Nokia announced the Lumia 620 in the first week of December. According to the Finnish company, the device will cost $250 unlocked which is cheaper than the HTC 8S. Not only is it cheaper than HTC's less expensive Windows Phone 8 handset, but it is ahead in the specs department with only the battery being the downside.

Interested individuals who are eyeing the Lumia 620 can pre-order the device at Unlocked Mobile UK for only £174.98. Unlocked Mobile ships worldwide so don't worry too much if you do not live in the UK.

The features and specs of the Lumia 620 are as follows:

•  OS: Windows Phone 8
•  Display: 3.8-inch TFT WVGA (800×480) ClearBlack
•  Battery: 1300mAh
•  Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon(TM) S4 processor with 1 Ghz dual-core CPUs
•  Camera: 5-megapixel rear-facing camera with autofocus, VGA front-facing camera
•  Memory: 512MB RAM, 8GB mass memory (Micro SD support up to 64GB), and 7GB free Microsoft SkyDrive storage

The Nokia Lumia 620 will be available in Asia in early 2013, Europe and the rest of the world is expected to follow closely after. Those who pre-order via Unlocked Mobile UK will have to wait until the end of January to get the handset.
