Its no mystery.. look at the EXIF.. these were processed in Aperture. Makes rme really doubt this persons credibility if they are posting processed images as "samples" from the black update.

Has anyone ever used this website Value Basket?? Shows UK based & Google shows up decent reviews. It has the 1020 @ £402 cheaper than many others

I looked at more 1520 photos today... it really seems like Nokia finally got the hang of the jpeg processing in Windows Phone.. it took a while, but they are back
Some of the pics really look like they were taken with a Symbian based phone, I am really looking forward to see what all of that does for the 1020. I expect really great results.

Wouldn't buy from them, unless it's really, very cheap, £402 still is serious money, imo.
They have their headquarter in Hongkong, so the phone might be from there, as they usually are cheaper. Asian phones have no warranty in Europe, which is why Valuebasket provide their own, but I'd prefer warranty from the manufacturer.

What amazes me with the 1020 is the depth of field. it appears very quickly even for a few meters away from the subject (less than one meter and more) while with most other phones we get the depth of field almost exclusively in macro. Therefore sometimes it produce some blurry areas in the photos but it's more an auto focus story. This is a bit confusing because sometimes people think get all of the scene sharp (in focus) but it is not always the case.
I also noticed when i using the infinite mode for a distant landscape the entire scene is in focus (it makes sense), with the auto focus on sometimes the same scene have a very slight blur on the top right of the photo. Apparently this is not always a hardware issue.
It would be nice to have a multi points auto focus option.
@ Bono, I ordered mine from valuebasket ... I don't have the charger EU plug! mine seems to be a austalian/new zealand model but works perfectly in Belgium. I had the pack 1020+ camera grip however i have ordered the phone only!

Nokia Lumia 1020 small review
Mind I compared lots of features to my actual phone, the Pureview 808.
Physical aspects:
*Very well built, sturdy and loved the grip in hand
*a little bit too big for my taste, prefer the Lumia 720 size better.
*Nice colours to choose from
*Very good loudspeaker placement and the sound quality from it.
*Wish it had a MicroSD memory slot
*Battery is not user replaceable and not really that big (2,000mah) which means it wont last a full day (when used on a 4G network). When I was taking pictures non stop, only lasted few hours (3-4 hours).
Operating System:
*I can only say bad things here: no multitask, no sound profiles, no rotation screenlock, no notifications. Bunch of other NO's.
*Sometimes is slow when switching apps.
*When in an app (example Iexplorer) pressing the back button doesnt take you back to the main menu, as it is understood as back in browser, sometimes there is nowhere to go back to and stays in a white screen
*No File manager or access to the file system. This means apps like whatsapp cannot access the videos and must be recorded within the app, which means lower bitrate.
*No USB OTG support
*No HDMI support (through MHL-USB)
*App support not on par of Android or iOS.
*Did I mention the Spinning wheels issue when performing a full reset?
Camera:
*Very good but nowhere near the 808 specially in daylight.
*Colours are a bit saturated.
*OIS is very useful
*Night shots are hit and miss: sometimes very good, sometimes blurred.
*Camera Pro app is slow (4 seconds between photos, even when set to 5MP only) and not too intuitive.
