    What mobile phone on the market has the best camera? Samsung Galaxy S4 with its 13MP offering?

    The s4 zoom looks a lot more like a proper camera but the phone bit is downgraded a lot from the normal s4.

    Nokia Lumia 920 and the new Lumia 925 are recognised as having on of the best cameras at the moment.

    However, they apparently releasing their PureView camera as seen in the Nokia 808 which has 48MP and is generally considered to be the best camera in a phone out there.

    As above, the Nokias are meant to be good.

    Ignore the MP ratings though and think more about the optics. Depending on what it’s for, a cheap compact may be better.

    as above, Nokia seem to have really good lens’s, lots of phones quote high MP’s, but all you get is a high resolution bad picture..

    The lens is where its at.

    The new Nokia may be worth a look then, anyone used Windows?

    Yes – awesome if you can live without some of the major apps. Support getting better.

    F/book and twitter integration best there is. Fast, smooth and Nokia’s built in Here apps (particularly Drive and Transit) are absolutely first class.

    I won’t have any other o/s on my phone.

    The Nokie 808 has the best camera but then it has the massive disadvantage of running Symbian, a good article about it is here

    My S3 takes pretty good photo’s, its a massive improvement on the quality of them compared to my ye olde HTC Desire, but the HTC One is meant to be pretty good as well as some of the Nokia Lumia phones.

    It looks like there will be a Nokia Windows Phone with the 41MP oversampling technology coming out soon (July 11th?)

    On the current market the Nokia 925 has just come out. There is also the Samsung Galaxy S4 zoom, which is a compact camera with a smartphone attached. Unfortunately the phone attached isn’t a S4 but more like lower spec S4 mini. There’s the HTC One with its Ultrapixels too.

    In current market it’s probably Nokia 925, with the down up side that it runs Windows Phone 8

    @LTR – I don’t use apps much myself and can usually find something that does the same thing only different.

    Instagram’s not on there, Strava are two that spring to mind and games are somewhat sparser.

    The leading phones all have a decent camera in them or at least for snaps.
