We all know that both the Lumia 950 and the Lumia 950 XL are just around the corner and Microsoft plans to unveil them on October 6, but once the company posted them in the official online store, we finally got the very first confirmation that this would indeed happen.

At that time, the product pages for the new Lumias were unavailable, as Microsoft clearly wanted to stir up interest without actually revealing too much information (not that we hadn't already known everything about the two devices), but now more photos have been published in the store and provide us with a quick look at the phones.

Familiar Lumia design

As you can see for yourselves, the two Lumias look just like in the photos that got leaked not a long time ago and feature the familiar Lumia design that had been used even before Microsoft took over Nokia.

The Lumia 950 XL will come with a 5.7-inch display that will boast a resolution of 1440x2670 pixels, as well as a 20-megapixel camera on the back and a 5-megapixel unit on the front for selfies and video calls.

A Snapdragon 810 processor will also be offered, and so will be 3GB of RAM, and 32 GB of storage. MicroSD card support will be available for expanded storage. The 950 XL will come with a 3,300 mAh battery, but for the moment, it's not yet clear if it is removable or not.

The smaller Lumia 950 will have a 5.2 screen with a resolution of 1440x2560 pixels and pretty much the same specs, except for the processor, which is likely to be a Snapdragon 808. The battery will also be smaller - only 3,000 mAh.

Both models will come with an iris scanner for Windows Hello, USB Type-C, and support for Microsoft's new Continuum features that will allow the phones to become mini-portable PCs.
