Tech Tip - Unlocked GSM 4G LTE Smartphone just $67

A mobile device tip for those of you in need of an affordable and efficient smartphone solution. You simply can’t go wrong at this price, even if you aren’t a Nokia errrr Microsoft errr Lumia fan!

Via Amazon (sorry but i can’t verify how long this price will last) here’s an unlocked Lumia smartphone for less than $70 – and you can get free shipping using Prime or a free Prime delivery trial. The Lumia devices (think Nokia) have a pretty decent camera, pleasant UI, and the Lumia maps and music services are downright awesome! The device is unlocked and can be used on most carriers. Gorilla corning glass protects the device, however, they can break, I know this as we lost one recently to an accidental drop so to be safe you should case it!

For a mere $70 this is an idea second phone, backup, device for kids or workers who are prone to losing or breaking devices. Use the phone on any carrier or simply use it sans-SIM over wifi. Complement this device with your Office365 account and you’ll have a very affordable enterprise class device!
