It's been too long since the last Lumia flagship,
but rumors hint at what's to come. The info
allegedly comes from sources close to Microsoft
who say that the Lumia 940 will have an 830-like
design. The phones are based on an aluminum
frame, the back is polycarbonate.

The Lumia 940 will have a 5.2" QHD screen (1,440 x 2,560px), but there will be an XL version too.
The Microsoft Lumia 940 XL will have a bigger 5.7" screen. The batteries should be 3,000mAh
and 3,300mAh respectively.

Both will bring a 20MP PureView camera (and not 25MP), plus a 5MP selfie camera. The two will have 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage, but the
chipsets may be different. The 5.2" model at least
will use a hexa-core processor, most likely a
Snapdragon 808 like the LG G4. The big 5.7"
model will pack an octa-core, probably a
Snapdragon 810.

Additional info about the Lumia 940 duo
indicates a USB Type C connector, which may be
used for the Continuity feature, which can switch
between touch mode and desktop mode. Type C
connectors can carry data, video and power
simultaneously, making the setup simpler. A Lumia 840 is also in the works, already in testing.
