Microsoft India has announced
'guaranteed cashback offers' on its high
end Lumia 930 and Lumia 830
smartphones. The offer introduced for th
Holi festive season in India is valid
starting Friday till stocks last, says the
company.
The cashback on both the Lumia 830
and Lumia 930 smartphones can be
availed by any consumer upfront via
physical retail stores. Unfortunately, the
company has not cleared whether the
offer is only valid in official Microsoft
stores across India or any physical retail
store selling Microsoft's Lumia 830 and
Lumia 930. We have contacted the
company and will update the story once
we receive a reply.
The Lumia 830 and Lumia 930 will be
available at new prices of Rs. 21,800 an
Rs. 31,600 respectively after the
cashback offer.
To recall, Microsoft launched the Lumia
830 and Lumia 930 last year in India,
priced at Rs. 28,799 and Rs. 38,649
respectively.
The Lumia 930 features an aluminium
frame with metallic accents, and a
curved polycarbonate back with Bright
Orange, Bright Green, Black and White
colours. It sports a 20-megapixel
PureView camera, which has optical
image stabilization (OIS) and Carl Zeiss
optics, which can be considered as
highlight of the device. A front-facing
1.2-megapixel wide-angle camera is on
board as well.
Microsoft's Lumia 830, on the other
hand, is billed as the company's
"thinnest and lightest Lumia to date." It
sports a 10-megapixel PureView camera
with Carl Zeiss optics, LED flash, and
also comes with what the company tout
is the "thinnest" Optical Image
Stabilisation (OIS) setup seen on a Lumi
smartphone. It also packs a 1-megapixe
front-facing camera.
Earlier this year, Microsoft re-launched
the Lumia 830 and Lumia 930 with
'anodised gold colour' aluminium frames
at CES 2015.
