Nokia is widely expected to unveil two smartphones in just a few days. Its “More Lumia” press event will take place on April 2 as Microsoft’s Build 2014 conference kicks off. While less is known about the higher-end Lumia 930, the specifications of the entry-level Lumia 630 (codenamed Moneypenny during development) have been the topic of more than one past rumours. These have now effectively been confirmed as promotional posters for the upcoming device have appeared at Chinese retailers ahead of the device’s announcement.
Rumoured Nokia Lumia 630 specifications:
- Processor: Quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 400
- Operating system: Microsoft Windows Phone 8.1
- Display: 4.5-inch WVGA (480×800)
- RAM: 1GB
- Internal storage: 8GB
- Rear-facing camera: 5MP
- Dimensions: 129.5 × 66.7 millimeters
- Other: Dual-SIM support with dual standby
An other set of leaked pictures obtained by Nowherelse.fr also gives us a look at the new virtual button implementation:
As evidenced by leaked images in the past, the Lumia 630 will not come with a physical shutter key. This suggests that Microsoft has opted to drop this as a requirement with Windows Phone 8.1.
Pricing is expected to come in at about CNY1,000 (about CA$180). It should launch in mid-April in China. There are no details yet about its availability in other markets.
