All you need to know from Nokia World 2013
Nokia World 2013 is almost over and the main announcements have all been made. You've got the new Lumia 1520, Lumia 1320 and Lumia 2520 that offer unique new experiences for consumers. Windows Phone finally sees its first 6-inch smartphone, while Nokia attempts to tap into the Windows RT 8.1 market with its first Windows 8 tablet.
We live blogged the initial announcements, so be sure to head on over and check our coverage through the demonstrations. Nokia World was then a case of grabbing as many photos and hands-on footage as possible. There was a lot to cover (it was our largest day yet), but fear not if it all got a bit too much. In case you somehow managed to miss out on some of the stories, here's a quick run through:
