no joke, at first i thought its a fake photoshop render! probably sammy's direct response to pureview or steve jobs bio or both...is it true that there are no official photo samples given to the press like during nokia pureview annoucement?
Added on August 30, 2012, 11:08 pmone thing very weird about nokia's 5 sep annoucement is that wp8 only release in nov, why annouce now??? are ppl going to wait until end of the year to get the phone like the bygone era?? What will happened to all the current lumia wp7 sales before nov, suicidal rite? doesn't make any business sense to me or am i missing anything, or are they going to release to select market like asia before microsoft's official wp8's launch?? Donno wat elop thinking? Really hope nokia got something else under their sleeve, sep 5 will be really interesting..
That's not a phone, it's a Galaxy
Camera. Plus, the sensor size is smaller than 808.
It's more like to compete with Nikon's very own Android camera, but they both launch around the same time, so it's more like planned for some time already.
As for Nokia's Sep 5... I wonder, probably want to announce PureView Lumia?
Else, for normal WP8. Let's be honest, will people choose a Samseng or Nokia? There will also be other choices...
The thing is, Nokia is NOT exclusive like Apple, where iOS is only available for Apple. You want iOS, you have to buy Apple products.
WP8? You can choices from different brand. Nokia focusing ONLY on WP8, is it a "smart" choice?

samsung just announced their wp8 phone.
so now instead of samsung vs apple, we're gonna see samsung vs nokia

Samseng basically have various products competing with others. Competition is good, IF the other manufacturer's are trying to compete by coming up with more competitive products, pricing, specs. BUT, if they resort to patents war like "rounded corners", "shapes", etc.........
Phone back then have "antenna" on the outside, non-color screen, monophonic ringtones, etc. So, the first phone company who invent or come up with new ideas, should banned the rest from using the "idea" and technology? Please..... moreover, rounded corners and shape is not technology.... People can get custom icons through themes, and so on, so... why don't Apple go and sue those "themes" maker? Sorry, it's just utter-ridiculous.
If they're talking about real technology that is unique, then it's different story. Plus, giving something a new name doesn't make it an innovation or new idea/technology, e.g. "FaceTime", and so on; it's not new innovation or something that's new, but they're good at "re-branding" or "marketing".
