Hi Jeetu,
I have upgraded to the Lumia 1020 from the PV 808 and I like you have been a big Nokia fan for a long time but would advise to read ever paper online in regards to the Lumia 1020 and WP8 as even very simple thing you would have taken for granted on the 808 can be a issue on the 1020 I.e moving files from PC to mobile and editing, no file explorer, poor battery life, camera is NOT as good as the PV and I don't care what anyone has to say, very limited apps, 1020 take far too long to take a snap from locked screen when camera button is held down, no voice control without network connection, Maps and navigation is a toy compared to Ovi Maps and be warned when syncing poi, NO usb OTG plus the 808 can handle 64gig SD card and has interchangeable battery and that's just off the top of my head.
I have had my 1020 for three weeks now and can't tell you of a single advantage to upgrade from PV 808 to the Lumia 1020 so think long and hard mate.
I have had the 808 prior to upgrading to the 1020. After 1000 pictures taken with the 1020, I have not missed my 808 a single bit. Not the camera, not the OS. Not once have I thought "gee if only I had the 808 I would get a better image". No, the 1020 is actually a far better camera for me.
Here is how I would summarize it:
1. Daylight images: 1020 = 808 (roughly equal)
2. Macro: 1020 >> 808
3. Lowlight images: 1020 >>>> 808
4. Video: 1020 >>>>>> 808
It's not even close.
