Nokia not releasing a new Pureview for now

released many other cellphones, in different market sectors & the meeting seemed well done ...5g seems a difficult hurdle & the high end saturated, but the biggest factor for the near 2 year interval stems from feeling the need to top the 9, no simple matter regarding the camera

from the specs I've read, the new Pureview Edge 10 or whatever they call the next iteration, betters my Pureview 9 in all regards, save for the camera, which while wild speculation surpasses it with sensors & lenses, seems to lose the contribution from amazing proprietary layering system employed in the present Pureview

this is not a problem, as my Pureview 9 is built to last as long as its battery holds out & I suspect I can get new batteries for it (though none of the places I checked here in Houston will touch it :-() ...sadly I bent its frame wearing too tight dungarees during an emergency last winter

sitting atop its case

patience a virtue

a replacement for this on ebay & Google

new the lowest Nokia 9 Pureview price came in at just under $1 K

I'll be more careful with my new Nokia Pureview, when ever the folks in Finland are ready to hatch it

and send this one to Nokia for a proper frame repair
