From PC World: While Microsoft has been busy putting the finishing touches on Windows 10—the new operating system for PCs, tablets, the Xbox, and phones—Daniel Rubino over at Windows Central has been trying to discern the future of Lumia phones. Now, he says he's got it figured out after talking to a number of unnamed sources.
The new phones are reportedly working under the codenames Cityman and Talkman, Windows Central reports. Keen observers will note that we've been hearing those codenames for at least a year. They first popped up in June 2014 via Evleaks.
A year ago, Cityman and Talkman were phones that were on the roadmap following the canceled McLaren project.
As recently as May, Cityman and Talkman popped up in rumors about the upcoming flagship smartphones for the Lumia line. UnleashThePhones reported that Cityman was a 5.7-inch device with a QHD display, Qualcomm octa-core processor, and 3GB RAM. The Talkman, meanwhile, was said to be a 5.2-inch phone with similar specs to the larger device.
