First Nokia Lumia Tablet Unveiled, Runs Windows RT

Nokia introduced us to a fistful of new phones on Monday but the company also introduced its first ever Lumia tablet. Dubbed the Lumia 2520, the tablet is a 10.1-inch device with a 1080p screen. Though it's the second 1080p device announced today (the other being the Lumia 1520), the 2520 is actually a Windows RT 8.1 device. Interesting, while Microsoft has dropped the 'RT' branding, Nokia still uses it in its blog post about the 2520.

Specs-wise, you're looking at a 10.1-inch 1080p full HD (1920×1080) AHIPS Capacitive Multi-Touch Display,The 2520 packs a quad-core Snapdragon 800, Gorilla Glass 2, 2 GB of RAM, 32 GB of storage (with micro SD up to 32 GB), a 6.7-megapixel camera with a 2-megapixel front-facing camera, NFC, LTE, WiFI, Windows RT 8.1, and an 8000 mAh battery.

The Lumia 2520 will be available in red, cyan, white and black and will launch in the USA, the UK and Finland first. Pricing for the US is $499 before tax. No word on pricing for markets outside the US or release dates, but we'll keep you posted.
