Lumia 920 image crop at 100% retains detail and colour – 1/15sec, f/2.0, ISO 640

Apple iPhone 4S (HDR on) image crop at 100% reveals significant noise artefacts – 1/15sec, f/2.4, ISO 800
Here's the low light comparison. All three pictures were taken a minute apart. The first two are the Blackberry Bold 9900 – not the best camera on the market, but not the worst – and fairly typical of the optics people have in their pocket. The bottom picture was taken on the Lumia 920.

Re: With such a great camera why fake the pictures then?
If such a camera could receive SMS messages, act as a full voice-guided GPS SatNav and fit comfortably in my pocket, I might consider it. Sadly, I don't know of any. If you do, please link them because I'm not kidding.

"possibly the phone was worth it for the camera alone."
NO ! you do realize what sort of camera you can actually buy for half the price of this phone ?
To ee or not to ee
Sorry - couldn't resist.
Given my experiences with Orange in the past though there is no way in hell I would invest in a 4G phone only to have to use their sorry excuse of a network. It may be the biggest in terms on the ease with which you can connect but just try doing anything on their 3G network - never mind 4G - once you're connected. As far as I'm concerned the EE exclusiivity is a deal breaker for me, and if Nokia were really to withhold unlocked sets for even longer than currently planned then I may well end up buying something else.
I hope this doesn't happen though as the 920 looks like a nice handset. Why Nokia would stop people like me from buying one though really is beyond me. Are they still in self-destruct mode?

Let slip? Bang on about might be closer to the mark..
