We are less than a week away from Nokia’s press event that will reveal the company’s upcoming smartphone with a 41-megapixel camera. The handset, which is code-named EOS, was reportedly set to launch as the Lumia 1020. According to new information from @evleaks, however, it will now be released as the Lumia 909. The naming scheme makes sense because the 909 is the successor to Nokia’s earlier 41-megapixel smartphone, the Symbian-powered Nokia 808 PureView. The latest rumors suggest the phone will include a polycarbonate case and a 4.5-inch display with 720p resolution, and leaked images previously revealed that the Lumia 909 will be available on AT&T. Nokia will announce the smartphone at a press conference in New York City on July 11th and BGR will be on hand reporting live.
