Nokia’s very first Windows Phone devices: W7 and W8. At present, Nokia has only one working Windows Phone prototype. Currently, 3 new handsets are planned – Nokia W7, comes with better (WVGA) display, Qualcomm QSD8250 Chipset, and an 8 mega pixel auto focus camera. Nokia’s is pushing for a late 2011 launch, but it’s very likely that the release may slip to Q1 2012.
Nokia W8 – a new Windows Phone imaging flagship, scheduled for Q2 2012. The goal is to make W8 the most powerful Windows Phone at the time of launch. Nokia W8 will keep the ideology of the N8′s design.
Touch screen QWERTY candy bar – along the lines of E71-E6. The E71 line is one of Nokia’s more popular, and the company wants to bring this form factor to Windows Phone. The new WP device will have a metal body, a touch screen, and a QWERTY keyboard. There’s no actual design yet. Nokia is working on some service for corporate users that should become the unique selling point for this device, but it’s unclear what this service can be. The phone is scheduled for April/May 2012, and the planned retail price should be around 350EUR.
Cheap touch screen. This model is being developed to become the cheapest WP offering. Most likely, the specs will be similar to the ones of Nokia W7, but made with cheaper materials, a simpler camera solution etc; this phone should make it to market in early 2012.
For 2012, Nokia plans include 12 more Windows Phone devices, for a total of 16 models. Nokia is currently carefully exploring Android products, and if sales of Nokia WP handsets fail to take off, they might still switch to Android.
