Pre-order your AT&T branded Nokia Lumia 1520 now; phone gets released on November 22nd

It is now official. After some false starts via the Microsoft Store, the word directly from AT&T and Microsoft is that the Nokia Lumia 1520 phabet can now be pre-ordered from AT&T for a price of $199.99 on contract. Off-contract, the price is $584.99. The first Windows Phone phablet is available in red, black and white with yellow available later this year. The unit will be released on November 22nd. That is actually the exact date that a leaked screenshot of an inventory page tipped us off to on Wednesday.

Thanks to Microsoft's GDR3 update, Nokia can offer a Windows Phone 8 model with a 6 inch screen LCD screen, 1080 x 1920 resolution and a 368ppi pixel density. The update also allows the device to be driven by a quad-core 2.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor. With a purchase of the phone, the Microsoft Store is offering $70 of free Windows Phone Store credit, a free flip cover and Halo: Spartan Assault. AT&T will give you $20 of Windows Phone Store credit, 50GB of cloud storage with AT&T Locker, and Halo: Spartan Assault.

Remember, AT&T's version of the phone limits you to 16GB of native storage, and wireless charging is not included. A 32GB model is supposedly on its way. For those worried about storage on the phone, there is a 64GB capacity microSD slot on the device. AT&T does have anexclusive on the device in the U.S.

i love Android but i wanted to try a Nokia/windows-phone for the first time i was waiting for this to come to T-Mobile but it sucks that Nokia and T-mobile didn't make it happen. Nokia never learns with there Exclusives and they wonder why Nokia/windows-phone is not reaching the place it should be.

I agree. One of the main reason for Nokia's failure is in identifying correct market / product. timings & its importance. India still has large loyal fan base but Nokia brings in new product after few months & by that time the hype of new model has been cooled off. This is why people here go for other brands who release their new / latest models at par with other parts of world as they have clearly understood Customer’s mentality. There was lots of buzz & demand for Lumia 1020 in India but when it finally arrived, it was too late & pathetically priced. People opted for iPhone 5s, Samsung Galaxy Note3, etc.

you did not read the article it basically say T-mobile is not interested in the new Nokia models, they want the upgrade to the 521 and stick with apple which improve their sales and added customers,

Incredible off contract price. Convert that to the UK and you get £362!!! The iphone 5s is £600+. The Nokia Lumia 1520 is going to own 2013 and 2014 hands down. Well done Nokia.

order from microsoft website to get the free Nokia case that turn into a stand, and you get 50 dollars in Windows credit to use in the store......which is nice now I can switch over easier from my Note to 1520, I doubt I get same apps, I hardly have any apps on my phone now, so I will keep that 50 dollar credit for a couple months

Ordered mine in the early a.m. I expected the microsoft store to have some kind of freebie as always, but $50 store from msft, $20 store credit from Nokia, free flip case ($40 value) and Free Spartan assault is just kick ass!!! Cant wait to play the game on the 6" monster!!!
