Sure, they may look a similar, but are they really the identical? Inside that smooth, shapely polycarbonate shell lies internals which can be actually significantly different between these two. How different? Well, the fellow at the left, the newly-unveiled Lumia 800 , has a 1.4GHz Qualcomm processor paired with 512MB of RAM and 16GB of storage. The man at the right? That is the ill-fated N9 , and it packs a 1GHz TI OMAP chip with 1GB of RAM and as much as 64GB of storage. Contained in the chart below lies the ideas you will want, and the deltas you crave.
