Nokia is stuttering quite a bit as the brand is facing immense competition from the likes of Samsung who have recently dethroned them as the top selling mobile manufacturer in the world. The brand has pulled up their socks and have unleashed onto the world their Lumia branded handsets that are being powered by the Windows Phone operating system. To further strengthen their portfolio, the brand, at the Mobile World Congress event earlier this year took the wraps off the Nokia 808 PureView, a handset, which would please any one who is interested in camera phone photography as it packs a 41 Megapixel sensor. Since, its announcement, there had been a few detractors as the handset runs on the Symbian OS and not the Windows Phone platform with many folks wanting the latter as the featured OS on the device. In a recent report, the brand has stated that it was not possible for them to launch a Lumia PureView handset as the Windows Phone OS is not able to support this technology as of now.
