The smartphones companies have always been in a race for bringing better cameras to market and Nokia always held its position as a winner. About 4 years ago, Nokia revealed N8 with 12MP lens that was surely the best smartphone camera that time. Then Nokia revealed another revolutionary camera smartphone i.e. Nokia 808 PureView with a huge 41MP sensor. This phone is still the 2nd<\/sup> best smartphone camera right now.\u00a0 This phone runs on Old Symbian platform. Then Nokia adopted Windows Phone as their primary platform and they had to launch a new Windows Phone with some amazing camera. For this purpose they launched Lumia 920<\/a> with Windows Phone 8. That was really something, this phone had the same PureView technology as 808 had but with small 8MP sensor. Then it was Samsung\u2019s turn when it released its Galaxy S4<\/a> zoom with 10x optical zoom. But Nokia then again took its turn and recently launched its new flagship the Lumia 1020 with same camera as of 808 with some extra goodies and it is considered to be the best camera smartphone in the market.<\/p>\n

Now Sony<\/a> considered to take a step in smartphone camera race and announced Xperia Z1 with 20.7MP camera sensor. Let us take a quick short look on it.<\/p>\n
