It wasn’t too long ago that we caught a glimpse of the alleged Lumia 1030 which goes by the model number RM-1052. Well thanks to new photos that have surfaced, we now have additional photos of the handset which compares it against the iPhone 6. Given that the iPhone 6 was launched not too long ago, we can only assume that these photos are relatively new.
Now the photos don’t really tell us anything new, at least nothing new from what we’ve seen previously, however it does give us an idea of its thickness and size. The iPhone 6 has a 4.7-inch display but the Lumia 1030 looks a little bit bigger. The thickness of the handset also appears to be greater on the Lumia 1030 when compared side by side.
That being said, a recent report has revealed that the Lumia 1030 is actually the cancelled Nokia McLaren handset, meaning that there is a good chance that the photos we are looking at could be early prototypes as opposed to an actual handset that is about to be released in the near future.
For those unfamiliar, McLaren is a codename given to an upcoming handset by Nokia. However it was later rumored that the phone had been cancelled by Microsoft for whatever reason, and that these photos are simply the remnants of the project.
