    Rumours: Nokia Bandit phablet appears?

    Phablets seem to be all the rage especially for smartphone makers who haven't ever made any which is why rumours about a phablet from Nokia sound so juicy. Recently, rumours have surfaced about the Nokia phablet in that it would be called the Nokia Bandit (previously we heard it would be Bendit, but this makes more sense). According to some sources the Nokia Bandit is currently being tested internally, with tech specs for it including the following:

    • Quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor
    • 6-inch 1080p display
    • 20MP rear Camera
    • Windows Phone GDDR3
  • Rumours: 6-inch Nokia Phablet Front panel appears

    Rumours: 6-inch Nokia Phablet Front panel appears

    Rumours that Nokia is working on a phablet have been going about since the beginning of the year. While there have been a number of leaks, from side by side pictures to possible naming conventions (Bendit?) the most recent picture to surface looks like the front panel of the phablet from what looks to be a factory floor (supposedly in China). The picture confirms that it will be another 6-inch monster with super-thin bezels but rumours have it being named as the Nokia Lumia 1030, which could indicate a possible oversized camera hump much like the recently released Nokia Lumia 1020.

  • Nokia Teases Next Big Launch Late 2013

    Nokia Teases Next Big Launch Late 2013

    While it hasn't been all that long since the Nokia Lumia 1020 launch, Nokia seem to be prepping or teasing for another major launch. The direct comment from Nokia's Stephan Elop was "next major launch" and came up during the Q & A session for the Nokia Lumia 1020. The Nokia head didn't reveal anything else such as what was going to be revealed or when, just that it would be a major launch and not an incremental model version like the Nokia Lumia 928 and 925 were for the Nokia Lumia 920. While this doesn't mean we shouldn't look forward to a waterproof Nokia Lumia 1025 or interchangeable lens Nokia Lumia 1028 it does seem to indicate that a completely new Nokia product is waiting in the wings.

  • Rumours: Nokia Phablet getting Metal Casing?

    Rumours: Nokia Phablet getting Metal Casing?

    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.

  • Rumour: Nokia Building 6-inch Phablet?

    Rumour: Nokia Building 6-inch Phablet?

    The phablet is looking to stay with more and more companies joining up with their 5+ inch phablets. Nokia is also rumoured to be developing one as well which we reported on ealier and while there have been rumours of 8-inch Windows tablets, this Nokia phablet is now rumoured to be measured at 6-inches. The device would be powered using Windows Phone 8 and is set to be priced from $621 to $776 (RM1884 to RM2354). According to reports, this 6-inch Nokia phablet would be released by Q4 of 2013, which could just as well mean the end of the year.
