Nokia has launched its latest flagship smartphone - the Lumia 1020 in India. There is no official announcement yet on the price of the device, however, Nokia says they will reveal the price one day before it will be available in the market for sale i.e, October 11.


Specifications of Nokia Lumia 1020 :

• The Lumia 1020 combines the much talked about 41-megapixel 1/1.5 inch sensor along with a fast f/2.2 aperture and an optical image stabilization system that has proven to be quite amazing. The phone was globally unveiled on July 11.
• The phone retains its uni-body polycarbonate construction and the phone is available in yellow, white and black. 
• The Lumia 1020 houses a large 1/1.5” sensor, which is comparatively just a touch smaller than the 1/1.2” silicon chip found in the PureView 808. 
• The large sensor combined with the BackSide-Illuminated design will definitely help the Lumia 1020 push the boundaries of low light performance.
• The lens on the Lumia 1020 is made of 6 Zeiss floating elements. Most conventional camera phones use a single element inside their camera assemblies to cut costs.
• It has a dual-core 1.5 GHz Krait processor with the Adreno 225 GPU. 
• The Lumia 1020 does come with an increased amount of RAM (2GB), but what we feel a little apprehensive about is the 32GB of on-board storage with no possibility to increase it using a memory card.
• The Lumia 1020 comes preloaded with Nokia Music, Nokia Mix radio, the Here Maps suite, Nokia Smart camera and Nokia Rich Recording. 
• It runs on the Windows Phone 8 Amber update, which enables Bluetooth 4.0, double tap to unlock and a clock on the lock screen.
• Lumia 1020 comes with an option where users can go for a camera grip accessory which runs on a separate 1020 mAh battery, a tripod mount and a two stage camera button. The camera grip will be available for Rs. 7,500, the wireless charging shell for Rs. 3,200 and the charging pad will be available for Rs. 4,000.

 Nokia has been tight lipped about the Indian pricing due to the current fluctuation of the Rupee value, but says that it will be close to $800 which is approx. Rs.50,000 in Indian currency. The phone will be available from October 11 onwards in the Indian market.
