And today Nokia tries to grab our attention with a teaser of its own. Spoiler alert &#8212; it doesn&#8217;t appear to be a high-end Lumia smartphone.<\/p>\n<p>On its blog, the Finnish manufacturer <a title=\"What\u2019s up at Nokia?\" href=\"http:\/\/conversations.nokia.com\/2013\/04\/22\/whats-up-at-nokia\" >posted a picture<\/a> which shows a new handset sporting physical keys. Likely the device runs the company&#8217;s low-end smartphone operating system aimed at emerging markets &#8212; Nokia Belle &#8212; and not Windows Phone 8. Microsoft is not keen on physical keyboard if current smartphones are of any indication.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;On Wednesday morning at\u00a07 AM GMT\u00a0we will be announcing something new, followed by a Q&amp;A session with Neil Broadley from our Mobile Phones team and a special guest&#8221;, says the Finnish manufacturer.<\/p>\n<p>From what I can tell, the device features a minimal design with rounded corners. Other than the yellow trim nothing screams outlandish here. Speculation is fun, but as Nokia says &#8220;you won\u2019t have to wait long to find out&#8221; the details on the new handset.<\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.betanews.com\/~ff\/bn?a=BC95HQMnpJE:hgZ0gCGi4V8:qj6IDK7rITs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/bn?d=qj6IDK7rITs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.betanews.com\/~ff\/bn?a=BC95HQMnpJE:hgZ0gCGi4V8:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/bn?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/bn\/~4\/BC95HQMnpJE\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Teasers are an effective way to get us all worked up over little or no specific details. &#8220;Is that a new design?&#8221; and &#8220;Who is this for?&#8221;, accompanied by the obligatory &#8220;What is this?&#8221;, are the sort of questions we ask ourselves when dealing with them.
