After the Nokia 808 Pureview in all its MegaPixel goodness got an award last week, the company has just announced that it will be hitting stores sometime this May. Seeing as we’re already in the second day of the month, we’ll just have to wait until a more precise release date comes up for the Symbian-Belle powered device with its massive 41MP camera. From the announcement, the first countries that will receive the device will be Russia and India with additional countries coming in a later announcement.

The Nokia PureView that was shown off by Nokia in MWC this year is much like any other smartphone nowadays except for two things. The first is that it is running on Nokia’s Symbian OS.

Besides that, the phone will have a 1.3 GHz single-core chip, a 4-inch display with a 360×640 (nHD) resolution, 512MB of RAM, 16GB of storage space which can be expanded with a microSD and a Pentaband modem.
