Microsoft "planning two new high-end Lumia smartphones for release this year"

It's reported Microsoft is planning to release two new high-end Lumia phones - both running the upcoming Windows 10 for Phone operating system.

Tech website Unleash The Phones says the new devices will be launched in the second half of this year:

The more premium high-end Lumia is codenamed “Cityman” which will boast a 5.7 inch QHD display, a Qualcomm octa-core processor, 3GB RAM, 32GB of internal memory with a microSD card slot, 20 megapixel rear camera, 5 megapixel front facing camera, and a 3300 mAh removable battery.

Then there’s the Lumia codenamed “Talkman” which will boast a 5.2 inch QHD display, a 6 core processor from Qualcomm, 3GB RAM, 32GB of internal memory with a microSD card slot, 20 megapixel rear camera, 5 megapixel front facing camera, and a 3000 mAh removable battery. Apparently Microsoft is going to try and keep this one much slimmer than the Lumia 930.

The website says Microsoft will also be announcing a new feature which will let users answer calls and receive and send text messages from their Windows 10 computer.
