Nokia has finally launched the 808 PureView in India, giving it an MOP of Rs. 33,899. The new 41MP camera phone will supposedly be available on shelves from today itself, starting with Nokia Priority stores.

Hmmm... Finally. But it feels overpriced.

Am not getting the point, people would spend 33k just for a good camera?
Personally given the option, I would rather go with a decent ultra-zoom & a midrange smartphone.

Overpriced yes. By about 5,000 I would say.

For someone looking for just a phone with excellent camera, superb music then this is it.
On the other hand, those looking to install hundreds of applications and interested in customising the OS etc should look elsewhere.

And for all those recommending digital cameras / SLRs, please understand that the best camera for any situation is the one you have in your hand and a mobile is the one which is always with you.

I have a Nokia 6220 Classic with 5MP Carl Zeiss AutoFocus optics backed by xenon flash and I know the importance of one. I have seen the Nokia N8 and am really longing for this 808.

I cannot understand how can they stuff 41MPs into such a tiny cam.

Technology is evolving towards miniaturisation. Further there is 5 years worth of R&D behind this as per Nokia claim.

Generally reviewers on the internet are happy with the camera results. It is the supporting hardware/software that disappoints them though :(

It is the first phone with optical zoom I think.
And guys its a 41MP sensor, in actual its not a 41MP camera.It can shoot upto 41MP.
In a month it will be available for 25k I guess after all 33k is the MRP of the handset, that happens with almost with every phone of Nokia

Wrong, it shoots max of 38 MP.


How is it Useless? Please explain?

Not worth the cost

IMO, Price of 30k was sweet.

camera is great. Should be priced around 25k

Not going to happen but wait for 2 months, maybe a price drop :) Nokia phones always have a price drop sooner than most Mobile manufacturers. :wink:

Not bad actually. In non low-light conditions, this cam at 5mp actually performs similar to older generation entry-level SLRs.

Actually, it shoots 8MP and 5MP noiseless pics!

U cant carry a SLR everytime and thats where phone cam comes handy and 808 can click perfect pictures under any conditions. check out the reviews of the camera,it looks really promising.
yaa..agreed that its a bit overpriced. probably it will come down in few months as other nokia phones did..
