But you'll need to pay £399 for it..
Contract prices are still a little vague, but if you want a Nokia Lumia 800
on pay-as-you-go, the Three network has come forward with a price for that. At
least, one has been spotted online.
The Windows Phone 7.5 (Mango) handset will cost £399 when it hits the
shelves. That's according to Recombu,
which did a bit of digging at Nokia's official site. Try and order one on PAYG
via Vodafone or Orange and you'll get nothing. Tick the box for Three and you'll
get the price, as well as the call rates to both landlines and mobiles (26p for
both per minute, if you are interested).
Sadly, you can't grab one yet with the launch date still a little vague.
November is being talked about, the the official word is 'coming soon'. Still,
at least there is actually a non-contract option. Initially, Carphone Warehouse
had confirmed the handset for £449, but later said the device would be contract
only. That no longer seems the case. If you prefer a contract deal, Three,
Vodafone and Orange should all be able to oblige in the coming weeks, probably
for around £36 per month if you want to put us on the spot.
As for the handset itself, that launched last week, with both Nokia and
Microsoft hoping its mix of good looks and impressive functionality will give
both companies a much-needed boost in the high-end smartphone market.
