Nokia has listed its Lumia 1020 smartphone, which has a 41MP rear
camera, on its India website. This handset was unveiled just a week ago
at an even in London and is said to have the best camera among all
smartphones.
Nokia India's official website has
listed Lumia 1020 in 'Coming Soon' section. However, the company has
not given any details on its pricing or launch date. A listing on
e-commerce website eBay India shows that the handset has been
unofficially priced at Rs 51,450, with launch date of September-October
2013.
The 41MP camera of Lumia 1020 records
more details than other camera phones and even tops many point-and-shoot
cameras, Nokia says. More pixels mean more sensors for capturing the
light that forms an image.
Lumia 1020
smartphone features a technology called Dual Capture, which takes two
shots at the same time, one at 38MP resolution and the other at 5MP. The
former is meant for photo editing, while the latter is ideal for social
media uploads, said Nokia. The 41MP Zeiss camera has six lenses and
features Nokia's PureView imaging technology, along with two types flash
- one LED and the other Xenon.
Other hardware
specs of the Lumia 1020 include 4.5-inch PureMotion HD+ Amoled display,
1.5GHz dual-core processor, 2GB RAM, 2,000mAh battery and 32GB internal
storage. The company said the smartphone will arrive in US on July 26 on
AT&T, priced at $299. After the US launch, Lumia 1020 will be
headed to China and key European markets.
Nokia
listed its Lumia 925 smartphone on its India website in May this year,
but is yet to launch the device or give any word on its price. The
company also slashed the price of Lumia 920 from Rs 38,199 to Rs 31,999.
It has also started EMI and insurance schemes for its smartphones in
the Indian market.
