Nokia 809 – A Frightening Rotating Camera

Designer: Mkrtchyan Edgar

Designer Mkrtchyan Edgar who gave us Nokia Lumia 960, Nokia Lumia 720 and Nokia Lumia 1001 is now back with Nokia 809. However, this time Edgar frightened me a lot because of the rotating camera.

It is not that I am afraid because the camera rotates but because when the camera of the concept phone rotates, a part of the top edge of the screen follows it religiously without fail! The 41 MP PureView camera has that amazing power to steal a part of the screen when it is rotated for taking shots in different directions!

Anyways, the Nokia 809 comes with straight lines but it has curved edges. The design is pretty asymmetrical. The phone is fancied to be powered by a 1.5 GHz dual-core processor and it comes with a xenon flash for supporting the PureView element. The camera will have 3X optical zoom and it will be capable of capturing videos at 1080p.

On the front is the ClearBlack Technology for 4.3” AMOLED display. The screen comes with a Gorilla Glass safety and is packed with 1280x768 pixels resolution. 32 GB and 64 GB models are the only two versions available.

Among other features you will get MeeGo or Windows Phone 8 OS and there will be Bluetooth, NFC, DLNA, HDMI, microUSB port and slot for microSD card. The phone comes with a 2800 mAh battery and it looks like that the body is made of polycarbonate.
