The last thing we heard about the UK availability of the Nokia 808 PureView was that it would be available in the UK sometime next month, and now it would appear the device will be available slightly earlier than expected.
Amazon have now put the Nokia 808 PureView up for pre-order in the UK with a shipping date of the 30th of June 2012 and the handset will retail for £499.98 SIM free.
The Nokia 808 PureView runs Symbian Belle as its OS and features a 41 megapixel camera and a 4 inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 640 x 960 pixels.
Innovative Camera Technology
One of the standout features of the Nokia 808 PureView is its groundbreaking 41-megapixel camera. This camera is not just about the high megapixel count; it incorporates advanced imaging technology that allows for superior photo quality. The PureView technology uses pixel oversampling, which means it combines multiple pixels to create a single, super-detailed pixel. This results in incredibly sharp and clear images, even when zoomed in. The camera also supports full HD 1080p video recording, making it a versatile tool for both photography and videography enthusiasts.
Performance and Storage
Other specifications include a 1.3GHz single core processor, which, while not the most powerful by today’s standards, was quite capable at the time of its release. The device comes with 16GB of built-in storage, which should be sufficient for most users. However, for those who need more space, the Nokia 808 PureView also features a microSD card slot that can take up to 32GB cards. This expandable storage option ensures that users can store a large number of high-resolution photos and videos without running out of space.
The 4-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 640 x 960 pixels offers vibrant colors and deep blacks, making it ideal for viewing photos and videos. The display is also protected by Corning Gorilla Glass, which adds an extra layer of durability against scratches and minor impacts.
Nokia 808 PureView
In addition to its impressive camera and display, the Nokia 808 PureView includes several other features that enhance its usability. The device supports various connectivity options, including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and NFC, allowing for easy sharing of photos and videos. It also has a built-in GPS, which can be useful for geotagging photos or using navigation apps.
The phone’s design is sleek and ergonomic, with a slightly curved back that makes it comfortable to hold. The physical buttons are well-placed, and the user interface of Symbian Belle is intuitive and user-friendly. Although Symbian Belle is not as widely used as other operating systems like Android or iOS, it offers a smooth and responsive experience.
For those interested in purchasing the Nokia 808 PureView, you can find out more details over at Amazon. The device is available for pre-order with a shipping date of the 30th of June 2012 and will retail for £499.98 SIM free.
