The ultimate camera phone
Our Expert Opinion
The Lumia 1020 is the first phone we've seen that can truly replace a compact camera. Its 41-megapixel sensor lets you take astounding shots in both daylight and dark conditions, and the live photo preview makes it a pleasure to mess around with the camera's settings.
Nokia has done some clever stuff with the huge sensor, too. When you're recording video, the extra pixels mean you can zoom into the image and still maintain Full HD quality. The phone can also use a technique called oversampling, where it examines the larger image and keeps only the pixels it things are the most accurate, leading to a smaller, high-quality picture.
You also get a beautifully-made Windows Phone handset with a gorgeous screen, so if you want a handset to replace both your phone and camera, the 1020 is the one to have.
