Verizon Wireless customers got a sneak peak at yet another high-end Windows Phone 8 device courtesy of noted leaker @evleaks, who released a couple of images of the Nokia Lumia 928.
The smartphone, formerly known as the Laser, is expected to release at the end of April. Lumia 928 is Verizon's version of the Nokia Lumia 920. Although the final specification list for the device remains unconfirmed, the handset will most likely be similar to the Lumia 920.
The leaked images were posted on the official Twitter account of @evleaks, a source known for accurate posts of leaked smartphone images. The leaked images show that Lumia 928 with a traditional polycarbonate case. Earlier reports speculated the smartphone would come with an aluminum case.
"The elongated flash and 4G LTE branding are the only visual cues that we're not looking at a black 920. We've heard from sources that the phone will have a new xenon flash, in addition to the 920's LED unit, and the picture would seem to back that up," The Verge reports.
The other specs include the same 1.5GHz dual-core processor, 32GB of storage, and 1GB of RAM as the Lumia 920. However, the Verizon model will be a little thinner and lighter at 10.2 millimeters at its thinnest point and 11.2mm at its thickest with a slightly curved back compared to the Limia 920's 10.7. The smartphone is likely to ditch the 920's LCD display for a 4.5-inch OLED one, and may support simultaneous voice and data over LTE.
