Nokia Lumia 730 Release Date Pegged For August
We’ve had the Lumia 930 and Lumia 530, so following on with this new line of succession it’s not exactly surprising to learn that a Nokia Lumia 730 is also on the way as a revamp of the mid-range Lumia 720.
The word comes via NokiaPowerUser, which has heard from its sources that two variants of the Lumia 730 will arrive in August. Each will have a 720p display, but one model will use a 4.7in panel while the other is a full 5in. Both variants will use a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor with an Adreno 305 GPU.
Allegedly, the smaller model is the rumoured “Selfie” phone previously rumoured as the “Superman” and will use a 5MP front facing camera and possibly an 8MP sensor on the back. While August has been suggested for the launch, this is expected to be a carrier exclusive for US network Verizon at first, with the phone hitting other markets later.
The 5in model is being pegged as a possible “Mini 930” as much as a 730 successor (although we think that’s kinda unlikely). This one will feature a 13MP “advanced rear camera module” and there appear to be multiple variants (likely for different regions/carriers) designated RM-983, RM-984, and RM-985.
With these handsets the release date is a little more specific as the source is saying the end of August in the third or fourth week of the month. However, once again this will land as a US exclusive first tied to AT&T but it’s implied it will definitely get a global rollout thereafter.
The handsets will also run Windows Phone 8.1 GDR1 from the get-go, meaning Cortana, Folders and a bunch of other new features will be included.
