Nokia Lumia Icon page has now appeared live at Verizon’s website. May be it going on sales in China was too much for Verizon! It also raised questions about Verizon siting on Lumia Icon stock already. The live page stills shows the placeholder pricing of $777. So, may be it is just matter of sometime when Verizon sorts this out, but as informed by our sources it indeed saw a low-key release, which is a shame as many would love to go for this in place of Lumia 1520.
Fun part: So, how well our probable specs for Lumia Icon matched with the real specs of the device. We say pretty much! Below is the spec detail from Verizon’s official listing and you can go to our Lumia Icon page from here.
