Verizon gets high-end Nokia Lumia 928

Verizon has announced this week that it will sell the new high-end Nokia Lumia 928.

The Lumia 928 will sell for $99 after rebate and with contract.



Nokia's latest is very similar to the Lumia 920 sold through rival AT&T, except it is lighter and has a slightly different screen.

The 928 weighs 5.7 ounces compared to the 920 at 6.5 ounces. Additionally, the 4.5-inch screen extends to the edges of the phone compared to the curved edges of the 920.

Under the hood is a 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor, a 2,000mAH battery and 32GB internal storage. The camera is impressive with a Carl Zeiss f/2.0 lens, 8.7-megapixel sensor and Xenon flash.

Verizon is also offering $25 in Windows Phone Store credit with purchase that can be used on apps and games.

  Man I hope they abandon Windows 8. It is killing the PC. I wouldn't buy it on a tablet or phone either. I have used it and hate it. You'd think they could look at the poor sales of new PCs and etc and get a clue...
  
  

  Just my $0.02,
