Recently, many rumors have surfaced about Nokia's upcoming Windows Phone 8 (WP8)-powered handset, Lumia 928. However, a recent report suggests that a Reddit member had the opportunity to see the rumored device in person.
Previous rumors hinted that the Nokia Lumia 928 will be lighter and thinner than the Lumia 920 and now Reddit member "VERTE10" claims that the Nokia Lumia 928 will have an edge-to-edge display, and the device will be relatively lighter and thinner than the Lumia 920.
VERTE10's statement and comments on Reddit:
"I just got to hold a 928
I'm here at work and a customer came by the store and was asking what all phones the 920 cases would fit on. He pulled out his phone and I immediately new [sic] what it was!
I almost flipped out when I saw it. He said I could check it out if I didn't take any pictures or remember the serial number. Guys it is amazing!! The screen is beautiful and it is noticeably lighter than the 920. I am so glad I held out on Verizon so that I can get that phone.
Ps. He said that I wouldn't have to wait long for it!!!!!!
He is a Verizon Ex in the city I live in.
It had the same finish as the 920 but the screen went all the way to the edge.
It was thinner and lighter than the 920. It was more square then round on the edges which I liked when I held it. The gentleman said his battery life was about the same as his 8x."
It may not be long before the Lumia 928, along with other high-profile WP8 devices, debuts on May 14. High-end smartphones like Sony Xperia Z, Samsung Galaxy S4, and HTC One have already taken over the heart of many smartphone enthusiasts and customers. We will have to wait and see if Nokia is able to repeat Lumia 920's success story.
