Verizon Lumia 735 spotted at the FCC with Microsoft branding
Microsoft unveiled the Lumia 735 back in September 2014, but so far, the handset has yet to be launched in the United States despite numerous rumors that pointed towards an US launch. A recent discovery made in the FCC database reveals that Verizon might soon launch the Windows Phone handset on its network, with Microsoft's branding replacing the Nokia logo that is present on the international version of the Lumia 735.
At the moment, it's unknown if the Verizon version of the handset will launch with any significant hardware differences compared to the international version. In other countries, the Microsoft Lumia 735 comes with hardware specifications such as a 4.7inch OLED display running a resolution of 720 by 1280 (HD) pixels, a quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor clocked at 1.2GHz, 1GB of RAM, 8GB of internal storage space, a microSD card slot, a 6.7MP primary shooter with ZEISS lens and an aperture of f/1.9, and a 5MP front-facing shooter with an aperture of f/2.4. In other words, the Lumia 735 is a mid-range handset that might appeal to selfie smartphone fans on a tight budget.
Back in April, Microsoft announced that the Lumia 735 will get Windows 8.1 Update 2, but it's unclear if the Verizon version of the handset will come with the latest WP update out of the box.
