As you say in the video, the hope is that we'll see it on a Windows Phone. What do you guys think the odds are that we'll see that this year? I'd put them at 50/50, but it'd be a shame if Christmas came around and there was no super-duper Nokia phone out there.

How about a slightly larger PureView photo from Capetown.

No, it's a Nokia 808 Symbian with PureView Se1fcr3ation.

I've actually been wondering when someone was going to do something like this for a while. Making the sensor has been possible for years, and the rest is just a matter of making it possible for a general mobile CPU/GPU to work on all that sensor data without having the need of an expensive dedicated image processor.

It would be fun to give it a shot to see how it works in practice.

but wait is that 41Mpix camera coming to WP or is this just off topic?

 

[TheWeeBear]

It's not really WP related, but would be rather fun if it pops up in a WP later down the line.

Man, I can't wait until Apollo is out.

I don't care if Nokia brings 41 mpx to their high end Apollo handset. But I do want the same tech in there. Also with their sound recording. Wow.

If Nokia's follow up to the Lumia 900 has just a 16 mpx camera with the same type of technology I'd be happy.

Not sure if the huge lens would bug me or not. Though I imagine I could live with it.

Oh my Lord.

Grrrrrr I can't take MWC anymore, I'm so angry and sad =(. Why did Nokia did that to us? I guess I'll wait for Apollo .

What do you mean?

Nokia already promised one last Symbian device. This is their last hurrah for those customers.

Right now, WP7.5 doesn't allow Nokia the ability to add these kinds of special hardware features. And they probably think that Apollo is too far off to hype anything about it yet. So this wasn't something that Nokia did to us. It's just something they did FOR their current and loyal Symbian customers.

Remember that not too long ago, Elop stated that Nokia wasn't going to be announcing phones until they were close to release.

The competition out there is fierce. And they, along with MS, are likely keeping things close to the vest for now.

 

[Winterfang]

Last year phones like the Samsung S, where shown at MWC at least for a little bit. Where are Windows Phone news? I don't think Apollo is even real now.

Exactly.

This is coming to Apollo, Harlow made it clear on the announcement saying this will come to other platforms. This is technology Nokia has been working for 5 years, they are not going throw it away after one Symbian phone.

It's a technology and brand that will come to Apollo when the hardware allows it. Without doubt it's part of the Apollo thing we heard about OEM's being able to change quite a bit on the camera department.

I really wish it would be on a WP, but I am sure it will down the road.For now, I am going to get it. I am pretty use to Symbian^3 from my N8.
