Nokia’s upcoming smartphone will carry the Microsoft Mobile branding.

The Lumia 830 is slated to be the next upper mid-range device from the Finnish company.

Windows Phone Central has some photos from the Brazilian telecommunications authority Anatel that show the phone with the Microsoft Mobile brand in a sticker on the inside of the phone.

The phone’s model is RM-985, and it has dimensions of 139.4mm x 70.7mm x 8.5mm.

The micro USB charging port is situated at the top of the phone near the headphone jacks.

The phone has a micro SD card slot, a dedicated camera button, a Nav bar that is hardware based capacitive, LTE/4G capabilities, a removable back cover, and replaceable battery.

Anatel documents note that the the Nokia Lumia 830 has a Lumia 1020-like camera housing, and WP Central suggests that this could mean that rumors about the Lumia 830 having a PureView camera could be true.

Thus far, rumors have it that the Lumia 830 will have either a 4.5 or 4.7 inch display that is either 720p or 1080p.

The phone will pack either a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 or 801.

Microsoft is expected to unveil the Lumia 830 at a press event in Berlin on September 4, before the IFA trade fair, and a launch is expected to follow shortly after.

Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile should be carrying the Lumia 830, or some variant of it.
