Nadella did not reveal the price of the Lumia flagships in India, but the US
pricing gives a diminutive hint. Lumia 950 was launched with a price tag of
$549, which roughly translates to Rs. 35,800, while the Lumia 950XL starts from
$649, approximately Rs. 42,300. Of course, there will be a change in price when
the handsets are launched in India but not with a huge margin.

smartphones are equipped with top of the line hardware, high-resolution cameras, Windows Hello, the biometric scanner(unlocks
the device by just looking at your face) for added security and Liquid Cooling technology. The smartphone
also comes with the much touted Continuum feature using which users can connect
