Smartphone Shootout – Phones 4u has pitted three of the top camera phones against the new kid in town, the Sony Xperia S, to find out which one can draw the fastest when it comes to capturing photos. We review the Wild West’s meanest mobile phones — the iPhone 4S, Galaxy S2 and Nokia Lumia 800 — to see if they have what it takes to hold their ground against the newbie in the P4u Smartphone Shootout. Will the Galaxy S2’s 8 megapixel camera reign supreme? Or will that old boy Carl Zeiss and his lens give the Nokia Lumia the edge? And let’s not forget the iPhone 4S’ 8MP cannon with its fancy illumination technology that could get the gals feeling fruity. Whilst this competition is mainly about speed and the fastest capture, we’re also looking for crisp vivid images to blow us out of the water. It’s no good being fast if you’re a terrible shot.
