Microsoft Officially Launches Lumia 650: Windows 10 Mobile for Under $200
#1
Redmond has just launched its latest W10M device

Microsoft has just released the Lumia 650, its latest Windows 10 Mobile device that comes with a very appealing price and is specifically built for businesses.

First and foremost, the Lumia 650 sports a 5-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 1280x720 pixels and Gorilla Glass 3 protection. It’s powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 212 quad-core processor clocked at 1300 MHz, and it features 1 GB of RAM, enough to run Windows 10 Mobile at full power.

The device comes with only 16 GB of internal storage, but microSD card support is also being offered, so you can expand capacity up to 200 GB.

Additionally, Microsoft installed an 8-megapixel primary camera with autofocus, 2x digital zoom, sensor size of ¼ inches and LED flash. The secondary camera is a 5-megapixel unit with wide angle for selfies and video resolution of 1280x720 pixels.

Removable battery, very low weight

Other than that, the device comes with a 2,000 mAh battery that should easily get you through the day, but it seems to lack some important features for Windows 10 Mobile, including support for Continuum and Windows Hello.

Lumia 650 is very light at only 122 grams, and Microsoft says it focused specifically on the design of the phone to make it very eye-appealing.

“It’s by far our most beautiful screen ever at this price point. Lumia 650 also features a highly polished, diamond cut and anodized aluminum frame, giving it an unparalleled and premium feel. Importantly, we didn’t sacrifice the removable battery and expandable storage, something we know our customers enjoy having,” it explains.

Microsoft adds that pricing is the thing that sets this device apart, as it’ll be available in select European markets beginning February 18 for $199 (€180). It’ll be offered in matte black and matte white.

Redmond hasn’t mentioned the Windows 10 Mobile version that Lumia 650 will launch with, but it’ll be interesting to see if the operating system could debut for everyone else by the time this device hits the market.

Update: check out the official Lumia 650 hands-on video published by Microsoft France on YouTube.
