Nokia Lumia 1020 stands out among cameras, snaps honors at CES 2014

The Nokia Lumia 1020 has been named an honoree at the 2014 CES Innovations Design and Engineering Awards in the Digital Imaging product category. The Lumia 1020 stands out as the one and only smartphone in the Digital Imaging category.

This is clear recognition of how the Lumia 1020’s superior imaging capabilities stand shoulder to shoulder with dedicated digital cameras and camcorders from manufacturers such as Nikon, Panasonic and Sony. Honored for its 41-megapixel sensor and innovative PureView technology, the Lumia 1020 produces some of the sharpest images of any digital camera available on the market today.

Scoring highly across all judging criteria, the Lumia 1020 has been selected by an esteemed panel of designers, engineers and journalists. And it’s no surprise, when you consider that with Nokia Camera, consumers have the ability to control features such as exposure value, ISO and manual focus, the way they would with DSLRs, giving a truly unique imaging experience on a smartphone.

Ranking alongside compact digital cameras, digital system cameras and camcorders, judges were looking out for engineering qualities, user value and how the design and innovation of each product directly compared to other products in the marketplace. Landing a place on the honoree’s table rounds off a fantastic year for PureView and the Lumia 1020.

The Lumia 1020 will be featured, with the other eight honorees, at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas during early January 2014.
