Nokia Lumia 1320 Coming to Cricket June 13th

The Lumia 1320 will be priced at $229.99 after a $50 mail-in-rebate and that’s without a contract, you’ll be able to get in online or in Cricket’s brick and mortar stores. The 1320 will be running Windows Phone 8 and will be updated to 8.1 shortly. The 1320 has a 6” screen and they’re calling it a ‘phablet’ which is a word that I just can’t stand personally. I could never see myself walking into a store and asking for a ‘phablet’. Ah, whatever, details below for you..

Cricket Wireless debuted today the first Nokia phone/tablet, or "phablet", for no-annual-contract customers in the U.S. The Nokia Lumia 1320, a large, powerful and versatile 4G LTE device, is available exclusively in Cricket stores and online beginning this Friday, June 13.

The vibrant orange Lumia 1320 features a stunning 6"IPS LCD display, making it the perfect, affordable, 2-in-1 solution for customers wanting to carry one device for all their talking, texting, surfing, streaming and productivity needs. Delivering on the promise to provide great value for wireless service without an annual contract and industry leading offers, the Lumia 1320 will arrive at Cricket for $229.99 after a $50 mail-in-rebate Cricket Visa® Promotion Card*.

"Our expanding lineup of new and popular phones on top of a nationwide, reliable network offering more 4G LTE coverage than Sprint, T-Mobile, and Metro PCS, period, is a differentiator mobile customers will enjoy every day," said Andy Smoak, Cricket Wireless AVP of Product. "With the Nokia Lumia 1320 we are providing big value to customers at a budget friendly price."

Cricket customers can live large with this impressive smartphone sporting the Windows Phone 8 operating system and a bright 6" super-sensitive HD display which allows use with nails and gloves, better readability in sunlight, ClearBlack technology and has Corning® Gorilla® Glass 3 for added protection.  The Lumia 1320 also has dual cameras, 1080p video recording,  Nokia Camera features to take and share pictures like a pro, and a large 3400 mAh battery that lasts all day and beyond** so the phone and their service will keep up with them wherever they go.
