Nokia tipped to bring 41 megapixel sensor to standard smartphones (again)
This week The Guardian is tipping the world from one of their anonymous sources that Nokia may well be bringing their full-on Nokia 808 PureView 41 megapixel sensor to a set of standard smartphones in 2013. This tip comes from "sources close to the Finnish handset maker" and is indeed appearing to us to be just about as incredible as it may seem to you. What we'll likely see instead is a continuation of the Nokia Lumia 920's high-powered camera technology rather than the beast that is the lens configuration on the 808 - let's have a chat about why.

This week the folks at HTC have created a rather interesting “Brief History of Photography” timeline in which they tease a “new sound and camera experience” for 2013 – but isn’t that what they did last year?

HTC M7 tipped to use “Ultrapixel” camera sensor
As we await the final reveal of the HTC M7 smartphone it's been tipped that the device will be the first in a line of devices from the company to use the term "Ultrapixels" instead of megapixels. This rebranding of the camera technology used in smartphones will signify a new way in which HTC is working with sensors, here using three 4.3-megapixel sensors instead of one single 13 megapixel sensor. This rebranding will make certain consumers won't mistake what at first seems to be a 4-megapixel camera for something less than it actually is - a new generation in smart device camera technology.
