Nokia concludes ethics probe into Lumia fake video and photos
Share:
Nokia promptly apologized and explained their intention, which included actual video shot with the Lumia 920. Damage done to their widely anticipated presentation of the new Lumias, it was then announced that Nokia would begin an ethical inquiry to “understand what happened.”
In a written statement, Nokia concluded from their internal investigation that “poor judgment was exercised in the use of the [marketing] materials.” It was stated that “appropriate action” was taken, but no details were given.
We have since seen plenty of evidence that the camera on the Lumia 920 is quite capable, the rest of the specs are appear to be up to the task, and carrier support is looking good.
Now, all we need is confirmed pricing and availability and we will be off to the races as all the hot new devices come to market in time for the holidays.

I would want it in the same shade of Blue as the 900 though. The color patte for the 920's remind me of food condiments. Red=Ketchup, Yellow=Mustard, White=Salt, Gray&Black=Pepper.

Yep ; looking at the palette I do have feeling that it's a color mobile for my kid rather than me :)

What if, what if all of this is intentional? What if nokia did all of this on purpose so people could talk about it and be noticed again? Seems like a big advertising conspiracy :-P

Just shut up all those who say Nokia falsely advertised the 920. Where is criticism for Apple when they clearly said in the presentation that the iPhone 5 is the thinnest smartphone? Doesn't it classify as false advertising as even thinner phones are available in the market?

Nokia truly is the best smartphone maker, and the best innovator. It gives to its customers what it says. Lumia 920 is gonna beat the hell out of its competitors.

last week was apple Iphone Glory time. Monday Microsoft will probably announce that
the Windows phone 8 operating system has finally gone RTM. now it's time for the OEM's and the carriers to test the software and get it right for sale to the public. wow Microsoft is sure doing things in a nick in time schedule. this could hurt them
