Even images of both the devices were leaked. the Talkman is seen in black color.

The device is powered by a 3000mAh battery which is removable and comes with Qi wireless charging with flip cover. The device sports a USB type-C port for charging and data transfer. From the images which were released, we can see that the camera stands out of the back panel and the windows logo beneath it is more squarish compared to the earlier logo.
The right side of the device sports the Volume rockers, power button and the camera button, the front side with thick bezels which surely do not give the device premium look from the images at least.
