Nokia Lumia 920 and Nokia Lumia 820 tipped to launch in India on January 11th

The Nokia Lumia 920

According to a Nokia employee answering the Live Chat for Nokia Care, the Nokia Lumia 920 and the Nokia Lumia 820 are coming to India on January 11th. That dovetails perfectly with an 11 second commercial that Nokia ran late last month in the country for the Nokia Lumia 920, saying that, "We’re bringing out the world’s most innovative smartphone ever, soon," although no date was given for the launch. The ad focuses on the 4.5 inch screen on the phone, the camera that takes pictures even in low light situations and the wireless charging capabilities of the camera.

As far as pricing goes, speculation centers on a price under RS 40,000 ($736 USD) for the high-end Nokia Lumia 920 model, which covers a lot of ground. Nokia is asking for a RS 2,000 ($36.81) deposit for those pre-ordering the phone. The much more affordable Nokia Lumia 620 is supposed to launch in the fourth week of this month, according to Nokia Care.

I don't know why you guys got hands-down. Probably by the WP and lumia haters. But at last, the Lumia's are going to be here. I also hope the 620 is priced between 12k-15k...

But I think the killer price of 15k is too good to be true !! Anyways,Nokia needs to price their upcoming devices right in order to succeed... PS- very excited to check out some nokia wp8 stuff in a Nokia store in the coming days !!

I'm waiting to launch these devices in my country but these news make me feel excited to see them in the store for real. Windows Phone 8 is new and fresh for a mobile phone user like me. I hope that they will sell these devices for the best and introduce their tablet lineup as well.

Good for Nokia that finally they are launching it to the Indian Market now..........I was thinking that just like Lumia 900, they will launch this one month before launch of Apollo update, or their next flagship........ I was very excited for this phone, but my patience gave away, and finally I got Note 2 for myself, and I'm loving it very much, very capable phone, but it's no where near Nokia in build quality...........

Too costly .....It should be priced at 28000 . Why should anyone buy this mobile for rs 40000....Galaxy Note 2 is much better and awesome Mobile in comparison . Many people will buy this Lumia 920 for it's better camera, but when they need applications and games they feel that they make a mistake by buying nokia lumia 920 because Windows mobile does' t support application sideloading.
