Microsoft isn’t expected to launch its first Windows 10 flagships until next week, but the company accidentally got ahead of itself yesterday when it listed the two smartphones on the Microsoft Store earlier than it intended. The listings have since been pulled, and they didn’t reveal anything that we hadn’t already learned through the endless leaks we’ve been seeing in recent months, so it’s not actually that big of a deal. Still, the listings what we already knew regarding the Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL, including their fairly bland designs but impressive specs. At this point its really just a matter of the price.

Microsoft has accidentally listed two upcoming Lumia devices on the Microsoft Store ahead of their launch next week, revealing their official design and specifications way too early. The Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL have already been leaked extensively over the past few months, but their listing in the Microsoft Store confirms many of the details that were previously rumored, including their names. These devices will be the first to launch with Windows 10 Mobile on-board, with both expected to support the operating system’s full feature set. Both devices feature 1440p displays: 5.2-inches on the Lumia 950, and 5.7-inches on the Lumia 950 XL. We’re also looking at 20-megapixel optically stabilized cameras on both handsets with Zeiss f/1.9 optics, as well as 5-megapixel front cameras, 32 GB of expandable storage, 3 GB of RAM, Qi wireless charging, USB Type-C, iris scanners, and removable batteries. The two devices differ in SoC: the Lumia 950 gets Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 808, while the larger 950 XL gets the Snapdragon 810. We’re also looking at different battery capacities, with the 950 featuring a 3,000 mAh battery, and the 950 XL a 3,300 mAh battery.
