Nokia may have agreed last year to sell its devices and services business to Microsoft, but that certainly hasn’t stopped the vendor from building and launching a wide range of new devices while it waits for the deal to be finalized. According to a new leak, the company’s next launch will be a sleek new smartphone coming to Verizon Wireless in the near future. Engadget on Wednesday evening discovered a Verizon test site page that was home to the all new Nokia Lumia Icon, a Windows Phone 8 handset with what appears to be a fairly large HD display. Stated specs include a 20-megapixel camera and a 2,420 mAh battery with support for wireless charging, but the rest is a mystery — at least for the next few days until Verizon announces the phone. The test page on Verizon’s site has been taken down.
