Nokia 808 Pureview First Impressions
by Volker Weber
I played with a white Nokia 808 Pureview at CeBIT. And I did not want to let it go. I shot a few dozen photos indoors and they were all pretty amazing. Incredible detail with no noticeable noise. Since most of my fellow colleagues were discussing their preoccupation with Symbian I had plenty of play time with the phone.
What the picture does not give away: this thing is quite top-heavy. Unlike the N8, which is balanced, the 808 is heavier at the lens hump. There is some serious hardware in that area. This phone will only appeal to people who know what they are getting, an incredible camera with a good smartphone attached.
Nokia Belle may be destined for the dustbin of technology, but it's certainly good enough now. I find it as usable as any Android device. I carry the N8 more often than before, and I am really looking forward to this stunner.

Apparently it has a 41MP sensor:
