Another low-end WP8, Nokia Lumia Flame?

I thought I had already written about this but I mistook the mid Nokia Zeal for the Nokia Flame.

The Nokia Lumia Flame appears to a low end phone, something TheVerge suspects to be a replacement for the Nokia Lumia 710.

The Flame is said to have 1GHz Dual Core, 5MP camera, 4GB storage, 512MB RAM. Identical to the Nokia Zeal, also with 4″ screen except half the storage.

Both Nokia Lumia 710 and 800 whilst priced differently had identical processing power (different on design/camera). You might say the same about the 900 too (bigger screen, compass, front camera).

The new WP8 devices seem to have more clear cut differences with the top end device with the 920 edging out on Dual Core 1.5GHz S4 chips, 1GB RAM and having actual distinct pieces of interesting technology such as PureMotion HD+, Wireless charging and PureView 2 with floating lens.

Hopefully the low end devices will be priced adequately. At the moment we have heard that this is working for the 610. Price over total features/total user experience was why my housemate got a 610 over an Ace and BlackBerry.

Cheers rishabh and viipottaja for the tip!
