Nokia may skip CES and focus on MWC

0. phoneArena posted on 18 Dec 2012, 10:40

New rumors have started to circulate that Nokia will skip the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas this coming January, and instead focus the company's energies on Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona in February. The reasoning behind the move isn't completely clear, but as always, there is some speculation as to why Nokia has chosen this route...

Agreed!

Don't forget: CES is where the 808 PureView was announced and stole the show!

I think it's a good move if they're indeed planning something big.
CES is based on consumer products in general, yes it is big for mobile phones too, but MWC is based solely on mobile phones which, i think, is a better platform to release a phone.

i hope they release a new lumia even more refined than the 920, with less vesels and bigger screen real state AND on-screen WP buttoms, 1080p wide angle front camera, and a slow motion capable pureview camera with 16mp at minimum, why not a quad core beast and 2gb ram too? and a battery in the same class as motorola maxx's phones

I hope it is because they are polishing up their product!! The 920 and 8XX series are great, but to really be successful in the US market Nokia needs to have a strong follow up in May/June to follow up on the good PR they have received. Obviously, Nokia needs to regain their worldwide market back so I understand going to MWC over CES. As a matter of a fact, one can argue it is more important then the US market for them.

But since I am in the US market and have decided to wait until I see what is coming in the 2nd Generation of WP 8, I want a strong follow up.....

it would not surprise me if Nokia is not at CES. because it is expensive to set up a show there and Nokia. and Nokia is more into mobile devices which WBC is all about. I predict that is where Nokia will reveal it's Windows RTTablet computer and New Nokia Smart phones. I hope they drop that Lumia series Name. a lot of People are aware of the luminati group and their Danger to Mankind. If I were a manufacturer I would not INFER EVEN KNOWING THEM because sooner or later their plans will be defeated.
