Ultra-Rapid Smartphones

The Lumia 950 Blends Speedy Functioning With Slick Design

— October 7, 2015 — Tech
The Lumia 950 is an all-new phone that looks to be marking the return of the sleek and high-end, spec-loaded Windows Phone.

This device features an extremely convenient and comfortable form factor, what with its 5.2-inch Quad HD AMOLED screen and its ultra-lightweight chassis. As far as the tech specs themselves are concerned, there's a whole lot that you can work with here. This camera is equipped with a quality 20-megapixel camera that is capable of capturing far better photos than the Lumia 1020, thanks to an f/1.9 aperture lens and optical image stabilization.

The device is also equipped with a USB Type-C port along the bottom edge rather than the typical MicroUSB, although it will work well with wireless chargers as well. The Lumia 950 is powered by a Qualcomm hexacore Snapdragon 808 with 3 GB of RAM, making it ridiculously quick for a phone this small.

With its speedy processor, suite of great features and slick design, the Lumia 950 really is a wonderful high-end smartphone.
