Elkjøp in Norway shipping Lumia 930's early to customers
The Nokia Lumia 930 with Windows Phone 8.1 is just starting to roll out globally, and Norway is slated for July 10th. Preorders started just about a week ago at various retailers, including Elkjøp with the device costing 4495 in Norwegian Krone, or about US $735.
We are getting reports from at least two customers that Elkjøp has already shipped preorders, with reader Sindre H. already receiving his today in the mail and sending us the above photo. Forum member 'thorkenneth' also confirms that preorders have begun shipping, beating out almost all other locations.
The Lumia 930 is the current flagship Windows Phone with 8.1 preloaded. It comes with a more moderate 5-inch display instead of the Lumia 1520's larger 6-inch. In addition, the Lumia 930 comes with a 2.2 GHz Snapdragon 800 processor inside, along with 2GB of RAM, Qi wireless charging and 32GB for storage. The rear PureView camera supports an impressive 20 megapixels.
Have you preordered the Lumia 930, if so when do you expect it?
Thanks, Sindre, for the tip and photo
