We’re gearing up to the live Press Conference of the hot new smartphone from Nokia, the Lumia 928 which will officially be launched at an exclusive London venue in approximately 20 minutes.
We’ll keep you informed of details from conference throughout the morning and will link directly to the webcast in full on completion. To be honest, the spec and details of this handset are now well known but just in case you’re not aware, I can tell you that it’s very similar to the Lumia 920 but is slightly lighter in weight. It features an 8.7 MP camera with wide angle Carl Zeiss lens as well as a powerful Xenon flash and 1.5 GHz dual core processor. It’s all Windows inside, powered by Windows Phone 8 and it’s available in white or black from Thursday this week (16th May) at Verizon Wireless stores.
