Nikon May Unveil Android-powered Camera With Google Play Access on August 22nd

Nikon is reportedly preparing to announce its first Android powered compact camera, reportedly called the Coolpix S800 or S800c.

According to Nikon Rumors, the camera will be equipped with a 3.5-inch OLED display and will run Android 2.3 Gingerbread. The device will also supposedly feature a 25-250mm zoom lens, built-in GPS and Wi-Fi, and it will have access to the Google Play store.

This isn’t the first Android-based camera we have seen — Polaroid showed off the SC1630 Smart Camera at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show in January, but the device has yet to make its way onto the market. Nikon is rumored to announce the Coolpix S800 on August 22nd.
