Microsoft accidentally reveals the Lumia 950 and 950 XL a week early

I thought the same thing about the Lumia but it seems a Nokia 225 does exist and came out in 2014 but it has a 2.8 inch screen and 240 x 320 resolution. I do not think it is a good first choice for any smartphone let alone a Windows Phone, I can see how people can think it was a Lumia. Here is a link to the Microsoft page about it https://www.microsoft.com/en/mobile/phone/225/ everything about it says emerging market to me.

Keywords are "Lumia" & "Windows Phone", the "Nokia 225" is neither, it doesn't run Windows Phone & it's not apart of the "Lumia" (WP) lineup. Microsoft is able to use the Nokia name for basic "feature" phones such as the Nokia 225, which runs on Series 30 OS --- these phones are only sold in emerging markets where no one has an iPhone, Galaxy or Lumia.

The lowest Microsoft (or Nokia) Windows Phone is in fact the Lumia 435.

Point is, the guy I was replying to was implying he used a Nokia 225 powered by Windows Phone / Windows 10 Mobile, and he's mistaken.

Like I said, it is close enough that some people can think it is a Lumia and Windows Phone, a lot of people wouldn't really pay all that much attention to those things when looking at a cheap starter phone, also the lowest Lumia is the 430.
