Nokia has finally put weeks of speculation to rest at its New York press conference today, as the Finnish phone company just pulled back the curtains on its newest flagship handset: the Windows Phone 8-powered Lumia 920.
As expected (thanks to plenty of pre-event leaks), the new Lumia sports a 4.5-inch HD display, and a 1.5 GHz Snapdragon S4 processor. Again, not exactly the sort of spec sheet that will set your world on fire, but Windows Phone has never been the most hardware-intensive mobile OS out there.
Though the device itself doesn’t offer up many hints, a (possibly over-dramatic) introduction video reveals the inclusion of a PureView sensor. Granted, the Lumia 920 only features 8-megapixel sensor compared to the chunky PureView 808′s 41-megapixel behemoth, but Microsoft’s Jo Harlow calls the new handset the “best smartphone camera” out there.
