Microsoft announces the Lumia 650 powered by the Snapdragon 212 SoC

After quite a number of months being in the rumour mills, today Microsoft is formally announcing the Microsoft Lumia 650 which according to credible reports will be the last Lumia phone from Microsoft as the company moves it's mobile business to the Surface brand. Nothing is confirmed at this point, so take it with a grain of salt. But, as for the Lumia 650 itself, this device is priced at US$ 199 (~ RM 822) and will go on sale in Europe on February 18.

As expected, the Lumia 650 comes with a metal frame paired up with a white or black polycarbonate back. And of course, the Lumia 650 comes loaded with Microsoft's new Windows 10 Mobile OS and joins the likes of the Lumia 550 and Lumia 950 series. Similar to the Lumia 550 launch, it seems that Microsoft is targeting the Lumia 650 for enterprise users than actual consumers.

Expect to see the Lumia 650 launch in Malaysia sometime soon and the device will be available in Dual SIM variants which will likely be the one coming to Malaysia. Learn more about the availability of the Lumia 650 here in Malaysia here

Microsoft Lumia 550 now available in Malaysia for RM 559


It is January already and Microsoft has yet to announce any concrete plans as to when the Windows 10 update will be rolling out to existing Lumias running Windows Phone 8.1. The update might not be here but an affordable option to try Microsoft's latest smartphone OS, the Lumia 550 is now available in Malaysia for a not to high price of RM 259.

The Microsoft Lumia 550 was spotted during the Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL launch last month and back then it was exclusive to Digi business users but starting today (January 15), the Lumia 550 is available to everyone for only RM 559 inclusive of GST through Microsoft Authorized Resellers across the country.

Beyond the affordable price, the Lumia 550 is a pretty solid smartphone that runs the latest Windows 10 Mobile software and supports 4G LTE in Malaysia. The only downside of the Lumia 550 is it's not so perfect Snapdragon 210 CPU that is quad core but runs at only 1.1GHz but that should't be a problem for Windows 10 phones as the UI uses resources pretty efficiently.

Alongside the Lumia 550, Microsoft Malaysia is also announcing the availability of the Nokia 230 Dual SIM which is a series 40 feature phone that comes with a premium metal design and costs only RM 269. The Nokia 230 isn't super rich in features compared to the Lumia 550 but it does have an amazing 23 hours of talktime.

Microsoft Lumia 550 Key Specifications:

  • 4.7-inch 720P display
  • Snapdragon 210 CPU @ 1.1GHz
  • 1GB RAM
  • 5MP rear camera
  • 2MP front camera
  • 2,100mAh battery
  • 136.1 x 67.8 x 9.9mm
  • 141.9g
  • LTE

Earn yourself an exclusive pass to the Lumia 950 series launch in Malaysia


In October, Microsoft officially announced the Surface Book which was the company's first laptop. Not to be overshadowed by the Dynamic Fulcrum Hinge, the equally impressive Lumia 950 series was also announced during that event. While the Surface Book will not be arriving to Malaysia anytime soon, the Surface Pro 4 is now available to buy through Microsoft re sellers throughout Malaysia but stock is limited.

Sorry for the cheezy and somewhat non-descript intro. Microsoft Lumia Malaysia has just opened up a competition on their Facebook page whereby they will be giving out 20 passes to the Lumia 950 series launch party happening on 15 December in Bukit Bintang. All you have to do is to describe your undivided love towards the Lumia 950 (complete the following sentence) “I love the Lumia 950 and 950 XL as much as…!”

The possibilities are endless with this and make sure you check out the comments section before posting to avoid being a copycat. It could be bacon and cheese, or Microsoft and Malaysia or ever as much as the Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL themselves. Sounds like a fun battle but make sure to check out the obligatory terms and conditions

Come unleash the all-new Lumia 950 & 950 XL with us, just complete the sentence: “I love the Lumia 950 and 950 XL as...

Microsoft announces the $55 Nokia 230 designed for internet-enabled application


Just recently, Microsoft made both the Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL available in select countries and they will be coming to Malaysia in December. But, Microsoft Mobile (formerly Nokia) is not all about smartphones as the big chunk of their device sales are on basic phones which are designed specifically to connect people.

Nokia 230 and Nokia 230 Dual SIM specifications

  • 2,8” QVGA (240*320)
  • Nokia Series 30+
  • 2MP rear camera with LED flash
  • 2MP front camerawith LED flash
  • 900/1800 MHz radios
  • Bluetooth 3.0 with SLAM
  • Up to 32GB Micro SD card support
  • 1200 mAh battery
  • Dimensions 124.6×53.3×10.9mm (91.8g)

Following the footsteps of the Lumia 950 series, the new Nokia 230 and Nokia 230 Dual SIM comes in two monochromatic colors, white and black. With a sandblasted aluminum back paired with a dual toned color scheme, Microsoft's new basic phone looks strikingly premium compared to the polycarbonate design of the new Windows 10 Lumias and yes,


Even with this premium look and feel, Microsoft didn't do away with the amazing standby time as the Nokia 230 still comes with up to 27 days of standby time for the single SIM model and up to 22 days for the dual SIM variant. That's not all, the measly 1,200mAh battery in today's standard is capable of up to 23 hours of talk time.

The Nokia 230 is not just designed to take calls, it's 2.8" QVGA display enables it to transform into a selfie camera, a camera, a web browser, a device to access Facebook, and many more internet applications. Nokia 230 still runs on Nokia's Series 30+ operating system and users will be able to download both apps and games through the dedicated app store.

At a price of US$ 55 (~MYR 232) excluding taxes and subsidies, the Nokia 230 single and Dual SIM variants will be made available in countries in India, Asia and the Middle East. Did I also mention that the Nokia 230 also doubles as a handy flashlight and the front 2MP camera is also assisted with an LED flash. Pretty awesome Nokia memories with the flashlight feature.

Live images of Microsoft's upcoming Lumia 950 XL confirms existing reports


Last month we saw quite a substantial amount of information about Microsoft's upcoming flagship Lumia phone, besides hearing about the specifications and the look and feel of the device, the guys over at Windows Central also made a mock up design based on the information at hand.

Well, it looks like the wait is over as here we have a couple of live images of the Lumia 950 XL itself (codenamed Cityman). On the front of the device, there's the new Microsoft branding and as described, this prototype device also comes with on screen keys rather than the capacitive buttons which we're used to seeing on flagship Lumia devices.
