Nokie 808 PureView: Can a phone be used as a serious camera?

I tried to investigate a little bit with my own phone some months ago. But here you have an in depth review of the new Nokia 808 PureView phone with a 41 megapixels camera (yes: you've read it right, 41 megapixels camera in a phone), posted by The Verge.

One thing is clear: the rate things are going, the concept of "compact camera" is going to disappear in a matter of months. There will have cameras used casually from phones, and then dedicated cameras under the form of mirrorless models, or fully fledged reflex models.

By the way, the reviewers are, ahem, less than impressed by the quality of the operating system used by this phone, which is Symbian...
