Nokia's Lumia 2020 tablet teases what could have been in new photo

Nokia was once a powerhouse when it came to the Windows platform. Before being purchased by Microsoft, the manufacturer was throwing out mobile devices like they were going out of fashion, but aside from the vast catalogue of Lumia handsets already in circulation, there were other devices that never saw the light of day. One of them being the Lumia 2020 tablet, which was rumored for release way back in 2013. This tablet has been spotted alongside other Nokia products in a new photo published to Baidu.

The image was shared by @Nokiba and was subsequently picked up by NokiaPowerUser. Interestingly, this new photo shows the cancelled tablet in the color green, which was one of a select few options used by Nokia at the time to differentiate its hardware from the competition. The Lumia 2020 was meant to sport an 8.3-inch 1080p display, stylus support, be powered by WinRT, Snapdragon 800 processor and 2GB of RAM.

There are a few other familiar handsets in the photo, but it's disappointing to see what we could have had if the Lumia 2020 made it to market.
