Nokia 'Bandit' is a high-end 6-inch Windows Phone coming this year

Even more sources are now claiming that Nokia's 6-inch Windows Phone is coming soon.
Codenamed "Bandit," the device will have a 1080p display and a quad-core Snapdragon processor.

Additionally, the phone will have a 20MP camera that will force the device to a have a small hump (just like the Lumia 925).

Sources say the Bandit is "thin and lightweight, and includes a polycarbonate body."

The device should be the first of many 1080p devices, which Microsoft is soon to increase support for.

Strange move by Nokia to go with a Windows phone which has only found marginal success if even that.
