Microsoft’s First Lumia Smartphone to Debut November 11

From DailyTech: We’ve already seen leaked details of Microsoft’s first Lumia branded smartphone (sans Nokia), and the Redmond, Washington-based company today just announced that it will reveal the device next Tuesday:

Unfortunately, Microsoft’s first Lumia smartphone isn’t some high-powered flagship device. Instead, it’ll be a low-end smartphone with a budget price tag to match. Following image and regulatory leaks of the device earlier this week, these specs were revealed to the public:

- 5-inch display (rumored to be 960x540)
- 1.2GHz Snapdragon 200 chip
- Dual-SIM
- 1GB RAM
- 8GB internal storage
- 5MP rear camera, VGA front camera
- 1900mAh battery
- Available in black, white, gray, blue, orange, blue, and green

It’s definitely not much to get excited about, and we were hoping for a more ambitious offering for Microsoft’s first Lumia smartphone. According to WMPoweruser, the device will set you back just $100 to $150 off contract, so at least it has that going for it…
