"Lumia Black
Nokia has been very consistent with taking camera tech for future phones and applying them to devices already on the market. Case in point, new algorithms has been developed for the Lumia 1020 that will come when Lumia Black ships. The algorithms center on the oversampling magic that Nokia uses when making images from the 41 megapixels on the Lumia 1020. You’ll see improvements in how your Lumia 1020 handles tone mapping and noise filtering. These algorithms have basically been built from the ground up and Juha tells us your Lumia 1020 will feel like a new device when you get Lumia Black. He was most proud of how they’ve improved the noise results in the Lumia 1020. Your pictures will look much more natural."

Great news!
Tells you that they know they have a problem with noise/grain.. otherwise why bother with a brand new algorithm ? Hopefully its closer to the one on the 808.

Just a quick question for all 1020 users, I work for a major UK network and we have had a lot of 1020`s coming back to store for the smartphone freezing on the live tiles what makes this worse is that users can't power down the phone even using a hard reset combo the users then have to let the phones battery die. This has taken many hours for some and on rebooting the phone there is very bad screen burn which won't fade and is very clear when using the white theme. Has any other 1020 had this issue. ?
Had my 1020 for about 6 weeks now. Never frozen on the home screen but ive had a couple of occasions where the lock screen has frozen requiring a quick tap of the on/off button. I don't think ive seen a report of a frozen 1020 that has caused screen burn anywhere else. Very strange

^ At my store the return rate of the 1020 is 12% of all sales with 9% with the screen burn issue hope this isnt a major problem about to erupt and only effects a very small amount of handsets.

I hope so to , but ive just had a quick look around the WP forums and I cant find a mention of screen burn.
Like I said very strange.
It would be interesting to know the total sales at your store and then work out the actual number of handsets affected from the %ages .

Nokia is simply confirming what many had already noticed (I included) and the fanatics here insist on denying, ie, images of 1020 at full resolution and in mode pureview, whether captured by day or night, even in the smallest ISO have excessive noise and overly saturated colors, culminating in a result much lower than expected !
But surely this is a good news... A great start, who knows with this update, 1020 presents the same excellence in image 808 shows for over 1 year and a half !
P.S: Personally, I doubt... But I'll wait for the update to give a final opinion !

Yes its an AMOLED screen, although im not sure that would come into play after such a short time even if the phone froze up
