Nokia Pure View Mobile World Congress teaser appears

Nokia has released its first teaser video leading up to the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, hinting at a new camera-centric announcement. "Get ready to capture a pure view," the teaser reads before flashing February 27, the first day of the trade show, on the screen.

While it’s not clear what Nokia plans to announce, it will almost certainly have something to do with snapping a picture on your smartphone. The teaser video shows a series of snow-covered vistas followed by short one-liners such as "pure detail," "pure depth" and "pure definition" followed by the message about capturing a "pure view".

Some critics are guessing Nokia will be bringing 12MP cameras to its Windows Phone this year such as a rumored Lumia 910. Another possibility is that the announcement will bring new high definition video capability to upcoming Nokia devices.

Nokia has produced smartphones with excellent cameras in the past. Nokia’s Symbian-based N8, released in 2010, was widely acclaimed for its 12MP camera with a Carl Zeiss lens and Xenon flash.

Nokia says it will be releasing updates about the company’s Pure View plans on its Twitter account during MWC. The fun starts Monday.
