Someone inside that company has to be personally responsible for a 4" 360x640 display, symbian and a 41mp camera? How can you possibly get the specs of a phone to wrong when you're a company who makes phones

It's not the best looking phone and the resolution is a tad small for the screen size but they probably had to use Symbian due to wanting a '41MP' (uses a standard 5/8MP sensor and they oversample the images) camera and WinPho's strict hardware requirements.
Still not sure what's wrong with the specs though

After watching Top Gear last night, I can conclude that Nokia are the Saab of phones

And what the fuck are they doing with that sensor on a phone? The lens is going to be the size your your little fingers nail

nHD on a 4" screen for starters, then running symbian and that made up 41 megapixel figure.

As said there's no doubt a reason behind running Symbian, i'm sure they would have used WinPho considering they're paid to use it, and the '41MP' (apparently the photos are meant to be pretty decent) is no different to standalone cameras that use oversampling.
Sounds like a load of bandwagoning Nokia bashing for the sake of it

What about the terrible resolution on a massive screen?

The Lumia 800 looks good - I don't like the transitions between screens on Windows though, find it really irritating.

I mentioned earlier that it was crap and you're right in thinking that it should be higher, but i have a feeling it might be a limitation of Symbian - apart from WinPho Nokia's the only Nokia i know that had a reasonable resolution was the N9 but that was Meego based, can't think of any Symbian phone (N8 was around the 320x640 resolution) that didn't have a similar resolution (by all means suggest otherwise).
