Nokia Lumia 1020

Well the difference between Compact Cameras and Camera Phones is really getting smaller.

Hands-on with the Nokia Lumia 1020: Connect

I might actually pick this one up as I'm due for a AT&T upgrade.

Some people complain about the OS, Personally I dont give a damn as long as it takes decent images and can make phone calls.

I'm not App obsessed. (currently on a BlackBerry)

Could be a fun gadget.

Windows 8 Mobile OS with 1280x720 4.5" display is light years better than Symbian OS with 640x360 4" display that is on the Nokia 808.

Windows Phone 8 is not bad at all.

What I find Interesting (From a photog's view) what are the other big brands going to do?

Samsungs Galaxy S4 is still very new and has a great 13mp camera but will fall short to the N1020 as a photo tool.

The HTC ONE is pretty much the same deal as the S4 except they went with 4mp "Ultrapixels". Again does not seem it will compare well to the N1020

Sony new flagship Device, the Xperia Z has not gotten a warm welcome either from a photography standpoint, Surprising considering Sony's prowess as a Camera manufacturer.
Rumors abound that Sony has a Camera Phone in the works with a larger Sensor in it than ever seen, But yeah...Rumors...Most likely Angry Android Fans having wet dreams...

Iphone 5? Well established as a Camera Phone but really being outdated now, All of the above are better for photography.

Apple most likely will be the first one to make a move IMHO, Unless they see Nokia as no threat whatsoever and wait 'til 2014 to roll out the Iphone6....
