London: Powered with Microsoft windows software, Nokia Lumia 920 will be start selling in November this year in European countries, a report said on Friday.
Nokia did not disclose the price or roll-out dates of the Lumia 920 and smaller Lumia 820 models – which are seen crucial for its turnaround efforts – when it unveiled the models earlier this week.
An executive at an eastern European operator said he would start sales of the Lumia 920 in the second half of November, adding larger countries would receive the model earlier that month, Reuters reports.
A source at a Nordic operator told the news agency that sales at his carrier would start in mid to late November.
A Nokia spokesman declined to comment on Friday on when sales would start.
The new Nokia Lumia 820 and 920 are part of the Finnish-based company’s strategy of offering “an alternative to the faceless black and grey monoblocs that you see out there,” said Nokia president and chief executive Stephen Elop at a New York launch event.
“This is Lumia, the world’s most innovative smartphone,” Elop said.
Microsoft chief executive Steve Ballmer also appeared at the event, which offered no specifics on launch dates or prices in various markets.
