Nokia PureView coming to Lumia series of Windows Phone

Remember the Nokia 808 PureView boasting a 41 MP camera that was introduced at this years MWC. The PureView technology is now confirmed to be heading to the Lumia range of Windows Phones.

Nokia's Jo Harlow validated the speculation that the manufacturer would be brining this technology to the Lumia Windows Phone family in an interview with Finnish newspaper Aamulehti. When asked when we should expect to see such a device, Harlow replied "I can’t say precisely when, but it will not take very long." Windows Phone Apollo (when we're more than likely to see PureView on Microsoft's platform) just got that little bit sweeter, no?

The combo will surely be a catalyst to the Windows Phone platform that is gaining popularity with the release of the Lumia series by Nokia.

Nokia is already the single largest manufacturer of devices running Microsoft’s Windows Phone OS. Starting with Lumia 800, 710, 900 and now 610, Nokia is surely going to gain the lost glory it once had in the mobile market
