Microsoft’s latest release includes the mid-range Lumia 640 and the larger sibling Lumia 640 XL. However, a flagship device from the tech giant is pending for a while now. But then, recently, the Microsoft Lumia 940 specifications were leaked and now, a slew of concept renders pertaining to both Lumia 940 and Lumia 940 XL have been published.

The designer of the Lumia 940 and Lumia 940 XL is apparently Ryan Smalley, who is well-known for the concept renders specific to the Lumia 935. And reportedly, these handsets will run on Windows 10 and will sport excellent camera units, according to Concept Phones.

Going by the killer Lumia 940 XL renders, the handset will reportedly feature a mind-blowing 40 MP PureView camera as the rear-facing unit. This sensor will support optical image stabilisation (OIS) and high resolution zoom functionality. And apparently, both Lumia models will come with a fresh new design by getting rid of bezels on the display. And if reports are true, the devices are expected to be wrapped in an aluminium chassis along with a polycarbonate or plastic enclosure. Moreover, the killer primary camera unit will be housed within a polished aluminium ring.

However, the point to be noted is, the big camera unit on the rear is not bulky instead it houses perfectly inside the chassis, notes Concept Phones. While the Lumia 940 XL gets a 40 MP primary camera, the smaller sibling Lumia 940 apparently gets a 20 MP snapper with other camera features similar to the Lumia 940 XL. The other significant camera feature is the humongous Xenon flash on the rear of the handset.

And most importantly, the Lumia 940 is expected to feature a 5.7-inch display along with a Quad HD screen resolution of 2,560 x 1,440 pixels. Meanwhile, the smaller Lumia 940 will reportedly settle for a 5.0-inch display. Plus, the handsets are expected to come with transparent UI, enhanced settings area and a new Web browser, to name a few. Behance also says the upcoming device will be offered in Andesite, Obsidian and Sandstone hues.
