They added that it will come with a six-inch display, a quad-core Snapdragon processor and a 20 megapixel camera.
Rumors emerged that Nokia is planning a large handset to compete with the likes of the Samsung Galaxy Note earlier this month.
They followed reports that Microsoft will remove limitations on Windows Phone 8 that had meant 1080p displays and quad-core processors were not supported.
Microsoft’s GRD3 update is rumored to be arriving later this year, with support for 1080p and quad-core handsets.
According to those previous rumors, Nokia is planning to unveil the Bandit as early as September 26th.
Speaking to the Verge, the sources said that the device will be thin and light due it using a polycarbonate body. It will also likely to come with a slight bump to accommodate the 20 megapixel rear camera, similar to the 925.
The phone is reportedly being tested in the US now. That fits in with a late September unveil.
The news comes just one day after pictures emerged of a full size tablet Nokia is reportedly working on.
Previous rumors had suggested that Nokia will be unveiling both the Bandit and the tablet on the same day.
Unlike the Bandit, the tablet is rumored to run Windows RT.
