Nokia says with every purchase of Lumia 1020, you also get free 7GB of cloud storage. But that's not enough for camera enthusiasts. The original PureView 808 had built-in 16GB of ROM, plus expandable memory up to 32GB via a microSD card.

Nokia Lumia 1020 also supports wireless charging, but for that you need to purchase another back cover for a whooping value. Also the phone has a 2,000mAh Li Ion non removable battery.

The dedicated camera phone is powered by Windows Phone 8. The device seemed quite fast, when we were handed the device for a brief period of time. There's nothing special about WP8 as such. Nokia has not revealed the pricing of Lumia 1020.

Other highlighted connectivity options include: NFC, Wi-Fi, 3G, Bluetooth 3.0, USB 2.0 and A-GPS, amongst others.
