And due to the massive camera hump and being metal, there is no Qi wireless charging. The bottom features a micro-USB port, and the 3.5mm headphone jack is placed at the top. On the opposite side is a port door for a microSD card and nano SIM tray. The buttons on the side include volume up and down rockers, power, and a dedicated camera button. The feel in the hand is fantastic, and while it is not light, it is not too heavy, either. The body of the phone is a gray metal although the bottom is polycarbonate likely for the radio antennas. The overall design of the phone is very familiar, and it looks like a cross between the Lumia 1020 and Lumia 925. Although we cannot show you the security markings, it does say 'Microsoft Mobile' across the device, which demonstrates how closely Nokia and Microsoft were working on this technology. The McLaren prototype in our possession is considered the final build and we have been told it was one of the few versions reserved for Microsoft employees during its development. We'll take a look at all of those rumors, but first, let's break down the hardware.

The decision sealed the fate of Windows Phone as there would not be another flagship device from the Nokia/Microsoft portfolio until November 2015. Unfortunately, the McLaren project was nixed in July 2014 a mere four months before its launch. We also documented internal reports [of exploding Live Tiles dubbed MixView that had a striking resemblance to earlier UI designs in the Zune music software. McLaren supposedly utilized hardware sensors to enable you to manipulate things on-screen through gestures, and we saw early signs of this with Nokia Glance using proximity sensors. Back then, the secret phone project went by the name Goldfinger, but at some point, it was changed to McLaren during development. Rumors of a Nokia phone featuring 3D Touch navigation and gesture support go back to November 2013.
