Ultimate Camera Phones

With so many smartphone users obsessed with apps like Pintrest and Instagram wouldn't it be good if you could take high quality photos on your mobile phone instead of taking them on the moderately good phone cameras. Most of the more expensive smartphones such as the iPhone 4S have an 8MP camera which I suppose is okay, however for the same price you can get phones with over 40MP or phones with 10x Optical Zoom!
Recently the Nikon Coolpix s800c (left) was released, it runs Android 2.3 Gingerbread and it has a massive camera stuck onto the back of it. It has a 3.5-inch touch screen and is wifi enabled. When it comes out it is going to cost around £230.
The camera is 16MP and has 10x optical zoom.

This is closer to a camera than it is to a mobile phone however if you want a really good camera closer to a mobile phone then you might need to consider the Nokia Pureview 808 which has been out for a while now but hasn't been received as well as the Coolpix has.


The Nokia Pureview 808 (left), has a 41MP camera, a good microphone and records full HD videos. It has a 4-inch screen but unfortunately runs Nokia's operating system... Symbian. Unfortuantely this makes the phone a bit old fashioned. And for around £430, you must really, really, really, really, really like high quality or you would be idiotic to part with your cash.
