Lumia 950XL to launch: 3GB RAM, 20MP Pureview and 3400 mAH REMOVABLE battery

OnLeaks, a well know Twitter account has just shared 2 leaking images of the upcoming Lumia smartphone: 950XL. According to that, we got to know, the handset is about to sport a 3340 mAH battery. And no, 3340 mAH is not the main thing we want to mention here. If the information in this leak is right, Lumia 950XL battery will be a removable one.

Lumia 950XL

In a time when most of the recent smartphone flagships go with non-removable power, a traditional removable battery is pretty much appreciated. Personally speaking, I find removable battery much more convenient and favorable than its counterpart. And if I make a prediction, I would say removable battery will make the Lumia 950XL more attractive to interested users.

A bit about Lumia 950XL battery capacity. The Lumia 950XL battery has 3400 mAH. To make it easier for you to compare, the previous Lumia smartphone, 930, is doing quite well with 2420 mAH. In terms of some other recent flagships, the Galaxy Note 5 battery is 3000 mAH (and lasts up to 9 hours 11 minutes),  and LG G4 battery is 3000 mAH. So the Lumia 950XL battery can be considered above average.

Lumia 950XL release date and pricing

The Lumia 950XL release date is said to be today, October 6, 2015. Let’s wait until we hear any other official announcement from Microsoft. We expect to have finalized specs of the device soon. For now, some of the Lumia 950XL specs we spotted have made us very interested and curious: 5.7 inch, 2K display, Snapdragon 810 processor, USB Type C and 20MP Pureview camera. There is no hint yet about the Lumia 950XL RAM, but we bet it would be at least 3GB. Of course, the smartphone will run on Windows 10 Continuum.

Though Microsoft have not hinted anything about the Lumia 950XL price yet. But based on the Lumia 930 (which is being sold at PHP 20K), we would guess the Lumia 950XL price in Philippines won’t be less than PHP 25K.
