I've been testing the sound trough headphones against the iPhone 5, and I have to say, the 808 excels overall.

^^ what, are you trying to do? Scrutinize the photo without oversampling? Just shoot it @38mp and youll get no oversampling. Or if you want to spend some for it, i believe harald meyer's camera pro produces raw images. I could be wrong though. |

the closes to raw we have is superfine mode @ 95% jpeg compression.
Has anyone updated to Feature Pack 2 ? I was reading this last night:
http://symbian-developers.net[....]ture-pack-2-personal-analysis/
and in the "cons" he says "low quality and blurred images" whatever that might mean.. so, I wonder if they messed with the quality, just like they did when they updated the N8 to Belle, in my opinion, to make the Lumia phones look better when people compare the two..  I am afraid the same thing might happen for the sake of the 920/820 launch ..
Yes, I like my conspiracy theories, until someone proves me wrong  |

Interesting, then how about You update your 808 and take before and after photos? I bet some people here would like to know how the quality changed, and You will have a chance to prove yourself wrong (or right)  |

I read that the rolling out of FP2 was stopped due to problems reported in the software..

It should have gotten the "best innovation" award as well.. but they gave it to the Samsung Note.. which isn't even a 2012 model. |

My 808 Ultimately Arrived At My Hands ! 
And I Decided Do a Comparative Rustic And Simple With The 808 Facing Galaxy S III (The Most Devoted Smartphone Android Of History), Sony Ericsson C905 (Great Cameraphone Sony), Sony WX50 (CyberShot Camera) And Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus (Good Tablet) !!!
The Photos Were Captured In 8 Megapixels In Mode Automatic And With ISO Sensitivity (400)... The Tablet In 3.2 Megapixels In Mode Automatic And With Iso Sensitivity (400) !!!
Example 808 PureView Pro
Example Galaxy S III
Example Sony Ericsson C905
Example Sony W50
Example Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus
P.S (1): The Bricks Of Photographed Environment Was Lit With a Single Tungsten Bulb !!!
P.S (2): I With The 808 PureView Pro There Only "2 Hours" In Hands Therefore I Believe I That Still I Could Not Explore All Your Pontencial However Becomes Clear That Same Under These Circumstances He Was The Best !

You had some great scenes with your other phones Guarulhos, can you go back and retake those with your 808? I love the falls specifically. Should be great to see them through the 808 |

Anyone willing to give it a try on how the image quality changed?  |

No difference in quality between fp1 and fp2 .. the confusion came from people complaining about the quality in the other fp1 devices (603,700,701) where they updated the camera app with the one from the 808, and the quality went down for some reason.. which is very similar to what happened to the N8 when they updated the camera app from Anna to Belle.
No change for the 808. FP2 is great overall.. they did a good job.
Guarulhos congrats on the 808 .. you got a red one.. very rare!
I mainly shoot in automatic mode, but here are my custom settings:
C1 (landscape): 8Mpix PureView mode, superfine jpeg, vivid colors, sharpness +1, ND filter off for the most part, I only turn it on if its a really bright scene. Don't worry, it will look like its overexposed on screen, but once you take the shot it will be okay.
If you want more color, bring the saturation up. Adjust EV and ISO according to the conditions. If you want a natural looking image, which I prefer, just set the color mode to normal.
C2(sunset/sunrise): 5Mpix PureView mode, superfine jpeg, vivid, everything else on 0. Color tone: cloudy. EV on -.7 .. depending on conditions. ND filter OFF (faster shutter speeds)
C3 (aiming for the most natural image): Full resolution, everything on default except +1 or +2 sharpness, nd filter OFF
At night, if you want to blur motion.. ND filter ON and set the iso @ 50. If you just want to take a shot, you can go up to 800 iso, and the images are still usable.
for HDR, bracketing mode 3 shots: -2, 0, +2 .. set the ISO to 100, ND filter to ON or OFF (not on auto)
Good luck shooting  its a great device overall..
