Nokia Unveils First 6 inch Smartphones in Nigeria
Nokia
has announced the introduction of its first 6-inch Lumia smartphones into the
Nigerian market; the Lumia 1520, Nokia’s top of the range Windows
Phone and the affordable Lumia 1320. To compliment the launch of both
devices, Nokia has kicked off the Storyteller Competition which would allow
people share inspirational stories of friendship and get the opportunity to win
an all expense paid trip to London.
With a 6 inch 1080p Full HD screen,
the Lumia 1520 has an enhanced start screen featuring an additional 3rd column
of live tiles, allowing people to get to their favourite apps faster with less
scrolling. It also features a 20MP PureView camera with optical image
stabilization, oversampling technology and zooming capabilities which can
easily capture and edit high quality pictures and tell better stories.
Speaking on both devices, Mr Olumide Balogun, Senior Manager,
Product Marketing, Nokia West and Central Africa noted that the introduction of
the Lumia 1520 and Lumia 1320 will revolutionize the Smart phone market and
boost Nokia’s competitive edge in the "phablet" category. He said
both devices are designed with the latest “Lumia Black” software which is an
update of the windows 8 operating system.
“Both devices come pre-installed with
business and productivity applications and a unique new photography application
called the Storyteller app which allows people tell stories of
places they’ve visited using pictures. The Storyteller App seamlessly merges
two Lumia signature experiences, PureView Imaging and HERE maps, to allow users
relive their photos in a new, dynamic and interactive way” he added.
To ensure that Nigerians get the best mobile communications
experience on the Lumia 1520, Nokia has tied the unveiling to the 2014 social
media week that will be hosted in Lagos alongside six other major cities in the
world. Nokia would be sponsoring the Food Photography slated for February 17,
2014 at the Terraculture, Victoria Island.
“This
would feature a night of eat, shoot, repeat to drive home how the Nokia Lumia
1520 and its more affordable cousin Nokia Lumia 1320 can enrich consumers’
communications experience. “We want to use this opportunity to
announce the launch and availability of our new flagship products, Mr Balogunsaid.
