Finnish mobile phone maker Nokia has plans to make an announcement on July 11, according to a press invitation sent out on Thursday and amidst widespread speculation in online media that it is about to launch a new flagship camera phone. An e-mailed press invitation to the event in New York featured the phrase "ZOOM.REINVENTED".
Technology blogs and websites have recently published pictures online purporting to show the new phone with a 41-megapixel photographic sensor.
Nokia has launched a succession of new phones in various price segments over the past month after first-quarter results showed a surprisingly steep drop in lower-end handset sales.
