Nokia is joining the July 4 celebrations with a offer on its new Lumia 635 smartphone on T-Mobile's contract-free network for $119.95.
Nokia, the renowned smartphone brand, is finally bringing its Lumia 635 budget-smartphone to stores after launching it alongside Lumia 930 and Lumia 630 at the Microsoft's BUILD conference in April. The new entry comes at a time when the nation is indulged in the July 4 celebrations, so Nokia throws a great deal on Home Shopping Network for the Lumia 635.
The low-cost device with basic specs and Nokia's signature looks is up for grabs from HSN online store at a bargained price of $119.95. The deal includes the smartphone, 2,000mAh portable battery which comes in blue, pink and white color options, and a car charger for further attraction. The smartphone comes locked on a T-Mobile's network, but does not tie customers to lengthy contract terms.
The Lumia 635 is one of the first Nokia handsets to come with Windows 8.1 out of the box. It features on-screen navigation buttons, 1.2 GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor, 512 MB RAM and 8GB internal storage that can be expanded up to 128 GB via microSD cards. With a 4.5-inch IPS display, the smartphone offers a basic screen resolution of 854 x 480 pixels. The camera is aided with 5-megapixels with HD recording at 30fps. Sadly, selfie takers will have to take a break as the front shooter is missing.
The Lumia 635 is listed with a retail value of $170 on the HSN online site, but it offers a $30 savings on the HSN price tag of $149.95. The handset will not be immediately shipped to buyers as the retailer estimates delivery on July 21.
T-Mobile subscribers can get the handset under Simple Choice plan with $0 down payment and 24 monthly installments of just $7. Orders can be placed on T-Mobile's website starting July 9 or in stores on July 16. Additionally, Metro PCS will start offering the Lumia 635 starting July 18 for a promotional price of $99, according to T-Mobile's press release.
