- Codenamed Sirius (same codename as Nokia Lumia 2520 by the way), will saw 5.2" display and a Snapdragon 800 SoC. The handset will launch in January 2014 (we'd predict if this handset could announced at mid-January or late January, as Sony said there are no more flagships unveiled in CES).

- Codenamed Canopus, will spot 5" display and Snapdragon 800 or 805 SoC. The handset will available in two versions, the cellular version and the WiFi-only version, and will unveiled at May of 2014.

Latest Moneypenny leak shows 4G LTE support, but no dual-SIM

Take a look at the screenshot below courtesy of @evleaks.

This is the Moneypenny screenshot. As you know, Moneypenny have a dual-SIM and single-SIM version. Few days ago we reported the Moneypenny dual-SIM version screenshot (a little typo at the title), and now this is the single-SIM version that may have 4G LTE (look at the top of the screenshot). The dual-SIM may not have 4G. This seems to be the Lumia 635 screenshot, while the 630 has dual-SIM feature.

By the way the original screenshot resolution is 480x854, which is a resolution that Windows Phone doesn't support. The actual screen resolution may be 480x800, while the 54 extra pixel is used for on-screen buttons. Remember WP8.1 could have on-screen buttons?

(Look at the clock, it's 6:35)

The 630/635/'Moneypenny' should launch on Q1 2014 (we predicted that this phone would show up in MWC 2014).

Today, they tease us again saying that the Find 7 will have a QHD (Quad HD, not to confuse with qHD) display resolution and a 5.5" display (at a fantastic 538 PPI).
