The AT&T Nokia Lumia 920 currently retails for $99 when purchased from the carrier, but handset is available for a penny through Amazon.
If you're in the market for an AT&T Windows Phone 8 smartphone and don't want to spend $300 for the upcoming Lumia 1020, the Lumia 920 is a solid choice. The smartphone ships with the latest version of Windows Phone 8 and Nokia has confirmed that it will be bringing the Lumia 1020's Pro Camera App and other imaging software to the 920 in a software update.
AT&T is currently charging $99.99 for the Lumia 920 with a new 2-year contract, but you can get the same smartphone at a considerable discount by purchasing it through Amazon. The online retailer is offering the AT&T Nokia Lumia 920 for $0.01 when signing a new 2-year contract with AT&T.
The Nokia Lumia 920 features a 4.5-inch 1280 x 768 PureMotion HD+ and ClearBlack Display that blocks incoming light reflections through a polarized layer designed to improve screen visibility in direct sunlight. The smartphone runs Windows Phone 8 and will soon be receiving the Nokia Lumia Amber software update that will add new features to the device, as can be seen in a video leak we reported on recently.
The 920 is powered by a 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor, includes 32GB of internal storage, 1GB of RAM, an 8-megapixel rear camera that packs in PureView technology and Carl Zeiss optics with 26mm focal length and dual-LED flash, HD 1080p video capture @ 30fps with hardware optical image stabilization, a 1.2-megapixel front camera with 720p video capture, 4G LTE radio, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth, GPS, a non-removable 2,000mAh battery with up to 9 hours of talk time and 13 days standby time, and built-in wireless charging support.
Lumia smartphones have quickly become the most popular and the face of Windows Phone partly due to the fact that Microsoft gives Nokia more access to customize and add Nokia-specific features. Other Windows Phone licensees do not enjoy the same privileges. Nokia includes Nokia Maps with Nokia City Lens' augmented-reality view that actually allows you to see what's around the next corner on your smartphone. Nokia Drive provides free, voice-guided, turn-by-turn navigation and Nokia Music allows you to stream hundreds of free music channels through the Lumia 920.
Amazon is offering the Lumia 920 in choice of Black, White, Cyan, Red, and Yellow for $0.01 when signing a new 2-year contract. It is also offering free two-day shipping when purchasing the smartphone.
