Looks like aluminum body to me from the official Nokia pic.
It will miss the event on the 14th because it was never intended to be there. May 14th has been speculation since day one. But the 928 is a U.S. only phone. Nokia and certainly not Verizon are going to announce a U.S. phone in London.
Global Lumia phones are typically xx0. They always end in zero. When they end in a different number they are typically carrier exclusive!
Look at all the public photos officially from Nokia. The Verizon branding is nowhere to be found. However, the Phone tile on the home screen clearly says Verizon Wireless. That means that they did not remove the branding in the image to try and hide carrier information. There is a reason that the Verizon branding is missing in the images and my guess is that Verizon is not the only carrier with the rights to this handset.
Tom warren reported on twitter an hour ago its being delayed until later this month...
Nokia Lumia 928 Spotted at Private Nokia Concert
All the commentary about this event has been about the video capabilities, but from the reports elsewhere with the specs of the mic suggest it will have distortion free recording up to 140db it seems this staged event will probably be showing off the low-light video and audio capabilities.
I am coming from android and was already looking forward to this phone. If they have made the ultimate concert device that is even better. I'm not as familiar if the 920 has same tech in mic department if anyone can clarify. I read that the HTC One had some awesome mic technology they got from Nokia but now they have lost a court case and can only use the stock they have for the mic and will have to install a lesser mic once that runs out.
Good luck with that. Really. Hopefully you'll get a variant, but the 928 will be exclusive.Yeah...cos its global....
Yeah.... Um... I know he gets some inside info, but I think he's off on this.Tom warren reported on twitter an hour ago its being delayed until later this month...
I don't think so. I'm thinking announce tomorrow. They can't be having these sneak peeks from Nokia this far in advance, and expect it to keep momentum.What really changes, we can already assume May 23rd, so that is the end of the month... Still announced tomorrow IMO. Unless someone like TC says otherwise...
I guess I was onto something. :wink: This just popped up on wmpoweruser

The newer pictures do NOT look like the shell is aluminum. Looks like Polycarbonate to me. I guess we'll find out soon enough.
