great article Teo. It has been about two years since the n8, and now yet again we are seeing a massive jump again from Nokia and Carl zeiss.

From low light performance to extraordinary video capture , this phone is indeed deserves to be the flagship nokia carl zeiss phone.

I foresee if I get this phone, amazing post creativity where in full res mode, one is able to pull 2 to 3 images from a single street shot by means of post cropping, thanks to the ultra high resolution and quality sensor. Something never done on a phone camera before.

Kudos Nokia, you are onto a good thing here.
