2. Nokia 808 PureView
Number of Megapixels: 41MP
Released in 2012, 808 PureView ranks second in our list of smartphones with the highest megapixel camera. It set a new high when it comes to smartphone cameras, packing 41MP. Back camera also has an f2.4 aperture size, Carl Zeiss optics, and Xenon Flash. The front one isn’t even worth mentioning. You would expect that 41MP camera will give you an outstanding photo quality, right? Well, it didn’t. The camera was pretty great at the time, but its default shooting was set at 5MP. After you would increase it to 41MP, you would lose the ability to zoom. You could only get the full usage of those 41MP if you were to transfer pictures on your computer. To sum things up, the camera was good for 2012 standards, but nothing out of this world.
