No new WP flagship from Microsoft until September

15 December, 2014
This will make it nearly two years between flagships - the current Lumia 930 was announced in April.

Hopefully they'll just release something like the MS Lumia 930 plus and 1530 plus in the meantime. The 930 amd 1530 will have to go up with S810 android devices with double the in-built ram.

Still, I think this is better than releasing a new range every 6 months like HTC and Sony do when there merely incremental upgrades.

    I don't understand why Microsoft did not fix the gap of apps between Windows and iOS/Android!

    Why there are many people wish to jump ship from iOS/Android to Windows but they just can't.

    Because the major issue with Windows phone is lack of apps which is compatible with iOS/Android.

            Grrrrr... I've been waiting for the right upgrade from my Lumia 920. I can't stand Android, so it looks like I have no choice but to switch to Apple fairly soon.

I know i wouldnt, the only good thing about them was the Mitsubishi engines and thats ages ago now, they just used Mitsubishi to earn a reputation of quality and then changed to cheap copycat engines that isnt worth the metal theyre made of (ok theres not much metal in them anyway, right)

                really want to buy microsoft new phone but they ve delayed until next year. im an iphone fan and using an iphone 6 and has been using iphone for nearly 4 years. to me ios has been boring and would like to make a change. yes they have a lot of powerful apps and flagship were amazing but my heart says windows phone and ive been crazy maniac searching for a perfect WP for almost 3weeks and not find any ! and this news came up. really really disappointed. 1520 perfect but too big, 830 has a really awful prosessor and PPI, 735 got plastics around which is bad and only 8gb internal. 930 dont have any external options! im going crazy right now !

                  It's ok for Me to wait for next year. Now i have Lumia 1520 by my side. Even it is a last year phone but it's still run perfectly than Most or i must say everyday android crap phone out there. I will definitely Buy the next year Lumia phone. Cos it will run the new window 10 64bit software and using qualcomm s810 64bit cpu.it will be a beast of a phone. Let microsoft show google how a software should be done.

                    Oh nooo, lol! With Apple, HTC, and now MIcrosoft launching only one or two handsets per year, we'll have to suffer through a non-stop stream of Samesung releases until September. ; _ ;

                            This terrible news, it would like all new cars coming for 2015 and Hyundai says, no we'll wait until September to roll out ours. Sales would drop like a rock, the same for Microsoft. I have the 920 and it's over two years old and I won't wait until September.

                              Well that is bad news cause I like to see a new Lumia flagship next year. But overall, being realistic, the lower end Lumia's and the mid-end Lumia's are the phones which boost sales for WP8.

                                i think its just ok?? maybe to catch up with the latest specs since they are always a generation delayed? if they release something now, others will just say that it has outdated specs.. for me its better late than never. :) just my two cents

                                    They had three things going for them
                                    1) The Nokia brand
                                    2) The largest camera-sensors on some models.
                                    3) The potential of cross platform Windows-apps.

                                    The brand is gone, they only release ordinary camera models, and third is stil a vision we need to see...

                                      If Microsoft wants to boost its sales then it should leave "Lumia" of Nokia. Microsoft should launch " Microsoft phone " with official quality and color. Not yellow, pink, bright red types nonsense phone. Microsoft name is official but with "Lumia" word it become sub standard. Nobody wants to listen Lumia and Nokia.

                                        Why a new Lumia 6XX ? I don't think so man...

                                        My guess: Lumia 430, Lumia 435, Lumia 832 dual sim version and Lumia 835 with 5.7 HD display
