Windows Phone 8 handset UK availability and pricing detailed: free starting from £21 per month

Posted in: Today's Chili

We’ve heard how Windows Phone 8 is all about you, and seen all the devices bearing the new OS at launch. What’s left, however, is where you can get one on the other side of the pond and, more importantly, how much it’s going to cost you. Nokia has separately announced that both the Lumia 920 and Lumia 820 will be launching in the UK (and France) later this week. More specifically, though, it looks like every UK carrier will be getting at least two handsets, with the almost-ready-to-launch EE getting both of HTC and Nokia’s handset pairs. We’ve got all the (current) pricing details and availability dates after the break.

Phones4U taking preorders for Samsungs Galaxy S III Mini

If good things come to those who wait and good things come in small packages, then the Galaxy S III Mini must be pretty special indeed. If you’re in the market for the junior edition of the company’s blockbuster flagship, independent retailer Phones4U is now accepting pre-orders. The first 350 of you to register your interest will also get the added sweetener of one of the company’s Pebble MP3 players, and the company promises it’ll begin shipping on November 2nd, free on plans of £25 or more.

Phones4U now accepting preorders for LG's Optimus 4X HD, first 50 gets Cheryl Cole tickets

Do you like the look of LG’s Optimus 4X HD and the soulful stylings of Geordie songstress Cheryl Cole? Phones4U can satisfy your twin passions by offering the first 50 pre-order customers a pair of tickets to see the former Ms. Tweedy perform live at the LG Arena. Those further back in the queue (or who preferred Nicola) will have to settle for LG’s flagship handset, packing a 4.7-inch display and NVDIA’s Tegra 3, clocked to 1.5GHz. Pre-orders kick off today, and the handset (and tickets, if you’re quick) can be in your grubby paws from August 27th, setting you back £26 each and every month.

ZTE Grand X reaches UK shops a tad early through Phones4U

ZTE Grand X reaches UK shops a tad early through Phones4U

Virgin Mobile had originally promised the UK version of the ZTE Grand X for early August. The carrier just can’t contain its enthusiasm: it’s letting retail partner Phones4U sell the budget smartphone as of today. While you’re busy skipping the start of the Olympics, the store will give you a Grand X for free if you’re willing to spend at least £20.50 ($32) per month on a tariff instead of opting for the £190 ($299) pay-as-you-go hardware price. As we saw in China, the appeal of the Grand X is in those numbers — it’s more the temptation of stock Android 4.0 in a low-priced (if capable) suit than the hardware. Phones4U does hope to sweeten the pot through a contest. We hope you like the musical styles of Professor Green, as the British retailer is giving early Grand X adopters a chance to win both a custom Professor Green case as well as tickets to a private concert.
