Nokia’s New Lumia Phones Leaked

Days ahead of the launch of Nokia’s new Lumia phones, the 920 and the 820, in New York this Wednesday, someone using the Twitter account @evleaks has released images purporting to be of those very phones.

The pictures show the handsets, which look similar to Nokia’s earlier Lumia models, in a range of colours, including yellow and red.

According to the Telegraph, the larger of the two, the Lumia 920, has a 4.5-inch display and the smaller Lumia 820 has a 4.3-inch display but comes in more colours. It is also rumoured that the 920 will come with PureView, which, if true, could be a major selling point. The Nokia 808 PureView phone came with a whopping 41-megapixel camera, and it would have been an awesome little phone if not for the fact it also came with the Symbian operating system. But then again, this could all be a hoax!

It all comes down to Wednesday! Also, we might just get our hands on these devices pretty soon! So stay tuned!
