm looking so hard to buy this phone but the price listed on ebay sellers are so ridiculous.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

kagaya, 30 Nov 2013Nokia will support the services by 2016Let's hope they keep their promise. The Store will still work (they need it for S40 too) but there will be no more new apps or updates to the old apps after January 1st 2014. You will still be able to buy them, but some might become outdated. But I know there will be other sources to get things from. :-)
