What to expect from Nokia World tomorrow at Abu Dhabi

Nokia is heading to Abu Dhabi tomorrow morning for what’s likely its final farewell as a smartphone manufacturer. As Windows Phone further cements itself as the number three behind iOS and Android, Nokia is giving up its phone business to Microsoft in early 2014. That deal hasn’t fully closed yet, so Nokia is holding its own party in the desert heat of Abu Dhabi to unveil six new devices. Here’s what you should — and shouldn’t — expect from Nokia World tomorrow. The Verge will be attending Nokia World so stay tuned for in-depth coverage of Nokia’s latest announcements.

LUMIA 1520

Nokia’s Lumia 1520 has been rumored for weeks after The Verge revealed its "Bandit" codename in August. We’ve seen press renders, initial leaked photos, and even a full look at the device before its official unveiling. The Lumia 1520 will be one of the first Windows Phone devices with a 1080p display, ready just in time for Microsoft’s Update 3 for the OS. Nokia is expected to include a 6-inch display, 2GB of RAM, a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor, 32GB of storage, and a 20-megapixel camera.
