Nokia (NYSE:NOK), for once, gets breathtakingly good news, as The Verge’s review of its 808 PureView phone was quite positive, as the publication calls the device’s camera, replete with a 41MP sensor, to be “astounding, breathtaking, stupefying”, adding that, “this phone’s image quality is so far ahead of the competition that it really has no competition.”. Otherwise… the analyst says that the 808 runs Symbian, and has a mediocre display. However the glowing review of the camera could stand it in good stead for upcoming Windows Phone (NASDAQ:MSFT) devices that are likely to contain PureView technology.
