Nokia introduces its first Windows tablet, the Nokia Lumia 2520, running on Windows RT 8.1.
“It’s a complete package,” product manager Paul Bischof told Conversations. “It takes everything you’ve got in your desktop or laptop and crams all that into a device that’s only 8.9mm thick and weighs a little over a pound.”
True mobile companion
A true child of Nokia’s mobile heritage, the Lumia 2520 is made to support life on the go, designed for mobility, reliability, longevity and with a unique sense of style and colour. The Nokia Lumia 2520 is ideal for life on the move, with features that extend its usefulness out and about. The high definition 1080p, 10.1-inch screen is made using Gorilla Glass 2 for toughness, and has been made to give less reflection than other tablets in the marketplace, a superior brightness range to see your content in different lighting environments, as well as a wide-viewing angle, for sharing or presenting. A 4G LTE modem and WiFi ensure lightning fast communications wherever you are.
Paul explains that the components, including the punchy Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor were selected for flawless performance from the touch-screen OS, without soaking up the battery. “The system is designed to selectively cut down power consumption when it’s not needed,” he explains. While it’s running a full computer operating system, the Lumia 2520’s battery is capable of such feats as playing video for ten hours non-stop without a charge. The battery also offers a quick start with its ultra-fast charging time. It can go from zero to 80 per-cent charged in an hour. Alongside the Nokia Lumia 2520, we’re releasing the Nokia Power Keyboard, a natural companion for the new device. It offers a keyboard with a touchpad, of course, but also wraps right round the tablet to offer complete protection without needing a separate case. The Power Keyboard also contains an extra battery for up to five hours extra use, plus two USB ports, for whatever other accessories you wish to attach.
On the back, there’s a high quality 6.7-megapixel camera with ZEISS optics and an f1.9 aperture that delivers great low light performance. This is supported by two new apps from Nokia – Storyteller and Video Director, which will help you make the most of the media you capture and create. On the front, a secondary 2-megapixel camera allows for crystal clear video calls. We’ll be describing Storyteller and Video Director in more detail in separate posts.
The Windows RT 8.1 operating system offers a complete Microsoft Outlook and Office experience, preinstalled, at no extra cost. Also, from Nokia, you’ll find a new version of HERE Maps, making this the first tablet with a true offline mapping capability. There’s also Nokia Music onboard, for free streaming and offline Mixes.
Presented in red, cyan, white and black, the Nokia Lumia 2520 will initially be available for sale in the US, UK and Finland at an estimated price of USD 499 before local taxes and subsidies. It will be spreading to other markets shortly after.
