Also, former Nokia camera guru Damian Dinning talked about the 12MP shooter on their upcoming Nokia N8. Some light was shed on the circumstances of the infamous exploded Galaxy S III, while the Galaxy S II got updated to Android 4.0.4 ICS. Finally, this week last year saw yet more famous device launches, including one from a relatively unknown Indian manufacturer.


Back in 2008, the Samsung i8510 Primera surfaced sporting a 2.8-inch QVGA screen, 128MB of RAM, 8GB/16GB of storage, and an 8MP shooter. It boasted WiFi and GPS connectivity running on the latest Symbian 9.3 OS with S60 interface, and was heralded as the ultimate feature-rich smartphone. Times certainly have changed.

A year later we saw the LG GC990 Louvre pop up in a few exclusive shots. Sporting a 12MP shooter with Schneider-Kreuznach optics, and rumored to shoot 720p@30fps videos. It was the first device rated to sport both 12MP stills and HD video. Ultimately, the Louvre turned out to be a concept that LG never brought to market.

At the same time Sony, then still partnered with Ericsson, revealed their Xperia Rachael smartphone. The Rachael sported a 852 x 480px resolution screen, and with its 4-inch diagonal was one of the highest resolution displays on a mobile device.

On release, the Nokia N8 sported one of the most impressive cameras found on a smartphone, with tack-sharp details, ultra accurate colors, and a slew of image enhancements perfected by the Finnish company.

In our last edition of counterclockwise, we looked back at a Galaxy S III flagship that exploded without explanation. As it turned out, Samsung's investigation revealed that improper use was what led to the incident, rather than faulty manufacturing. Meanwhile, Samsung's previous Galaxy S II flagship received an update to Android 4.0.4 ICS almost exactly two years ago.



Finally, up-and-coming Indian manufacturer Micromax revealed its immensely popular Canvas 4 smartphone in its home market for $295. Meanwhile, Nokia revealed its latest Nokia Lumia 1020 flagship with 41MP PureView camera, while rumors of an upcoming Galaxy Note III smartphone from Samsung surfaced with an expected September 4 release date.
