Microsoft Lumia 735 already discounted: now $29.99 at Verizon (on contract)

Available at Verizon Wireless since last week, the Microsoft Lumia 735 is a Windows Phone handset that was previously released in other markets as the Nokia Lumia 735. Initially, Verizon offered the smartphone for $79.99 on contract, but it has now lowered the price to just $29.99, obviously wanting more customers to consider getting the device. However, the off contract price hasn't been lowered, so it's still $192.

The Lumia 735 is a mid-range handset that sports a 4.7-inch display with 720 x 1280 pixels, and has a 5 MP front-facing camera for wide-angle selfies. The smartphone is powered by a quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor (definitely not among the newest chipsets around), further featuring: a 6.7 MP Carl Zeiss rear camera, LTE connectivity, 1 GB of RAM, 16 GB of expandable storage space, and a 2200 mAh battery with wireless charging capabilities (charging pad sold separately). Currently running Windows Phone 8.1, the Lumia 735 will be updated to Windows 10 - possibly starting September.

Verizon's Lumia 735 can also be bought from Microsoft Store, where it costs $49.99 on contract, and comes bundled with free Nokia headphones. Is anyone interested?
