yes it's forty one megapixel

The Sensor is 41MP.
The image resolution depends on what format you take:
In full resolution:
4:3 format = 38MP
16:9 = 34MP

PureView technology (this technology provides OVERSAMPLING by utilizing the high megapixel to create a smaller resolution photo) as below:
8MP
5M
2MP

With PureView technology, you get LOSSES zoom (it's like OPTICAL zoom) up to 3X, and you also get fixed maximum aperture (means more light) compared to conventional digital camera.

Actually, I've provided detailed explanation on this, you can read more from GSMArena's interview with Damian Dining and also from the White Paper.

I think SIFU HENG should add those information into the front page?
Then we can just ask people to read from the front page.

someone can compile the butthurt/bashing question gonna ask for 808 and answer for it?

eg:
Q: why 41mp?
A: because we can.

Q:why no juice up the monster 
A: cos we don't need them to run Symbian smoothly /troll

it will be, according to Damian Dinning, they are still working on optimization like better image stabilization, reduce noise while retain more details at night shot etc. Generally, this will overpower many higher end P&S as well..

if iphone is waterproof, then there is no reason nokia phone is not waterproof.

and what the hell is XPS? never heard camera related with XPS... i only know DELL got series called XPS.

still wan't waterproof... of coz no waterproof...

bulletproof only 

xperia s?compare to n8 only.808 at different level d

yup,a lot of hd games produced by gameloft available in ovi store for download.

thank god it doesnt run windows...

No point running windows; One needs to differentiate between "wants" and "needs" and also under each OS first before suggesting.
Windows Phone OS is a big nono with it's current limitations and restrictions.

It's good that they went with Symbian, all the previous Nokia high end Camera smartphone were running Symbian, especially the N8; Most of them will not be happy with the switch to Windows Phone and being restricted and limited to what they can do before and also the lack of capabilities of the OS and apps.

Often, people see and want latest and new things. New is not always good, especially in this context. You can see how many Symbian users are not happy with Windows Phone after they switch. It was supposed to be an upgrade, but instead they felt it was a downgrade because Windows Phone is nothing like a mobile version of Windows. It's more like a version of Zune player OS, just like how Apple used iPod Touch and made it into iPhone. Hence, why the restrictions, limitations and reliance on media transfer software like iTunes/Zune. But, that's not important to many general users that don't bother about these, as want they want is mainly the apps/games.

Has anyone seen this? Uploaded since end of Feb 2012

available ,

Sabah ? I don't know , maybe will got it but later..

try to go to nearest Nokia Store .. maybe at Centre Point there

Had 5 mins of play time at Curve earlier. too bad I am a tall guy and the short security strap was hindering me lol.

Anyway, first impression was good for the cam. Responsive, great quality and colour balance. Not so sure about the lossless zoom though.
