Nokia Lumia 822 & HTC 8X Release Date by Black/Red Friday


Verizon has announced that it will be releasing the Nokia Lumia 822 and the HTC 8X Windows Phone smartphones by Thanksgiving, giving Black Friday shoppers a chance to nab them for Christmas. Both these phones run Windows Phone 8, and complement Verizon's previously only-available Windows Phone, the HTC Trophy. You can grab the 8X for $ 199.99, and the Lumia 822 for $ 99.99 after rebate.

According to the announcement, the HTC 8X will be available in blue, red, and black, priced at $ 199.99 with a two-year contract. Meanwhile, the Nokia Lumia 822 will be available in white and gray models priced at $ 99.99 with a two-year contract after a $ 50 rebate. The Lumia 822 is exclusively available from Verizon.

The HTC 8X has a 4.3-inch display and features a 1.5GHz dual-core processor, as well as an 8-megapixel rear camera. We got our hands on this smartphone back in October; you can check out the review here. The Nokia Lumia 822 is similar, with a 4.3-inch display, 1.5GHz dual-core processor, 16GB of internal storage, and an 8-megapixel camera.

Windows Phone 8 brings with it an interface that resembles the newly-released Windows 8 operating system. You'll find Live Tiles on the home screen, which you can use to organize your phone by pinning items, such as bookmarks, in an easy-to-access location. Users who nab one of these phones will also get the Data Sense app, which monitors data usage, as well as 7GB of SkyDrive space.
