Conclusion
Nokia's Lumia 800 is a very good smartphone and very much deserves comparisons with the HTC Titan, which, despite having a better camera, is less stylish and offers fewer services. Nokia has taken a little while to change direction, but this new smartphone marks a solid return to form for what is still the world's largest mobile manufacturer, coupled with an innovative OS that's definitely worth a closer look. Keep up the good work!
The Canon PowerShot SX280 HS is a successful update of the SX260 HS, bringing Wi-Fi connectivity and the DIGIC 6 image processor for boosted responsiveness and improved picture quality. All in all, this is a very good superzoom compact. Still, competitors are already moving ahead, sometimes with better technology and a wider range of options.
