Moreover, it sports\u00a0an Iris scanner, a USB Type-C port and 3,300mAh battery equipped with Qualcomm QuickCharge support and Qi wireless charging. Besides, a\u00a020 mega-pixe PureView camera with triple-LED flash and a 5 mega-pixel front-facing shooter will be on-board as well. And of course, the handset will run on Windows 10 Continuum. Additionally, phone users can connect 950XL to a full-size\u00a0monitor through a dedicated dock. That sounds great!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/15\/09\/lumia-family-details\/-728x\/gsmarena_004.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"728\" height=\"409\" \/><\/p><div style=\"float: none; display: block; margin: 0 -10px; text-align: center;\"><!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_1 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"7528541080\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_2 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"2964262507\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<\/div><\/p>\n<p>In terms of Microsoft Lumia 950 specs, it is smaller with a\u00a05.2-inch screen but still beautiful with Quad HD resolution. The machine is powered by a\u00a0Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 chipset and 3,000mAh battery, less than its sibling Lumia 950XL. Apart from those differences, other Lumia 950 specs match Lumia 950XL ones.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/15\/09\/lumia-family-details\/-728x\/gsmarena_003.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"728\" height=\"409\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Finally, it is\u00a0Microsoft Lumia 550\u00a0which will come as an affordable Windows 10 phone. Lumia 550 specs include a 5-inch HD display, a\u00a0Qualcomm Snapdragon 1GHz quad-core chip (still unknown), 1GB RAM, and 8GB of expandable storage. On the other hand, there are a\u00a05MP main cam with LED flash\u00a0and\u00a02MP secondary snapper, and 1,905mAh battery.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/15\/09\/lumia-family-details\/-728x\/gsmarena_002.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"728\" height=\"409\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Well, they all seem great\u00a0in terms of both specs and design. Nevertheless, we notice that the phablet Lumia 950XL may cause some worries since it is run by Snapdragon 810 chip, which is quite &#8220;famous&#8221; for heating issues. Anyhow, we think Microsoft has been aware of that and found a good way to deal with it.<\/p>\n<p>To recap, we are looking forward to\u00a0Microsoft Lumia 950, Lumia 950 XL, and Lumia 550 which are going to be introduced along with Microsoft Band 2 and Microsoft Surface Pro 4 in New York City on October 6, 2015.
