Microsoft Lumia 950 (codenamed Talkman,[1] a reference to the old Nokia Talkman) is a smartphone developed by Microsoft, officially revealed on October 6, 2015[2] alongside the larger Microsoft Lumia 950 XL. The phone was first released on AT&T in the United States on November 17, 2015,[3][4] and subsequently made available on the Microsoft Store[5] as well as in other countries.[6]
The Lumia 950 was the successor to the 2014 Nokia Lumia 930 and is among the first phones to natively run Windows 10 Mobile. The phone is primarily aimed at users desiring a flagship device, in contrast to Microsoft's previous strategy of targeting developing markets with low-end hardware. Microsoft's numbering convention designated the Lumia 950 as a 5th-generation device in the high-end 900 series.
The Lumia 950 was Microsoft Mobile's last flagship device. A supposed successor called Microsoft Lumia 960 (codenamed Northstar) was cancelled as Microsoft decided to wind down the Lumia hardware business.[7][8]
