actually is 38MP

sifu sensor is 41MP but you are only able to capture in 38MP in 4:3 and 16:9 34MP due to the circular sensor.

When using pureview mode you will utlized the 41MP for oversampling


so conclusion the sensor is 41MP not 38MP.

If you do further research its not actually 41MP but more because each pixel is 1.75 in size.

the pixels in the 808 are 1.4 microns only. 1.75 microns are the pixels on the N8 if I m not mistaken. And the 41MP is the total sensor size, but not all the pixels are used at the same time, so the max you can use at a time is 38MP.

sorry correction yea 1.4 but still calculate still more. Sifu nvm you go read the white paper then you do the math of the loseless zoom oversampling you will understand what i mean of 41MP. There is a math on how to calculate the oversampling pixels.

please do spoonfeed me. My math is bad.

sigh so far ..

hows the phone ?

i find it the OS symbian not so good lolz

but the camera damn cun

and its like N82 but a bit bigger

dunno wanna buy this phone or not cause the OS i don't like

kinda like lumia 900 much better ..

Sigh i want the tripod attach ..

symbian is good enough an OS. In fact I would place it above WP7, due to the ability to customise with CFWs

I do agree with bro aspire. getting a Nokia 808 is just if you need to know a world of "mobile" photography. For OS cannot said so much due still using old platform. but its fine for me because symbian also not bad IMO. plus with custom firmware and custom modification (should be coming soon), you will be amazed!

but still the apps not very satisfying .. kinda more like IOS lolz .. but the camera i test very terang

Because Nokia 808 preview is more camera + phone rather than most assume is phone + camera.

undoubtedly apps for iOS is better and has many choice...,

if OS is your main concern then better don't buy it.
to be honest if i don't own another proper OS phone (at least for me), galaxy nexus, i won't buy this phone.

i bought this phone as substitute to my camera and also as a second phone.

LOL.. so you mean.. Symbian is unproper OS ???

not improper, but outdated. last nokia phone i owned is nokia 5800xm

Anyone from east coast(Kelantan,Terengganu n Pahang)already have Nokia 808 in hand.
Am looking foward in Kota Bharu or Kuala Terengganu.

"not unproper but outdated ..?" may I know in which/what way ?

For me, in term of apps - developers seems have lose interests to make Symbian apps anymore..


but in other aspects... it is still okay..

i don't have to justify myself, it's just my opinion.

Apps is apps.
OS is OS.

iOS is more of a media OS; it's primary advantage is the apps availability.

OS wise, for people who are looking for a true smartphone OS, iOS and WP doesn't live up to it as they're very restricted, full of limitations, etc. It's more of a media OS (e.g. iPod and Zune). Windows Phone has moved away from Windows Mobile, it's turned into a Zune Player (a media player like iPod Touch) based OS.
BUT, most people don't really care or need a true smartphone OS, all they care about is apps apps apps, and there is less lag and smoothness.

Android is proper alternative for Symbian owners as it's a proper smartphone OS. Symbian is one too, just that it's lacking apps. In fact, Symbian has better contacts management, proper 3G video calls, etc. In terms of smartPHONE OS, it's still a better one, IMHO. Plus, the homescreen is better as it support LANDSCAPE and PORTRAIT mode.

It needs to work on the notifications system, better integration (should learn from their Maemo/MeeGo OS), and most importantly, apps.
Oh and the display resolution and hardware support.

Added on June 9, 2012, 11:56 pmI'm impressed with the camera smoothness and performance, the quick Auto-Focus, the smoothness of the zoom, it's not like conventional zoom with juddering feel, it's just smooooth.

I watch the video was surprise, then I tried it a Nokia Store, WOW, really smooth camera.
