Renders based on “internal Microsoft slides” also suggest that the device will be available in matte black and matte white colour variants
Renders of the Lumia 650 based on “internal Microsoft slides” have appeared. According to Windows Central, the images are not official, but are “highly reflective of the final product.” The Lumia 650 is tipped to be positioned as a low-cost business device for companies. The device is expected to come with a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 212 processor clocked at 1.3GHz with an Adreno 304 GPU. The Lumia 650 may also come with a 5-inch 720p display, 1GB of RAM and 8GB of onboard storage which can be expanded via a microSD card. There may be an 8MP rear camera with a 5MP front camera. The device may also include support for Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0, dual-SIM configuration, Bluetooth 4.1, NFC, and Wi-Fi calling. The phone will most probably come with Windows 10 Mobile and be available in matte white and matte black colour variants, and judging by the renders, it may have a metallic frame.
It is possible that Microsoft may wait until the Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona, in February, to announce the device, like the company had announced the Lumia 640 and 640XL at the MWC this year. Microsoft usually refrains from announcing devices during the Consumer Electronic Show (CES) in Las Vegas in order to let its OEM partners showcase their devices. It is also possible that the company will announce the Lumia 850 alongside the Lumia 650. There have been a number of renders as well as leaked images of the Lumia 850 to suggest the same.
Microsoft launched the Lumia 550 in India last week and the phone will be available for purchase from December 23 for Rs. 9,399. The device comes with a 4.7-inch HD display, a 1.1Ghz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 210 SoC and 1GB of RAM. There is a 5MP camera located at the back of the device with a 2MP front camera. The phone runs Windows 10 Mobile and comes with a 2100mAh battery, which Microsoft says can deliver up to 16 hours of talktime.
