Reports from two separate news outlets today say that Microsoft is building a couple of new premium Windows 10 phones under the Lumia brand.
One of the phones will be considered the flagship of the line, according to The Verge and a blog called Unleash the Phones.
Unleash the Phones originally reported on the new devices. The Verge tried to confirm the story, but could confirm only the code names of the phones: Cityman and Talkman (the flagship phone).
Unleash’s sources say the Cityman phone will have a 5.7-inch QHD display, a Qualcomm octa-core processor, 3GB of RAM, a microSD slot, a 5-megapixel front-facing camera, and a 20-megapixel rear camera.
