820 never caught up due to bad camera n bulk. 720 was interesting but many ppl stay away due to 512mb ram
Verizon is getting ready to release the Moto G at a 100$ price point starting January 8th. Don't know if that is going to be a permanent thing or not. Nokia needs to keep the 520/525 below 100$ to keep the low end. I have a 820 myself and am very happy with it. I bought a 520 to backup my 820, but don't plan on upgrading the 820 anytime soon. But I am looking to replace my backup 520 as my wife fell in love with it after I got a red backcover for it and she took it to replace her flip phone.
Sure, but the rest of the world doesn't necessarily operate like that. In Canada the major carriers are still selling the L920 around its original price.Your idea only sound legit, not that it will work, in US market.
Anywhere else especially where unit legal tender is a fraction of a dollar your idea of having a mid range is not gonna work.
In such a market, which is actually where Nokia actually makes their money, flagship needs to be a flagship. And those smart *** that want to get flagship spec with budget price would probably wait a few months till a price drop which can go up to 50%. For example 920 started of $650-750 but dropped to $400 within 6mo, 925 beat it and hit 400 within 4mo. 720 survived because it was launch together with the full price 925. And there is a significant number of the smart *** described early got the 820 instead of the new shinny downgraded 720. Either way, no point having a mid range as your describe.
And on the side note, Moto G's 195 price tag doesnt work outside of its limited release market. And Moto do not have to resource to ensure a global release with that price. I would advice stop making fantasy with it.

Yes, phones get old and drop price. But whats the margin?Sure, but the rest of the world doesn't necessarily operate like that. In Canada the major carriers are still selling the L920 around its original price.
Secondly, the price of the mid-end phone can also go down with time, let's think about launch periods. Q4 of a year tends to be a very good period for sales, why not make a full out push by tapping into as many different market-segments as possible? With a flagship you're restricted to the smaller audience, with a mid-end complimenting it (as has been the case before with L800/710 and L920/820), you've got a bigger net. The precedent for it is there with the L710 and to an extent L820.

1\ Which is why it is another bad example. Again, how many do they sell in Canada to justify a new model?
2\ Like you said, you are ok with a sub $350 price if they spec is decent, then why not just wait for a price drop in flagship? Spec check, price check, done deal.
3\ Why fill the Q4 market with low margin model that will harm your flagships and mid-hi 8 series? Did you not notice lower series always comes mid Q1 and ever think about why?
4\ Market share means nothing if you are making losses.
5\ Nokia already have too many models and all they do is just handicap one after another to justify the value.
6\ With 13series coming in from the top and 6series pushing from the bottom, 7 or 8 series, one will have to go or you will see they will be a handicap ver. of each other.
