The sand dune teaser image above from a Tweet a few weeks ago has now been confirmed by Nokia as Abu Dhabi, the location for its Oct. 22 Nokia World event.
Aside from naming the city, details are sparse but it's likely the rumored 6-inch screened Lumia 1520 will be unveiled.
The phablet will be the first from the Finnish firm, along with the first to reportedly hold a full HD display and quad-core processor.
The 1520 would also be the first release under new Microsoft ownership which may be hinted at with the hashtag below stating "wayforward."
Tablets also on the horizon?
A Nokia tablet codenamed "Sirius" is also making the rumor rounds with details claiming the tablet will boast a 10.1-inch Full HD IPS display, 2GB of RAM, up to 10 hours of battery life and will come with 32GB of native storage expandable via microSD.
Perhaps we'll see the Sirius join the Lumia 1520 in the world event announcements - it sounds like a long shot, but it would make sense to unveil a tablet since it's also a first from the company.
