POSSIBLE water proof design

I honestly think these devices are feasible even if they're not likely. I'd appreciate some feedback on my mock spec sheets.
Also, I think it'd be a good idea for Microsoft to offer a Moto Xesque customization option where if you buy the phone from Microsoft you get to choose a color, dark or light aluminum, and then buy more accessories such as more backs or a Qi wireless charging pad.
And maybe to try and get rid of US carrier exclusivity Microsoft can offer deals with the phones instead of offering it on just one carrier. If you buy from AT&T you get a free Microsoft Band or from Verizon you get a small Windows tablet.

Pretty good looking. But i would call it Microsoft Lumia 16xx

I think that would be too confusing. I honestly believe Microsoft should avoid four digit numbers, as their line up could already be confusing to those who don't know how the numbers work.
4-Budget
5-Low-end
6-Low-mid
7-Mid
8-High-mid
9-Flagship

Keep all the flagships under the 9xx number, in my opinion.
