It's been a while since Nokia's rumoured America bound Lumia 929 made headlines but now the phone is back in the news, with new HD snapshots along with a leaked list of key features.
Windows Phone Central has posted a fresh set of high-resolution images of Lumia 929, giving us an opportunity to take a closer look at the Nokia's forthcoming device. The new smartphone in the picture sports a big glossy display, giving enough space to tuck-in multiple tiles (icons) on the home page. On the backside, the phone seems to have polycarbonate-based matte finish. [To view the snapshots of Lumia 929, Click Here].
Lumia 929, which is touted as the successor Lumia 928, reportedly sports a bigger 5.0-inch super AMOLED display with full HD (1920x1080p) resolution and ships with Lumia Black OS (Windows Phone 8 update 3), powered by a faster and efficient 2.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 series quad-core processor, aptly backed by 2GB RAM and 32GB memory (non-expandable).
Like all high-end Lumia handsets, the upcoming Lumia 929 - which is specifically crafted for Verizon network carrier - is also touted to boast a feature-rich camera, a 20-megapixel PureView snapper with dual LED flash and has the ability to take dual-shots of 16-MP and 5-MP photos simultaneously, a feature we see in the company's new flagship phablet Lumia 1520.
Other expected features include Qi wireless charging ability, FM radio, NFC, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth v4.0 with LE (Low Energy) and 4G LTE network support.
Many thought that the Lumia 929 would get unveiled at the Nokia World event on 22 October. But Windows Phone Central now claims that the new phone is expected to get unveiled between Thanksgiving and the beginning of 2014.
