Nokia is planning a true PureView Windows Phone, The Verge has learned. Codenamed EOS, sources familiar with Nokia's plans have revealed that the device will include a similar sensor that's found on Nokia's 808 PureView handset. The upgraded sensor for Windows Phone means the EOS will be ranged as a high-end Lumia in the company's range of devices for 2013.

From what I see with the cost of Lumia 920 this will go for about 55-60k and only a few people will buy it, FAIL :/

By the time this mobile hits the street, Full HD display based mobile will become mainstream and so if Nokia decide to pack Lumia 920 with a 30-40MP sensor, price won't get past 40k. My only concern is, 920 weight ~190 gram. add a huge sensor and lenses and some random stuff required for photography, we are looking at a 300 gram mobile. Will people really sell out 40k for a mobile that looks ugly (bulge at the back), weights nearly half a kilo and has no optical zoom? Samsung can easily steal Nokia's loyal customers by introducing Galaxy Camera 2.0 with slimmer design and a meaningless 25MP sensor. Not to mention Android (don't understand why people goes WOW when they hear the name Android) & optical zoom.

I, too, have the same question. For a few of my friends, Mobiles running Android OS are only smartphones.

seriously the what was samsung thinking when they sold the galaxy camera? android and a camera? ..... it sells because of its branding i guess, otherwise in 20k you can get a decent micro four thirds from olympus .

I think the amount of megapixels is an overkill, but i think this will be a pretty good device from Nokia.

It is almost confirmed that Lumia 920's successor will have an aluminium body - Thinner + Lighter
Regarding FHD display, MS can release an update to add support for it.

For Indians, The device which is Bigger is the best device. There is no surprise how Galaxy Note II is selling like hot-cakes.
