Microsoft Lumia 650 render could be the rumored Saana smartphone

The Lumia 650 "Saana" may soon complement the upcoming Lumia 950 and 950 XL as the mid-range solution. The already revealed and more affordable Lumia 550 is one step below the 650 in terms of hardware features, so the 650 may be the "missing link" for the refreshed Lumia lineup with Windows 10.

Recently, a render of the Lumia Saana appeared online with signs pointing towards the 650 branding. Based on the leaked model name (RM-1152) and specifications, however, the hardware appears far too weak to be classified as a mainstream smartphone.

According to the source, the Lumia 650 is expected to have a 5-inch 720p display, Snapdragon 210 MSM8909 SoC, 4G LTE support, MicroSD slot, and a 2000 mAh battery based on the model number. Mid-range smartphones tend to carry a Snapdragon 400 SoC at the very least. It remains to be seen if the rendering is indeed the Lumia 650 or some other model as part of the Lumia family.

The Lumia 950 and 950 XL will launch sometime next month to kickoff Windows 10 for smartphones.
