I wonder how much it will cost off contract.

08-29-2012, 06:25 PM

I would say $449-$549 off contract

But I would bet on $549

Thanks. I didn't read; I only looked at the pics. But I think $549 is too much for a Windows phone at this point in time.

The price is cool, the specs prove it. WP8 is gonna be a game changer for better or worse. The phone does look like an iphonedroid with wp8 os.

I'll be waitin on the new Nokia joint droppin in a week! [pic]

Everyone's sleeping. People who actually know about phones know this could be the next big thing. Average customers dont know what there buying they just know Samsung HTC and iphone.

But anyways if you havent used it. Give it a try before you knock it. With MS behind this its only getting better to bad im !!ing stuck on sprint who probably won't get a w8p til next year but on well I hope they at least get a high end nokia.
