Rumours: Nokia Phablet getting Metal Casing?

Metal Nokia vs Lumia.jpg

A number of metallic casings for a Nokia phone have surface recently and while they initially looked like the upcoming Nokia EOS, a closer look reveals that it may not be. While there is a raised camera hump like the Nokia EOS, it looks too small to fit earlier leaks of the Nokia EOS's massive 41MP PureView sensor. Lining up the chassis with a Nokia Lumia on the other hand reveals that metallic chassis could be for the rumoured Nokia Phablet as the chassis is much larger compared to the standard Nokia Lumia size.

The larger than average camera hump could mean that the earlier Pelican Imaging 16-lens camera array could be headed for the metallic chassis of the Nokia Phablet. No news just yet on names, availability or other tech specs but the upcoming Nokia phablet is expected to have a 1080 x 1920 pixel resolution and be powered by GDR 3 of Windows Phone 8.
