Nokia EOS / Lumia 1020 Everything to Know with Specs before “Zoom Reinvented” Event Starts Today

While Nokia’s Zoom Reinvented event (hash tag #ZoomReinvented) is just to be kicked out in New York on 11 AM Eastern Time which is 9 PM today in Pakistan, we just thought to rewind the bits and the bytes we have concluded from the leaks and rumors till date. 1 2. 

For Lumia 1020 Specifications Jump after the break

In addition to the leaks by unknown parties, Nokia officially has kept on teasing with the information about the upcoming Lumia smartphone that is most towards the camera, camera and just camera. The very first teaser from the Finnish firm was a yellow banner with labeling “41 million reasons” to tell about the upcoming event

Nokia Conversations has officially published photos inting about the zoom feature of the upcoming Nokia Lumia 1020 with the following shots. Showing a full zoomed photo on left and photo on the right showing full frame. The later one is also named as Zoom2 by Nokia Conv, hence can be believed that it as well is a zoom level on Lumia 1020 and an actual photo without any zoom is yet to come.  However the difference between both photos doesn’t seem to be a single level zoom

3x zoom as referred in the specs below also hints that there will be three zoom levels

In later photos by Joe Belfiore, Microsoft official of Windows Phone, the great looking pictures also referred to Nokia Lumia 1020. But the resolution suggests not be the 41 megapixels which can indeed lead to tell that the Nokia 808 PureView zooming feature is added into next Lumia with the pixels oversampling technique to zoom. Then what’s “Reinvented”? We are waiting for it. Check the pictures below first spotted by The Verge forum member djca.

A russian website izvestia published some images showing a camera grip  which is supposed to snap on the Lumia 1020 with access to the camera shutter key with the inbuilt shutter key on the camera grip. Camera grip does include an extra battery to charge the Lumia 1020.

Price and Availability

Information like prices and availability of unannounced products can not be believed but WPCentral reported, believing their respected source, that the Nokia Lumia 1020 will be costing $699 off contract with full of their assurance of belief on the figure. On-contract price with AT&T will be $299 for two-years contract.

We believe the price may be different from Nokia’s Press event. Just wait a couple of hours more.
