Nokia 808 PureView, Reds, Whites and Blacks.

| July 16, 2012 | 26 Replies

Not sure exactly what this is but it seems like they’re taking on the colours of the Nokia 808 PureView, all snapped I think, by the 808 PureView.

That red is totally quite something else no? Stunning. Red and black, white and black or just black.

Notice also the level that they’re zooming in and everything is still super crisp!

Their picture for the white doesn’t look all that nice (though the white 808 is also stunning). The black picture looks better than the white one (composition wise).

    i thought they weren’t making any red 808s considering you cant find them anywhere -_- its what i wanted

    but im very happy with the White one

    • Aliqudsi says:

      Most stores I’ve heard of are getting the red in the second shipment, maybe just some manufacturing delays; my black one is growing on me, but I really wanted white :/

      • stylinred says:

        white is soooo awesome now that i have it i cant imagine the red being more appealing :D

        • twig says:

          I got my white today and it looks great in person. I cut up a washcloth and put it in a leather belt case to hold this pretty thing. Build quality, excellent. Belle runs great. That camera is what I’ve been waiting for all my life and thank you Nokia for creative mode. Excellent job. Feels like a Nokia should. Android guys would even like this. Like that NFC film.

      I got a white one, though I wanted a black one, Last stock in the store. It is nice.

    • Amish says:

      I got the same reply from dealers here in India.. wanted to get a red one, but settled for a white.

    Red PureView 808 came available in Finland last week.

  3. Valmon says:

    I’ve given up hoping the 808 will come out in the UK, still I could always buy a WP7 that can’t be upgraded to WP8.

    Oh wait, no I can’t as I haven’t lost my mind.

    • stylinred says:

      amazon uk has had the 808 in for a few days

      • Matt says:

        Yup, £485. The day after I bought one it dropped by £5, now it’s down another £10.

        The white IS beautiful, buy one NOW!!

        Oh Purdy, how I love you so xxx

        Oops, getting carried away there.

        Anyway, mine is named Purdy if you hadn’t got that already ;)

        • stylinred says:

          you could ask amazon to refund you the difference

          its not policy to “price guarantee/match” anymore but if you ask nicely they might

          Its cheaper to order from France btw they dropped 30EUR

  4. MontyN95 says:

    Waiting on the Red as well!!

  5. stylinred says:

    Oh I spoke too soon

    at least at expansys

    • MontyN95 says:

      I’m sorry but the Red still looks the best!!! I agree white looks good as well, even the black looks nice with the glossy camera bit! Well the 808 design just looks awesome!

      But I’m gonna hold out for the red :P

      • Dave says:

        Word of warning on the black glossy bit.

        It doesn’t look like it’ll stay glossy, even after only a few days, its starting to show minor signs of wear on the “lower” section where it rests on a surface.

        The CC-3046 best be available soon.

    Side note I thought the Finland factory were making the 808 too? all the European stock (France, Germany, UK) are Made in China what gives?

    • Janne says:

      Finnish factory moved from manufacturing to software customization only already in the spring (and will shut down alltogether soon), so no 808′s made in Finland (or Europe).

      • stylinred says:

        ahhh no that sucks, but i guess i can feel better that i didnt get a Made in Finland unit

        I had thought they were manufacturing the initial stock of 808s before closing down :/

        ah well what a shame I guess my N8 is my last Made in Finland Nokia

        thanks for the info

  7. dss says:

  8. MontyN95 says:

    I wonder if Nokia will make replacement back covers for the 808!?!? That way, I can get the black one now and replace the back cover with a red one! :D

  9. twig says:

    They are all magnificent and they sure feel like you have something very special in hand. I think it’s the whole camera hump. It looks like wow. I hope they keep this camera look because it’s a “show off” point.

  10. Jari says:

    No 808´s available via Dna shops here in Finland.. I need one! Amazon.fr had three white ones in stock today, but I dont own credit card, never needed one, so I cant buy from there. Have the cash here.. and possibly gonna buy white N9 too, my black N9 64Gb is working ok, but got to have unused N9 too. Jolla phone on my shopping list too. Maybe too many phones, my N95 8GB is still in daily use. NO M$ here.. Only Original Nokia ones.
