Nokia has yet to launch its monster camera-phone, the PureView 808, though the Finnish company originally promised that the handset would be released on the market sometime in May.

Unfortunately, Nokia 808 PureView will not be available in all countries, so the fact that the smartphone has just been priced in Saudi Arabia is an indication that it will be launched through Nokia’s official channels.

The folks at MyNokiaBlog have just been tipped that the Nokia 808 PureView will be available in Saudi Arabia in a couple of days for around 535 USD (430 EUR) off-contract.

The smartphone will be shipped with Nokia Belle FP1 out of the box and will pack a 1.3 GHz single-core ARM 11 processor, complemented by 512MB of RAM.

However, the phone’s selling point is the 41-megapixel rear camera, which features Carl Zeiss optics, Xenon flash, autofocus and full HD (1080p) video recording.
