AT&T prices Lumia 920 and 8GB HTC 8X at $100, Lumia 820 at $50

[newarkhiphop]

AT&T is finally spilling the beans on how much its Windows Phone 8 handsets will set you back if you plump for a two-year deal. Nokia's Lumia 920 costs $99.99, $50 less than previously speculated, and will come with a free wireless charging plate. If your wallet can't (or won't) stretch that far, then you can snag a Lumia 820 for just $49.99, the same price as last generation's flagship. If you've had your eye turned by HTC's much-lauded Windows Phone 8X, then you can select an 8GB limited edition version in blue or limelight (yellow) for $99.99, or a 16GB device for $199.99. Both of the Nokia handsets will be available to pre-order from the 7th (tomorrow) and available on the 9th (Friday), while the 8X should be rolling around "before Thanksgiving." Now that 'Ma Bell has tipped her hand, it's now down to Verizon, which is expected to make its riposte on Thursday.

The 820 will probably be free at places like Walmart, Wirefly, Amazon Wireless, Radio Shack and other sites.

This is a route I'm planning to take.

They have to sell them at fire sell prices because Win 7 was such a failure as a whole, plus the Win 7 early adopters are being left in the cold with only a few select phones getting the Win 7.8 update.

When the flagship Lumia 920 and HTC 8x selling at less then a $100 out the box! That not a good sign.

That's why the 920 is exclusive to ATT. Exclusive devices sell for lower the cost to attract consumers.

WP7.5 didn't fail it attracted good developer support tons of people wanted Lumia's but only avail in ATT. Verizon and Sprint 0 support but now Verizon is on board good stuff.

No it failed, If this was Microsoft core business they would have been Palm status. They selling at these prices because it will not sell at $200-$399 that high end Android and iPhone's sell at.

Win 8 is the Hyundai of cell phones! aka GS3=Mustang GT iPhone=Camaro SS Lumia 920= Hyundai Genesis coupe
