Nokia reportedly readying a new Lumia with a 5 MP front-facing camera, due later this year

Although the Microsoft acquisition of the Nokia handset division has legally wrapped, some news about what we tin expect from the new Microsoft department has come forward. This forenoon, the Verge is reporting that a new device – codenamed 'Superman' – is beingness prepped for a release later this yr and that information technology will feature a 5 MP front-facing camera.

'Superman' is described equally a mid-range phone by the Verge with a 4.7" display. It will coincide with two required Bone updates for Windows Telephone 8.ane, one over the summer and 1 afterward in the year. No other information about the device was revealed.

Microsoft Mobile concentrating on a loftier-end front facing camera is probably not likewise unexpected, peculiarly since Nokia has previously conquered the rear-camera market place with the Lumia 1020. With the rising of 'selfies' in pop-culture and the lack of attention by phone OEMs in that expanse, it seems ripe for Microsoft Mobile to push the feature forrard with new technology that exploits the trend.

Microsoft Mobile, alongside the remaining plans from Nokia, are also expected to release 'Goldfinger' for the holiday flavour, with numerous new apps to leverage the engineering science. That phone had been delayed internally due to some missing required Bone $.25, which are estimated to be completed later on this year.
