Lumia 'selfie phone' to come in black and white, leaked photos hint

 

Nokia's new selfie phones, the Lumia 730 and 735, may come in black and white - if photos leaked online prove accurate, a tech site reported.

 

A report on TechRadar said the photos appeared on Chinese site Baidu Tieba, with watermarks suggesting the two variants.

 

"The Lumia 735 is reportedly the version with 4G LTE, while the 730 has dual-SIM 3G capabilities. They appear here in black and white, though the release versions will likely come in more colors," it said.

 

Both variants are expected to be in Microsoft's mid-range handsets.

 

Specs

 

TechRadar said the 730 is expected to have a 4.7-inch HD ClearBlack display, a quad-core Snapdragon chip, 1GB RAM, 6.7- and 5-megapixel cameras, and 8GB of storage.

 

However, it will have no dedicated hard camera button.

 

Selfie phone

 

A separate report on GSMArena.com said teasers released by Microsoft indicate the 730 could be the selfie phone Microsoft's Joe Belfiore hinted at.

 

It also said the Lumia 730 has already passed the FCC, with a likely price of $240. — Joel Locsin/TJD, GMA News
