Nokia Lumia 2520 reaches Verizon on November 21st for $500 contractfree

Verizon isn’t going to let AT&T hog all the Lumia 2520 buyers this weekend — it just announced that it will start selling Nokia’s Windows RT tablet on November 21st, one day before the device is available at AT&T. Pricing will remain the same at $500 contract-free or $400 on a two-year term, but Verizon is sweetening its deal by offering a carrier-appropriate red model to online shoppers; retail customers will have to be content with black. There’s no word on 2520 variants for other carriers, but it’s good to know that Americans will have at least some choice in networks when picking up Nokia’s LTE-equipped slate.

Nokia Black update to add Bluetooth LE across entire WP8 Lumia range

Bluetooth low energy compatibility arrived on select Nokia Lumia models (520, 620, 625 and 720) through the Amber update, but now it’s making its way to the rest of the line. A new FAQ entry on Espoo’s website has confirmed that the feature will come to all devices in the range (even the more high-end ones) via the upcoming Lumia Black update. The Bluetooth 4.0 mode mode uses less power than traditional Bluetooth data connections, and its arrival will allow all Lumias to connect with accessories and other gadgets that use the technology exclusively. Nokia has yet to reveal when Black will be released, but we’ll update you faster than a Bluetooth transfer as soon as we find out.

The Phones Worth Buying This Holiday Season

The Phones Worth Buying This Holiday Season

The best smartphone for most people this holiday season is the iPhone 5s. The candy-coated 5c is tempting from afar, but the 5s is worth $100 more for a device you’ll use dozens of times per day for two years. That small premium gets you a better camera with burst mode and slow motion video, a TouchID sensor that actually works pretty reliably, and a faster, more future-proof processor. The 5c is for people who don’t know better, but now you do.
