The 808 also has everything in terms of connectivity though.
Everything the N9 has , plus FM-Transmitter, HDMI-out & USB-OTG
great phone imo (and as for the browser you can always install Opera 12)
: )
That would have been a true flagship and would have sold soooooo well for Nokia.

@kjmackey or someone has both 808 and n9
I am about to buy a new smartphone and I am between 808 and n9 64gb. If you were in my shoes which one would you prefer, why? Actually I love phones with great camera modules and i was using k850i so far but I can`t help myself buying an n9. And one more thing: which one has better music quality with headphones? Thank you in advance.
And partly because the 808's camera is not possible to give up. But, the N9 is smoother running than even Belle FP1 and I like the way it's a more integrated experience in most ways.
As has been said, an N9 with the 808 PureView's camera (and rich recording) would be perfect for me. But, it's an imperfect universe.

Thank you all for your replies. I am a white n9 user from now on. Price of the 808 was too high i think. I will start digging the n9 as long as it gets fully charged.

in fact i can't even run Panorama on my KP v50 device (without UTG or anything of the like...)
one of the reason it will hardly ever come on m$ crap is because the software side of PureView is quite important and embedding that in Symbian was... possible if not easy whereas on a Linux kernel... well, nothing impossible there neither, for sure, but obviously wasn't worth the effort.
ask yourselves: why didn't N9 & Co have the 12 MP camera of the N8?

if they weren't able to slim down the 12MP to fit into unibody constructions in nearly 2 years, how likely is it they ever do it for the 41MP?

The 808 test by DPReview has just been posted.
Checking some of the high resFigured it would be worth to highlight the last real Nokia smartphone one more time
http://www.dpreview.com/articles/808...a-808-pureview
On full res:
"...scene contains a lot of fairly low-contrast detail, and although output isn't not totally sharp at 100%, the 808 has done an excellent job, at least matching the average mid-range DSLR for pixel-level JPEG sharpness, and exceeding the abilities of some..."
