Alleged Nokia Lumia 1520 “Bandit” Screenshot Surfaces

Alleged Nokia Lumia 1520 Bandit Screenshot SurfacesThanks to various leaks and rumors, it has been revealed unofficially that Nokia is working on a phablet device of their own dubbed the Lumia 1520, or also known as the Bandit internally. We had previously seen a leaked photo that shows the alleged device alongside the Nokia Lumia 1020 with its 6” display dwarfing that of the Lumia 1020’s 4.5” display. Now thanks to a recent post by the ever reliable @evleaks, we might have our first screenshot of Windows Phone 8 running on the Lumia 1520.

Unfortunately the screenshot does not tell us much about the device, although we guess due to the phone’s larger display and higher resolution, the home screen will be able to accommodate more tiles which is a plus for those who felt that there was not enough space on current Windows Phone 8 devices.

No word on when Nokia is expected to launch the Lumia 1520 but apparently an end of September event is said to be held in New York where it has been speculated that the device will be unveiled then. In any case do take it with a grain of salt for now, but hopefully additional details about the alleged device will surface in the coming weeks.

    Alleged Nokia ‘Bandit’ screen grab adds fuel to large 1080p Lumia 1520 rumors (update: GDR3?)

    Nokia 'Bandit' screen leak backs up giant 1520 Lumia

    While technically not the biggest Nokia news of the morning, it’s possibly news of the biggest Nokia. The ever resourceful @evleaks has posted what is claimed to be a screenshot from the Nokia “Bandit,” also suspected to emerge as the Lumia 1520. There’s a lot going on in the image, but one thing’s for sure, you’ll not be left wanting for space for mini tiles. Though even then, there are options.

    Update: Upon further inspection, there are a few interesting things to note. The original image is 1,080 x 1,920 — a resolution not currently supported in Windows Phone. This corroborates claims that GDR3 will be coming along for the ride, along with a revised camera app (or icon, at least). Oh, and of course, more columns and rows for your start menu!

    Nokia “Bandit” Could Be Known As The Lumia 1520

    Nokia Bandit Could Be Known As The Lumia 1520We have been hearing a fair bit about an upcoming Nokia phablet that has been going by the codename Bandit. The device has recently received its Bluetooth SIG certification and while it remains to be seen when exactly will the device make its debut, @evleaks has revealed a possible retail name for the device. According to @evleaks who has been pretty darn reliable in the past, the Nokia Bandit is expected to be known as the Lumia 1520 upon its release. We’re not sure where Nokia is going with their naming scheme, and since this is hardly an official confirmation, do take it with a grain of salt for now, but perhaps it is a model number you could keep an eye out for.
