Nokia's 41-Megapixel Smartphone
While the 41-megapixel number certainly sounds impressive, what’s really fantastic about the Nokia PureView 808 is what it does with those pixels. The 808 uses a new pixel oversampling technology that captures seven pixels of information, and then condenses all seven into one single pixel. The result is an exceptionally sharp 5-megapixel picture.
Unlike your traditional 5-megapixel picture, however, you can zoom in on any part of the photograph and still see everything clearly, thanks to there essentially being seven pixels where the traditional photo would have one.
Nokia posted teaser images on its U.S. Facebook fanpage Friday, with Monday’s date, which also happens to be the date of Microsoft’s mystery event, leading many to believe that Microsoft was perhaps planning a tablet announcement involving Nokia.
