In a time honored tradition, we have the latest and greatest camera phones lined up and ready to shoot for the top. It’s been a while, we know. The last time we had a taste of 8MP sharp shooting action was in the distant 2008. 8MP then and 8MP now, but things cannot be more different.
We’re looking for the best cameraphone among some of the industry’s finest smartphones. This is not a battle of platforms and ideologies. This time around we’re not interested in all-round skill and user experience. All the participants in this challenge are under strict instructions to shoot. And they will be shooting to kill.
Let’s meet our contenders. The brand new iPhone 4S seems to be the one to look out for, but the Samsung Galaxy S II has had a consistently excellent record so far. Then there’s the Sony Ericsson Xperia arc S and the latest HTC Sensation XE. The outstanding Nokia N9 and the Windows Phone heavyweight HTC Titan are also in the ring.

Rather than a generational jump as we saw in February 2011 (when the Pro moved from Intel’s original Core i-series CPUs to the latest second-generation chips, formerly code-named Sandy Bridge), this is perhaps better described as minor housekeeping.
