The company is busy at work on the successor to the popular N8 and say it will be arriving sometime next year. This news comes directly from the companies VP, Eric Bertman.

He also went on to say that Nokia would be releasing something a lot better than the N8 in 2012. No further details were given or what platform it would be running on, but if we had to hazard a guess, we’d say WP8. If it’s going to be the N8 successor then they will have to up the ante in the camera department. A 12MP was a big jump for Nokia this year, so by 2012, we assume they would shift to something higher, so may be jut fit a bigger sensor with the same megapixel count.
