Microsoft Lumia 650 with Windows 10 Mobile spotted in fresh renders

Microsoft’s purported budget yet premium Windows 10 totting phone, aka the Lumia 650 has been leaked in fresh renders. The Lumia 650 renders, as reported by Windows Central “are based on internal Microsoft slides for the phone.” The report adds that while the renders are not official, they are the closest to what the ‘final product’ would look like.

The Lumia 650 — codenamed Saana — has been subject to on and off rumours in the past. At one point of time there were even rumours that Microsoft was looking to shelve the project altogether. But, the Lumia 650 is indeed in the making, and is being designed for “companies looking for a low-cost, but capable Windows 10 Mobile solution,” adds the report. That the company is looking to pitch it for business-minded users is reflected from the purported looks of the phone which is a sharp departure from what Lumia phones have looked so far.

For one, the Lumia 650 looks slimmer than majority of Lumia phones out there. Secondly, it’ seen sporting metal frame. If the renders are to be gone by, the Lumia 650 is en route to become the most sophisticated looking Lumias that we have seen in a very long time. That being said, it must be remembered that the Lumia 650 is not going to be a flagship product of the company. The Lumia 950 and Lumia 950XL are expected to remain its top-of-the-line phones for quite some more time now.

As far as specifications are concerned, the alleged Lumia 650 is said to come with a 5-inch HD screen and a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 212 processor under the hood with 1GB of RAM and 8GB of internal memory (non-expandable). The phone is said to sport an 8-megapixel camera on the rear and a 5-megapixel camera on the front.

The dualSIM phone supports Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0, Bluetooth 4.1, NFC, HD Voice, and Wi-Fi calling. There’s no wireless charging though.
