Nokia is probably busy pushing out its recently announced Lumia 2520
tablet globally. However, a new report suggests that the Finnish
manufacturer might unveil its next tablet, the alleged Lumia 2020, as
early as Q1 next year.
According to a report by Digitimes citing sources
familiar with the matter, Nokia has plans to expand its tablet portfolio
by launching a new tablet, the Lumia 2020, and that the company would
be targeting the mid-range tablet segment with it, while it targets the
high-end with the Lumia 2520.
Nokia announced its first Windows RT tablet, the Lumia 2520, at Nokia World in
October. The Nokia Lumia 2520 tablet runs Windows RT 8.1 and comes with a
10.1-inch full-HD IPS LCD display that boasts of enhanced sunlight
legibility and a Corning Gorilla Glass 2 screen.
Earlier reports
had suggested that Nokia might launch the rumoured Lumia 2020 at MWC 2014 alongside the Lumia 1820
Windows Phone.
Prolific tipster, @evleaks has already revealed that Nokia has codenamed Illusionist its second Windows RT tablet
sporting an 8-inch tablet.
The Nokia Lumia 2020 aka Illusionist is
thought to sport a similar design to the Lumia 2520 tablet, and that it
would come with a lower Lumia model number to differentiate it from the
larger 10.1-inch sibling. Further, the Nokia Lumia 2020 is said to be
powered by a Qualcomm processor, would run Windows RT 8.1, just like the
Lumia 2520 tablet and in addition would come with stylus support.
Earlier
speculation had pointed to a Lumia 2320 name for the more affordable
Illusionist tablet, similar to naming scheme of the two announced
phablets from the company, the Lumia 1320 and Lumia 1520.
