Redmond giant Microsoft may launch the rumoured Lumia 650 on February 1, if a new Windows Central report is to be gone by. The same report adds that Microsoft will announce the pricing and availability of the Lumia 650 on Feb 1, amid little fanfare and that it would be the last Lumia phone for the year, at least. Whether or not it would be the last Lumia phone eventually is yet to be seen.
According to the report, Microsoft would instead focus on its rumored 'Surface Phone' in 2016. As such, the Lumias will take a backseat. The company recently launched the Lumia 950 and Lumia 950XL flagship phones, and a third Lumia, aka the Lumia 550 which is a budget offering. The Lumia 650 is expected to be a lower mid-range phone for the business-oriented consumer and will run Windows 10 out-of-the-box.
It is said to come with a 5-inch HD screen and a Snapdragon 210 or 212 processor under the hood with 1GB of RAM. It is said to come with 8GB of internal memory. The phone is said to sport an 8-megapixel camera on the rear with LED flash and a 5-megapixel camera on the front. The dualSIM phone is said to support Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0, Bluetooth 4.1, NFC, HD Voice, and Wi-Fi calling. There's no wireless charging though.
Renders doing the rounds, suggest that the alleged Lumia 650 will look slimmer than majority of Lumia phones out there with a prominent metal frame.
