The Sony Corporation says that the Sony Xperia "Honami" camera phone will sport a full HD display sized 5 inches diagonally, while being powered by the mighty Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 chipset with four Krait 400 cores clocked at 2.3 GHz and Adreno 320 GPU. Of course, Being a camera phone it has a 20 megapixel camera, and since we will be dealing with a member of the CyberShot tribe we might also seem some innovative features for the camera app. Also it is being said that the sensor of sony Honami is better than the Nokia Lumia 1020, which means better images. The Nokia is no match for the design of Sony mobiles. Also the Hardware of Sony Honami is 2 Times more powerful than the Nokia Lumia 1020.
But we personally think that it is not worth the trouble, why ?
Lets Find Out :

Operating System : Windows Phone 8
Processor : 1.5 GHz Dual Core Snapdragon S4.
Memory : 2 GB Ram And 32 GB Internal Storage.

In-Detail Specs About The Camera :
The Nokia Pure View 41 MP camera with optical image stabilization with Xenon flash for still images and LED flash for video is definitely one hell of a camera. No mobile in history has this much Mega Pixel and features, And it is perfectly able to capture Pics at night, because of its 41 MP sensor that uses ZEISS optics with six lenses (yupp 6 Lenses ) that process the picture perfectly.
It Has 41 Mega-Pixel, I'm Sure It Click's The Best Pictures :
Ah, The Classic Rumor. The More The Pixel, The Better The Pictures Are. I'm sorry guys, but Mega-Pixels Doesn't determine the photo quality, The Sensor Does.
In Fact, If you stuff excess pixels in normal Pictures, The Pic would itself become crappy. How ? Packing a larger sensor with more than three times the number of pixels doesn't translate into better photos: smaller pixels collect less light, which worsens image quality. The thing is, Nokia doesn't really want you to use the full resolution of its sensor.For Regular Pictures it uses 5 Super Pixels.
Have you heard about the term "Ultra-Pixel" ? It states that the more big the pixels are, the better the photo quality would be. And it is true, As A Ultra-Pixel Absorbes more data than the Mega-Pixel, And More Data Means More Clear Image. It was recently proved by HTC One.
The Nokia Lumia Itself uses 5 Super-Pixels for normal quality photo-shoots.

So What Are The Uses Of 41 MP And 5 Super-pixels ?
The Nokia Lumia 1020 Has 2 Main Picture Clicking Modes : Normal And Zoom.
When using the normal ( 5 Super-Pixel ) mode, your picture will be excellent if you want to click picture where you don't want to zoom, For example : Portraits and Close Range Pics. The 5 Super-Pixel is equivalent to 34 Mega-Pixels (give or take).
But When Clicking Large Pictures (like Mountains or Sky scrappers), You would obviously need to zoom, And that is where the 41 Mega-Pixel Comes into action. The main functional reason for using smaller (denser) sensor pixels is that it allows a whole new approach to digital zoom. Instead of cropping into images, as standard digital zooms do, theaweber blogger Lumia 1020 can ‘crop into’ the sensor in order to achieve what Nokia calls lossless zoom. It means you can Zoom to some far away places without having busted picture. And to control that zoom option, Nokia has added a scroll button that lets you zoom in or out easily.

Enough About The Camera, What Else ?
The main weakness of this mobile is that it uses Microsoft Windows Phone 8 OS, And as much as i love Windows Phone OS, i hate to say that this mobile would be much much better with Android running on it. The Windows Phone has 160,000 Application in the store whereas the rivals (iOS, Android) offer upto 5 times more than that. But the development rate is still high for Windows Phone OS, so don't give up your hope yet !
Also the battery lasts up-to 8-9 usage hours, which is average for today's mobiles but still, they could have done it better.
The Display is quite amazing, Its Responsive, Colorful and Bright. Watching movies are delight on this 4.5-inch AMOLED PureMotion HD+ display with a 1,280x768-pixel HD display and a 16:9 aspect ratio screen.
The wireless charging option is missing in Lumia 1020, why ? Because the Big-ass lens took all the space on the back cover.
The Screen Is Bright And Colorful, No Matter what You'll Fall in love with it. |
