Nokia should really consider putting these camera module in one of their future WP7 handsets.

Yes future Windows phones with this would be nice but just think the killing Nokia would make if this was on an Android phone?? As for the 640x360 I had no issue with it on the N8 seemed ok to me but larger the screen not so good. I too don't like the keyboard on the Belle either but the system is much better than years ago

Still thinking they will jump to Android? WP is their alternative OS now.

I know they won't go Android but if they did a camera like this on an Android phone Nokia would be selling like Samsung.

Is anyone going to buy a phone as thick as this though? Doubt it
IMO keeping phones thin whilst keeping high MP and decent EQ would be more practical.

I think thickness of a phone specifically around the cam part will never be a deal breaker if it produces awesomeness.

The 808 is not meant to sell in dozen of millions!!

This device is just the bridge to introduce the new technology Nokia have been working on for the past five years!
And it's just the beginning.

This technology is eventually meant to live on Nokia's current mainstream smartphone line-up: Lumia.
It will be ported to Lumia at most by next MWC. They could manage it earlier for a Q4 release this year, along with Apollo. But I doubt it.

The big news here is PureView. Not the the Nokia 808.
And the big question right now is where PureView really sits and what impact could it have on the world of compact digital photography as a whole not just smartphones! And what's coming next.. How far could this get and in what form and functionality.

Meanwhile, we are all excited, as a start, to see how this 808 compare to current compact cameras!!

Here are some sample images of the 808:
Nokia 808 PureView Samples - a set on Flickr

Three shots at full 38MP resolutions with respective 100% crops..
And two shots using PureView at 5MP.. With a 100% crop of one of them.

Here are 100% crops of the first PureView image linked above, originally at 5MP:









Zero Noise levels! Perfect detail!!
This is truly a breakthrough!
