MyNokiaBlog have posted some details of the rumoured upcoming Nokia EOS, the 41 megapixel Windows Phone 8 monster device, shared with them by ?a source familiar with Nokia?s plans.?

The specs include:

  • Quad Core processor
  • 41Mp, OIS, LED, Xenon
  • +/- Variable Aperture
  • FM Transmitter,
  • Amoled 1280 x 768 screen
  • 2000 Mah battery
  • detailed camera interface

Sounds like a dream device, but MNB?s source notes that Nokia is having some difficulty with power consumption with the Quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor, and the device may end up shipping with a dual-core processor for that reason.

Of note is that the 41 megapixel camera may have a Variable Aperture lens (like the Nokia N86), a more detailed camera UI, FM Transmitter, Expandable Micro SD slot and possibly a Micro HDMI out port, meaning Nokia would be integrating all of the old technologies Symbian fans took for granted in their flagships.

The handset is said to be an AT&T exclusive for 1-3 months, after which it will roll-out further afield.

In fact the specs are almost too good to be true, making us rather suspicious, but given the competition these days it is almost exactly what Nokia needs to step up to the plate in 2013.

Amoled 1280 x 768 screen

On that, I am hoping for the 1080p display

Didn't they say in an article that WP8 doesnt support 1080 yet? But they also said it doesn't support Quad-Core yet... Weird.

Depending on when this rumored device comes out that support can be added, or actually as far as the res goes I'm sure the OS already supports 1080p but they have it limited to 720/768p for now. The same could be the case for quad core support since we're talking about the NT core which should support more cores with very little effort.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Edifier's popular R1280Ts bookshelf speaker can be a nice upgrade for your PC desktop audio by Sayan Sen Yesterday we covered a very nice discount on Sony's high-resolution SS-CS5M2 speakers, which are currently on sale for just $178. It packs the rather rare super tweeter that offers an additional level of clarity and "airy"-ness which a tweeter cannot provide. It's a passive speaker though which means it will require external amplification, which will cost extra. Let's say though that you have a budget of under $150 but still want a decent-sounding speaker that's active. The Edifier 1280Ts can help in this regard, as the unit is currently at a decent price of $130 (purchase link under the specs table down below). While you will not get deep sub-bass from the 1280Ts, you should get clearer vocals and highs like cymbals than a cheaper satellite-based 2.1 system. Obviously the soundstage and imaging will also improve due to the better reproduction of highs. As mentioned above, the Edifier R1280Ts is active and so does not need a separate amplifier, as it's a powered system with its own amplification. A great thing about this model is that you can add a separate active subwoofer to it too using the "sub out" option, which essentially acts like an LFE. This way, you can add in the missing deep bass. The technical specifications of the Edifier R1280Ts are given in the table below: Specification Value Total Output Power 42W RMS (21W + 21W) Driver Units 4-inch mid-range/bass driver + 0.5-inch silk diaphragm treble driver Frequency Response 52Hz – 20kHz Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) ≥85dBA Input Sensitivity Line In1: R/L: 500±50mV Line In2: R/L: 700±50mV Inputs Dual RCA inputs Outputs Sub Out port for external subwoofer Get it at the link below: Edifier R1280Ts Powered Bookshelf Speakers - 2.0 Stereo Active Near Field Monitors with Subwoofer Line Out: $129.99 (Sold by Edifier Online Store, Shipped by Amazon US) This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Appreciate the focus on UI performance, but this is going the wrong way. Instead of optimizing performance, coding to lower latency, etc. this is just throwing horsepower. This is lazy.
    • I agree, but that's the popular online opinion about them, so I followed it. I do think they have their point, no matter how combative they sound most of the time.
    • M$ can bring whatever the hell it wants, and then guess what's not installed in my Mac.
