Microsoft has started sending out invitations for a press event that it will hold at MWC in Barcelona on March 2nd. Don't expect to see a new flagship Windows Phone model introduced at Barcelona as most reports indicate that a new high-end Lumia model won't be introduced until sometime in September. Indications are that a low-end model in the Lumia 6xx range will be unveiled at MWC.
Another model that might be primed for an sequel at MWC is the Nokia Lumia 1320. Despite its phablet-sized 6-inch screen and a large 3400mAh battery, this is not a high-end phone as evidenced by the 1GB of RAM and 8GB of native storage onboard the phone. One other report says that we will see the RM-1072 make an appearance at MWC. This is rumored to be a low-cost version of the Lumia 830 with a 5-inch screen offering a resolution of 720 x 1280. An 8.7MP PureView camera is on back and the device is powered by a quad-core Snapdragon 400. We could see the unnamed phone priced at $275.
