Rumored Lumia : According to OnLeaks, the French leaker purportedly found images of the at-one-time cancelled white Lumia 850. With the recent launch of the Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL,
it looks like there was another Lumia on the horizon for Microsoft. The
Lumia 850 was supposedly going to sport the same design features of
previous Lumias with curved edges, matte plastic, and camera reminiscent
of the Lumia 640 XL.
The Lumia 850 has what looks like metallic trim, a removable back and 3.5 mm headphone jack on the bottom of the device, and the dimensions are rumored to be 155.9 mm x 77.23 mm x 6.92 mm. Evleaks added on Twitter that the Lumia 850, or as he calls it, “Honjo”, also has a front-facing flash, gold trim, and a gold Microsoft logo on the back.
With all the problems surrounding carrier availability of the Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL,
it might be nice to have another mid-range Lumia option. OnLeaks
revealed that Lumia 850 was one of two phones that were cancelled at the
last minute by Satya Nadella. The Lumia 750
was also going to be release alongside the Lumia 550, Lumia 950, and
Lumia 950 XL. Based on his source, OnLeaks confirms that the Lumia 850
is still supposedly going to be released (translated from French by
