News & Reviews:   Nokia Lumia 1020 specifications

The Nokia Lumia 1020 has been officially announced. After so many, many leaked images and sample shots, we finally get some official tech specs for what seems to be one of the most powerful cameraphones around. The Nokia Lumia 1020 specs include:

• 1.5Ghz dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor
• 2GB RAM
• 32GB storage
• 4.5-inch ClearBlack PureMotion HD+ AMOLED display (Gorilla 3 Glass, 1280 x 768)
• 2000 mAh battery
• Supports wireless charging with snap-on cover
• 41MP rear camera (BSI Sensor, 2nd gen OIS, 6-lens ZEISS optics, Xenon flash, LED flash) + 1.2MP front camera (wide angle)

With the upcoming reveal of the Nokia EOS or Lumia 1020 being just tomorrow, a number of leaked images, shots and a video of the cameraphone have surfaced. This includes sample pics which were taken using the cameraphone (identified through the pictures EXIF data), new images of the Lumia 1020 in yellow and a whole bunch of others. This also includes a new web site focusing on mobile photography. The site can be accessed here and offers photography news tips and tricks using the Nokia Lumia 920, Nokia Lumia 925 and Nokia Lumia 928. The Nokia Lumia 1020 will probably be added as well after it's reveal on Thursday.

While it still hasn't been released yet another rumour has appeared about the Nokia EOS, Nokia's upcoming cameraphone. Rather than be called the Nokia EOS (which does give it sort of Canon digital camera like sound to it) the cameraphone may soon be called the Nokia Lumia 1020. This rumour comes courtesy of evleaks who has more often than not revealed fairly accurate leaks. They also revealed a press shot quality render of the upcoming Nokia Lumia 1020, although it didn't show the most important part, the rear of the smartphone. So far only the 41MP PureView sensor has been confirmed for their Nokia Lumia 1020 but all should be made clear on 11 July 2013 when Nokia will likely reveal the cameraphone, or at least have 41 million reasons why you should want it. Stay tuned for further developments.

A whole bunch of leaked images of the Nokia EOS have appeared online. While there is no way to know for sure if they are the real thing, they certainly look real enough, not just because they don't look like it's predecessor PureView cameraphone, but also because there are just so many angles available. It seems unlikely that someone would post up this many photoshop renders.

With Nokia's Catwalk or Nokia Lumia 925 already making it's official appearance, the next Nokia device to hit the rumour mills is the Nokia EOS. Based on the Nokia 808 PureView, the Nokia EOS is the Windows Phone-based version and so far looks to be incorporating the same 41MP camera sensor from the 808 PureView. Other tech specs may also include the same 4.5-inch AMOLED display as the aforementioned Nokia Lumia 925. In addition to this the EOS may also include the new Nokia Pro Camera app which allows for manual focusing.
