I made this quickly so pardon the minimalist graphic.



See the images above. Imagine that they are a group of blue, green and red pixel. The group with the pixels on top tier have some bad pixels/noises. What pureview do is select the best pixels in that group which matches their surroundings and replaces those bad pixels with good ones. So the noises is eliminated.

Itu apa yang gua paham la.

Well, this is what I understand from their explaination. This are on the pixel level. To make up an image, thousands of pixels will be crowded near each others and each group will be leveled to the best on in the group and when saved as 8 or 5 MP picture, the image will be very sharp, precise and minimal noise.

And its a very powerful chip judging from the video of photo snapping. To examine each and every pixel of the 41MP and amending the pixels yet only takes a second or so.

one think i like abt resistive screen is that i could use my finger to type. its a hell alot more accurate then using ur thumb...

well, N82, N86 , isn't a touchscreen phone

anyway , i think .. before N82 , Nokia released N80 

N70 isn't a phone that focus camera thingy..

I like N80 more than N73 ,

i have tried my uncle's phone[N80] before this , and it is amazing .. just that , N73 win in term of speaker
N80 --> N82 --> N86 --> N8 --> Nokia 808 [is '8' means lucky number for Nokia? , they use this number to represent phone that has best/good camera]
the '7 series in Nokia N series' is lower line

for example --> Nokia N70[also got ME version] , Nokia N71 , Nokia N72 ,  Nokia N73[also got ME version] , Nokia N75, Nokia N76 ,  Nokia N78 , Nokia N79

N70 , N73, N76, N79 are remarkable phones in 'N7 series' ,
the phones have great features

the '8 series in Nokia series' is medium line [I think its focus more into camera]

Nokia N80[also got Internet edition] , Nokia N81 , Nokia N82 , Nokia N85 , Nokia N86 , Nokia N8 , Nokia 808

Nokia N80 got great video camera [and also good camera] , Nokia N81 got good speaker and great slide phone , Nokia N82 got great camera , Nokia N85 is a good multimedia phone [successor for Nokia N81] and also good camera phone , Nokia N86 is a great Nokia camera phone , Nokia N8[nothing much to say :hehe] , Nokia 808 [mother of god]

the '9 series in Nokia N series' is high[premium] line

Nokia N90 - is a great multimedia smartphone by Nokia , it looks like videocam , but it isn't   ,
Nokia N91 - is one of the greatest phone that Nokia ever made [especially its 8GB version], great build quality , great speaker , great....
Nokia N92 - another variant of N90 , but still 
Nokia N93 - also got the N93i , it is a videocam , lol... great smartphone and great video camera,  successor for N90 , still remember the contest that organized by Nokia Malaysia , people recording videos just using this N93..
Nokia N95 - also got the 8GB version , it is one of the greatest phone by Nokia , flagship phone , that change boost Nokia , remember , N95 got many awards , people who want smartphone last time will go for this..
Nokia N96 - great multimedia phone , so many hype for this phone[TV , etc..] ..but then.. I guess Nokia N85 is better than this phone
Nokia N97 - qwerty keypad slide with touch screen 

This will definitely be my next upgrade..if not mistaken pureview dont have GPU like N8?

GSMArena: Tell us more about the companion chip in the camera. Is it a first for Nokia? Is it being done elsewhere?  D. Dinning: As far as I know, the way of doing it this way is unique to us. The companion chip takes the information directly from the sensor and scales it, before that data goes to the GPU. The GPU has less load because of this scaling chip. What that means in practice is that in video we are able to handle over one billion pixels per second.

we know there is a companion chip a long time ago liao..

but u need to consider as well when using that dedicated camera processing chip it will reduce the gpu load at the same time which "might" balance out the extra power usage... 

hmm.. nvr cross my mind coz its sort of doesn't make sense to me because  that would make the 808 have 2 GPU.. redundant to say the least. my initial impression have always been that damian mention the technology is unique to nokia because they develop it with their partners. so i naturally assume that the chip is part of that technology because nothing off the shelf GPU or not can handle 41MP

12:15am liao.. @_@ ppl start to name qualification liao on internet... i go sleep first.. u win...

the companion camera processor is "NOT" there to easier up the build in gpu but rather "OVERCOME" the build gpu limitation to processing those imaging data requirement... imagine who gonna just waste the resource if it able to be perform by already have hw... cost bro sure will increase and that would be the final "pain" that ANY company willing to sacrifice... 

believe me the 808 camera module is NOT a cheap thing that been implemented... so as i previously say although the pureview tech will get implemented across others platform but the 808 camera module would be LAST on it's kind... all the later will only have the pureview tech but "cheapo" camera module... so get the 808 NOW or NEVER!!! 

I'ts funny how you want a phone for sole camera purpose rather than a real camera and carry another phone around you.

what u mean by "4K video recording"?? 

umm, the 3x zoom IS digital zoom.

works from the full 41mp res, and a 5mp area is selected which is roughly 3x zoom.

41mp res = 7728 x 5368
divide that by 3 = 2384 x 1789 = 4.6mp
3x zoom is 5mp res = 3072 x 1728

so its roughly there.

ur statement basically said can save 41mp...
unless 34 = 41, or 38=41... 

umm i dont recall ever saying i need 41mp.

if it is imported from other region
the product code should be the one of the particular country where your 808 comes from
check the product code over navifirm should get you the answer
if it shows that it is Malaysia product code, then they are all liers
they just try to make up a story so that they can sell you higher price later

Please, those of you who has the 808, do a check on your product code see if tis true.

Most important is the warranty. Even region code is wrong as long as warranty by arista/avaxx and zitron will be alright. You are actually paying the extra for the warranty. So make sure check for the warranty card and warranty sticker.

The most most important make sure the warranty card IMEI and on your phone IMEI are identical.

wrong region code will start to cause problems when it comes to language. Does it have Chinese input built in?

not so sure but APAC usually have all 3 languages.  Most important 1st is the warranty then region code.

product code is unique
different country, different color, locked/unlocked version has their own unique product code
you wouldn't get it wrong

sales person in Nokis store use iphone & blackberry.... I asked them about how to set a full res mode they r struggling to find the setting, even 2 person also cannot find out the setting itself. At last i show them where is the setting.    

Bolehland memang boleh, hire salesperson does not have the passion for Nokia, they work for the sake of working. 

Btw this phone become my primary phone, leave MeeGo like for few week lol
