When does Microsoft and previously Nokia releases new Flagship devices

Currently interested in getting a Windows Phone but i don't want to buy now one and find in that in a month or 2/3 Microsoft releases newer and obviously bring out new models. So in what month do the new devices come out in Europe.

Hey! It's just a guessing game. But I see no reason to release a High-end WP right now since there are no new chipsets on the market and Windows 10 is coming in the 2-3rd Q next year. A guess is there will be reveals and releases in the may-august window.

Edit:
I would recommend that you get a cheap 1Gb-device and get a feel for the OS and check out how the app-situation is. You will probably be overwhelmed by how much you get for how little, and will want a high-end device even more.

Get a low-end one now to get used to the o.s. No true flagships are being released until the fall of 2015. They're going to be Windows 10 versions. All Windows Phone 8/8.1 devices are upgradable to Windows 10.

Well i will go for a flagship as i feel confident that i won't be disappointed as i heard that the camera is absolutely super. And i am not a huge gamer so if there are not that much games as on Android/iOS i won't mind .

If you like photography, you're looking at a great OS. Like we said... The new flagships is due in six months AT THE EARLIEST. So I don't think you'll be surprised to learn about a new flagship tomorrow. This is not Android.

Could be waiting till November...
I've got the Lumia 930, 1020 and 1520. The 930 is the latest flagship and is amazing. The pictures are really good, but the 1020 does produce some amazing shots. The 1520 is a phablet and I love it due to its size.

If recent reports about the discontuance of the 1520 is true; wouldn't it make sense to have a Flagship earlier than 6 months. Right now the 1520 on GSM and ICON on CDMA is what we call Flagship phones. Both appear to be out of production. If MS waits for many months to bring new ones to market, I believe they will kill the upper end Window Phones completely.

My guess is that they will announce at least two Flagship devices based on 801 or 805 processors in the next 90 days. These will be guaranteed to have the hardware to take full advantage of Win 10 but fill the gap until Win 10 is introduced.

Other than a fleeting thought about this, I have no supporting info to back it up. I just can't imagine MS is willing to loose all momentum if they don't have flagship phones before 3/4 2015.

What say YE?

Well I will wait until around may as I might have than enough for a Windows Mobile phone. As I assume that about ?600 will be enough or close to. So for now I will buy next month the iPhone 6 plus and after safe my money for a Lumia device.
