Sometimes, we do wonder whether leaks of information by a vendor is done deliberately, or by accident, but the end game is more or less the same – attention is drawn to said leaked device(s). Well, Walmart has just leaked out pricing details on upcoming smartphones from T-Mobile, where we are looking at the Windows Phone 8X and the Nokia Lumia 810. Of course, one needs to bear in mind that carrier prices could very well vary from retailer to retailer, since it is up to the likes of Walmart to charge what they want – it is just the amount of profit margin that differs.
Recently, Sprint did reveal that they will be selling the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 for nearly $300 a pop, and it does seem that Walmart’s leak points toward a similar price point for T-Mobile’s Galaxy Note 2. In terms of Windows Phone-powered handsets, your wallet would appreciate the pricing details more as HTC’s Windows Phone 8X should cost $150 with a contract, while the Nokia Lumia 810 would hover around the $100 mark.

There is a fair number of Android-powered tablets in the market today that aim to go toe-to-toe against the Apple iPad (and we would presume, the iPad mini subsequently), and the Nexus 7 from Google (manufactured by Asus) is one of them. Well, it seems that since the Nexus 7 tablet went on sale on July 27th in the UK by Carphone Warehouse, it has become the best selling Android tablet in that part of the world to date. Of course, this does not mean that the Nexus 7 has outsold the iPad – far from it, but at least it outdid the Asus Transformer Prime and the Samsung Galaxy Tab, perhaps its £159 price tag has something to do with it as well.
