Camera-Copying Smartphones

The Nokia Lumia 1020 Puts the Emphasis on Being a Camera That Can Call

Looking at the Nokia Lumia 1020, one would mistake it for a digital camera rather than a fully functioning smartphone and that's something that the company intended to do.

The Nokia Lumia 1020 embraces the fact that a large portion of the photos that we're taking on a day-to-day basis are snapped on our smartphones and responds in kind. A 41-megapixel camera rivals some of the most advanced point-and-shoots -- and even DSLRs -- on the market, which might make it one of the more economical choices out there.

A fully functioning Windows Phone, the Nokia Lumia 1020 sets a new standard for smartphone photography and just might become the only device you need when it comes to getting the most out of your devices.
