A new mystery device has just popped up on benchmarking site GFXBench.

The handset, the HP Falcon, is the first Windows 10 Mobile handset powered by the new and powerful SnapDragon 820 processor and Adreno 530 GPU.

Lumia-Snapdragon-820

According to the listed specs the device would have a 5.8 inch 2560×1440 screen, at least 2 GB RAM, 20 megapixel rear and 12 megapixel front facing camera and probably 64 GB of storage.

No other information exists about the handset, and with HP recently splitting into an enterprise and devices company it is not clear whether the handset is simply a prototype that will never hit the market. GFXBench data can of course also be faked, so we tend to take it with a large grain of salt.

If the device is real however, would our readers consider it in place of a Lumia (especially if somewhat cheaper)?
