Dynamic Device in the Nokia 808

Edited: Dec 19, 2014, 11:50 PM

Phone owned for more than a year

The Nokia 808 is an absolute suberb device. Nokia Belle FP2 is very fluid and simple to use. It's no iOS or Android, but it gets the job done. The clear black display is awesome in direct sunlight, device feels great in the hand compared to enormous devices now and the hero of this device is the 41MP camera that will not disappoint at all. A true Marvel in mobile photography that you have to use to truly enjoy and appreciate.

I bought this smartphone in september of 2012. Im still using because is still better than the majority even having Android. As GSM arena said, Symbian now is really good. Is a pleasure use it, and fast. There are 200k apps in the oficial Store (closed) and more apps adding in the new Store supported by Symbian community.

Cam is great, and reliable. I dont want to add anything because everyone knows that this camera still being the best one.
