There will be no EOS, at least not one that should also be a phone.
Why Nokia 808 had to use Symbian...
That's just so much BS. The kernel and hardware limitations on WP are right for now, but rest of that is just so much BS that it hurts my head. Nokia is also heading back to making specialized devices next to flagship. Like N82 or N91 were at their time.

1. These multicore SoC's keep going down in size and use less and less battery. Worst time of battery life is not now with the multicore CPU's, it was back in GS, iPhone 4, N900 etc time with their single core CPU's build on 45nm tech, with Lumia 920 example using 28nm build and we are only going smaller in scale. Screen is anyways part of the device that uses BY FAR most of the battery. So not really sure what this even has to do with 41MP PureView.
2. Above.
3. What does this have to do with 41MP pureview?
4. Yes as we go down in SoC sizes the temperature goes up, but you can with clever design get over it. Again... what does this have to do with PureView? There are phones with much more powerful SoC's than Lumia 920 used in phones already.
5. PureView is likely way cheaper now to manufacture than it was on 808 PureView. Nokia has INVESTED on PureView for 5 years, it would be wasting that investment now if it didn't use it. With 808 PureView Nokia needed separate GPU inside the camera sensor, simply because no SoC in the world was able to support 41MP sensor back then. Nokia had to design new SoC and separate GPU with its partner just for the device.
Now Nokia can just put Qualcomm 600 or 800 SoC inside the phone that supports up to 50MP cameras and Super HD videos without designing anything new or adding separate GPU as a buffer. Same SoC is already found from HTC One and likely many other new devices.
I'm a Nokia and Symbian fan that owns 808 PV, N9, Lumia 800 and Lumia 920, but the BS is a bit too strong with this one.
