The editors didn't like
No storage expansion
Shot to shot time can be slow
It is completely unreasonable to say that I would prefer if the camera did not take over a second to save the beautiful images it takes since what it's doing with that time is crunching a kiloton of data
But yes
It would be nice if the images saved fast
Costly
No External Storage Option
Adds bulk to the camera
Poor battery
Camera is slow to get going
Shottoshot time should have been less
Not many games available on WP8 platform
Lacks memory card slot
Camera protrusion on back
Uneven weight distribution

Sharpest photos ever from a phone, Pro Camera app provides lots of creative control, Great flash, Bright and colorful display, Optional Camera Grip offers DSLR-like feel
Bulky backside, Noticeable lag on shutter and shot-to-shot time, Windows Phone still trails in apps and features, Pricey, Too many separate photo apps

"IF YOU TAKE YOUR SMARTPHONE CAMERA SERIOUSLY, YOU SHOULD REALLY CONSIDER THE LUMIA 1020"Nokia raised many eyebrows in the tech world by announcing its Lumia 1020 would come with a 41MP camera as most smartphones tend to have cameras that range in the 5MP...
