Nokia announce the Lumia 930

Today at the Microsoft event in San Francisco, Stephen Elop took to the stage and has announced a brand new Lumia flagship device. It runs on the new Windows Phone 8.1 platform and is known as the Lumia 930.

This is the device we hoped to see back at MWC but, due to it running the new OS, we had to wait for the official unveiling.

Specifications include a 5 inch 1080p display, a 20 megapixel PureView camera with dual-LED flash on the back, and the brand new OS from Microsoft. The new version of the OS has new enhancements such as the background icon wallpapers,  a “Swype-like” keyboard plus “Cortana” which is the new voice assistant coming to the OS. However, it will not be in the UK at launch

Other specs include a 2.2Ghz Quad-Core Snapdragon 800 processor, 32GB of storage, 2GB RAM and a 2420mAh battery.

The Lumia 930 is due to launch in June this year but we have no word from any networks yet who will be taking this device once it goes on sale.
