Some website rumored it to be more expensive than IPhone 6 or Samsung S6 without the latest hardware (not snapdragon 820).

Will probably reach our shore by December.

well, leaked... but the phones are in protective casing. can't really see a lot.

but what is confirmed: USB Type-C, 3 LED for 950XL...

and probably to be announced only late September or October... wow... that's kinda late for phone that is equipped with Snapdragon 810.

USB type-C..seems phones nowadays come out iwth type-c... hope to hear the official news soon.

If you've been wanting to see the two high-end Windows phones Microsoft has been developing, then you don't have to wait until the official launch. Evleaks has posted the renders for both devices on Twitter: the larger, cyan one with a 5.7-inch screen is known as codename Cityman, while the black phone with a 5.2-inch screen is Talkman. They're expected to have Quad HD displays, 3GB of RAM, 32GB of internal storage and 5-megapixel front shooters. Cityman might be powered by an eight-core chip, while its smaller sibling might be equipped with a six-core processor.
According to The Verge, they might also support USB Type-C as well as Qi wireless charging. Evleaks tweeted out the renders as a response to another image showing a Cityman connected to a peripheral that will allow it to support Microsoft's new Continuum feature. Based on what we've seen earlier this year, Continuum can turn phones into teensy Windows computers. These devices could be launched at an upcoming Microsoft event this October -- we'll keep you updated with all the pertinent info, especially when you'll be able to buy them.

they could have launched by this coming month of october. fingers crossed.

I believe the Surface Mobile is the one expected to cost more than an iPhone. The other new models should be more reasonably priced as flagships go. I also hope the new devices are actually available soon after being officially announced.

Imagine the Surface phone rocking an Intel Atom processor, which means classic Windows desktop apps will be compatible, package that with a Continuum dock/cable

so looking forward to next week launching.
