The new phone, which could cost close to $ 1,000, is also expected to feature facial recognition for unlocking the phone and authenticating payments, wireless charging, improved cameras for augmented reality apps,
smarter image processing software and a virtual home button like Samsung's Galaxy Note 8.
With Amber, Nokia devices will be gaining boosts in
software that build upon Microsoft's own most recent update to Windows Phone 8, this including improved
image processing, the inclusion of Nokia
Smart Camera (previously only on the Nokia Lumia 925 and Lumia 1020), and Nokia Glance Screen.
