Microsoft Lumia 550 budget phone with LTE leaked Online
The Microsoft Lumia 550 has cropped up in a Swiss store for CHF 114 ($117/€104) and it could become the first of the 5-series to support LTE.If you're getting excited about the upcoming Windows Phone flagship from Microsoft you probably don't want to hear about another mid-ranger, but here it is.
Back in May, a 4.7-inch Microsoft Lumia handset with the model number RM-1127 was discovered on the Zauba website that tracks imports and exports into and out of India. Two variants of the phone were eventually discovered, one with a single SIM slot and the other with dual SIM capabilities (RM-1128). Keeping with the premise that this is a low to mid-range model, it appears to be the Microsoft Lumia 550. That model has just been leaked out of a database belonging to a Microsoft distributor
Coming to hardware, Specs for the phone (RM-1127 and RM-1128, probably the single and dual-SIM versions) show a Snapdragon 210 chipset (quad A53 at 1.1GHz plus Adreno 304) and a 4.7" screen with 720 x 1,280px resolution. The phone is listed with 8GB of storage and will launch with Windows 10 Mobile.
GFX Benchmark also detected a 5MP/720p main camera and 1.2MP/720p selfie camera. We may be looking at 1GB of RAM though GFX reported only half that. Leaked specs of the 550 show 1GB RAM, but also a 5" 540 x 960px screen.
Microsoft is holding an event on October 6 in New York, where it is widely expected to take wraps off two new smartphones, the Lumia 950 and the Lumia 950XL along with the new Surface Pro 4 tablet and the next-gen Microsoft Band. While everyone is excited about the forthcoming Windows Phone flagships, a budget Lumia 550 with 4.7-inch HD screen has just surfaced.
As these are just leaked specifications, take this with a grain of salt. If there at all there is any truth in this leak, we expect more details to pour in.
Specifications
- 4.7-inch, 720p display
- Quad-core Snapdragon 210 processor
- 5 MP rear camera
- 1.2 MP front camera
- 1 GB RAM
- 8 GB Internal storage
