You can now start placing your order for the gigantic Nokia Lumia 1520 on AT&T and the Microsoft Store, where it will retail for $199.99 with a two-year contract. The smartphone will be available exclusively on AT&T’s 4G LTE network from November 22.
A first for Windows Phone 8 with a (very large) 6-inch 1080p display, the Nokia Lumia 1520, unveiled in October, comes in four colors — matte black, matte yellow, matte white, and glossy red. It also packs a quad-core, 2.2 GHz Snapdragon 800 processor and a mighty 20-megapixel PureView camera. Off-contract, the phone is available for $749.
As an extra bit of goodwill for customers, AT&T is also offering a $20 app voucher, a free copy of Halo: Spartan Assault, and 50 GB of free cloud storage on AT&T Locker to those who buy and activate the phone, while the Microsoft Store is giving away $70 worth of app vouchers and a free copy of Halo: Spartan Assault.
