It’s been a busy day for the Nokia Lumia 1020 as that device’s global rollout is now kicking off. Earlier today, Nokia announced the device’s availability for the UK at the end of September and now the third party retailers are climbing over each other to offer the best deal.
Phones4U joins Clove UK in bringing the 32 GB version of the 41 MP Lumia 1020 to the UK this month. The Phones4U deal though is especially enticing as the device will be free on some limited contracts for EE, Vodafone and Orange. In addition, when you preorder from Phones4U, you will get £295 worth of “bonus” features including a camera accessory pack, a 6 months Netflix subscription, and a free wireless speaker. The phone ships on September 25.
Our UK team is on assignment but that sounds like a really good deal to us. What’s in the camera accessory pack, you ask?
- Wireless Charging Pad (Nokia DT-900)
- Wireless charging cover (CC-3066)
- Camera Grip (PD-95G)
- Tripod (KVRM90)
People who preorder will also get a free wireless speaker if you order on a 4G plan. That camera pack is no joke as those are all official Nokia accessories, including the coveted camera grip and wireless charging gear.
64 GB for Brazil in October
Following the UK announcement, Brazil also got in on the action as the 64GB version of the Lumia 1020 for the carrier Vivo (part of Telefónica group in Brazil) was teased today as well. Windows Phone Central first reported on Telefónica’s exclusive rights to the 64GB version of the Lumia 1020 back in July for all of their sub-carriers in Europe and Latin America.
Vivo is expected to get the device in October though the exact date and pricing were not announced.
