In a recent announcement, T-Mobile has revealed that it will be the "exclusive" US wireless carrier to offer Nokia's Lumia 810 Windows Phone 8-based handset, which is scheduled to be launched in the coming weeks.

With T-Mobile displaying a dummy unit of the Lumia 810 at the MobileCon event in San Diego on Tuesday, the specifications of the handset that came to light included an attractive 4.3-inch OLEG WVGA display; a 1.5GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor; an 8-megapixel backside camera; and a 1.2-megapixel front-facing camera.

The rear camera of the Nokia Lumia 810 comes with Carl Zeiss optics; and also includes some of the other camera features which Nokia has brought on to its devices, in order to distinguish them from the devices of its competitors. These camera features include a panorama mode and Group Shoot, which facilitates the reassembling of photos of a group clicked in a series of shots.

The Lumia 810 will be a comparatively much boxier handset than the flagship Lumia 920 which will be offered by AT&T; and will also have a bold and more agreesive design than its 920 counterpart.

To be available in two color options, black and cyan, the Nokia Lumia 810 will also boast some of the other standard features of the Nokia devices including Nokia Music, Nokia Maps, Nokia Transit, and the Nokia CityLens augmented reality app.
