Microsoft and Nokia got the Windows Phone 8 ball rolling late last
year with the launch of a number of handsets that included the Lumia
920, but the smartphone manufacturer made the strange decision to offer
the handset as an exclusive offering for a couple of carriers in both
the US and UK. These exclusive deals have begun to end and now there are
reports of a flagship Nokia handset for a release on Verizon could be
the Lumia 928.
Previously AT&T were the only carrier in the US to officially
offer the Nokia Lumia 920 to consumers, but there has been rumours for a
while now that the company will also be offering a flagship handset for
Verizon customers, and now a screen shot has appeared that is
apparently from the carriers internal system showing a number of Nokia
handsets.
One of these include a Nokia Lumia 928 which could be the Verizon version of the popular Lumia 920,
and based on previous rumours the handset would not look exactly like
the 920 and have a screen resolution of 1280 x 768. Not much else is
known about the device and it could easily be a faked screen shot that
can be seen via the link at the bottom of this article.
Early adopters have given the Windows Phone 8 platform positive
reviews and there are a growing number of big name applications being released
for users of WP8. In the coming weeks we should get to hear something
officially about new Nokia handsets being released onto the Verizon
network.
Do you plan to get a Nokia smartphone on Verizon this year?
