AT&T Confirms Plans To Carry Nokia Lumia 830, The "Affordable Flagship" Phone

If you’re an AT&T customer who has been eyeballing the Nokia 830, you won’t have to wait much longer. AT&T confirmed that it will be carrying the “affordable flagship” phone, which is getting attention for having a stylish body and high-end features at what is expected to be a low price. Sadly, AT&T isn’t saying yet just what that price will be. It’s keeping mum about a release date, too, but given that Nokia expects the phone to be available this month, AT&T’s plans probably aren’t much different.

Despite being an unusually thin and light Windows 8.1 smartphone, the Lumia 830 is loaded with hot hardware and software. The phone has a 10MP PureView camera with ZEISS optics and a 1.GHz Snapdragon quad-core processor. And the display, which is being touted as being bright and clear even in sunlight, has the new curved Gorilla Glass 3. The phone will come with the Lumia Denim Update already installed.



The news follows the recent launch of the Nokia Lumia 730 Dual SIM and Lumia 735, which are being touted as good cameras for serious selfie takers, thanks to their cameras.

He took a degree in English and tech writing with him to Computer Power User Magazine and spent years reviewing high-end workstations and gaming systems, processors, motherboards, memory and video cards. His enthusiasm for PC hardware also made him a natural fit for covering the burgeoning modding community, and he wrote CPU’s “Mad Reader Mod” cover stories from the series’ inception until becoming the publication editor for Smart Computing Magazine.  A few years ago, he returned to his first love, reviewing smoking-hot PCs and components, for HotHardware. When he’s not agonizing over benchmark scores, Josh is either running (very slowly) or spending time with family.
