The phone is made either of aluminum or 16K gold

If you still haven’t had your fill of Microsoft Lumia concepts, we have another one for you today. Just a few days ago, we showed you what would happen if Samsung’s “edge” design language were ported to Lumia devices.

The Lumia 888 concept is probably one of the first designs that add the newly rebranded Windows 10 Mobile into the equation, giving us an idea of what to expect from Microsoft in the upcoming months.

Well, today we have yet another premium phone to show you: it's called the Lumia 2000 and runs Windows 10 Mobile out of the box.

The concept is created by Jonas Kvale, who believes that the Lumia 2000 should be made of aluminum. He also envisions a 16K gold version that would probably appeal to the rich and powerful.

Unlike other concept phone designers, he doesn’t leave us wondering when it comes to specifications. The reveal the Lumia 2000 should arrive with a 5-inch full HD display, and the phone would also pack a 16MP camera with dual LED flash and a pretty advanced 8MP selfie shooter up in front.

The device bundles 2GB of RAM and 32GB of built-in storage, but there’s no mention of a microSD card slot. The designer doesn't really say if this is the case, but it appears that the Lumia 2000 might benefit from a USB Type-C port.

Currently, only a handful of phones support this standard, and incidentally, their manufacturers hail from China, like LeTV. We are yet to see an established brand vendor in the mobile industry launch a handset with a USB Type-C, but such devices are probably going to become more widespread as we advanced into 2015.

The Lumia 2000 has a very sleek design but still retains the bezels on the display, unlike the Nokia 888, which boasts an edge-to-edge display and an interesting see-through home button.

The Lumia 2000 does look more traditional but is also closer to reality.

Microsoft has already confirmed that two flagships and two-mid rangers are coming later this year. The company hasn't provided any specific dates, but the event is probably bound to happen towards the end of 2015, when Windows 10 actually gets the green light.
