Design and Build
While specific dimensions and weight details are not available, the Lumia 850 was expected to follow the Lumia lineage, featuring robust build quality with a clean, minimalist design. The use of a Nano-SIM card slot, with optional dual-SIM support, amplified its global appeal, attending to markets where dual-SIM usage is prevalent. The phone's design reflected Microsoft’s commitment to functional aesthetics, highlighted by a ClearBlack display aimed to improve visibility outdoors, despite the lack of confirmatory details concerning screen protection. The black color variant struck a balance between professional and understated elegance.
