Unveiled less than two weeks ago in Abu Dhabi, Nokia Lumia 1520 has just been officially launched in Hong Kong and Vietnam. Although the smartphone is not yet available for purchase, at least customers can reserve their units until they hit shelves.

WMPoweruser reports that Nokia Lumia 1520 will be available in Hong Kong in Black, White and Yellow beginning November 15. The phablet has been priced at HK $5,998 outright, which is about $775 or €565.

Customers in Vietnam can pre-order the Nokia Lumia 1520 for around $800 (€590) off contract, starting November 8. The smartphone is slated for a November 24 release, much later than the version launched in Hong Kong.

However, the first 1000 customers pre-ordering the phablet in Vietnam will receive a free JPL speaker. Stay tuned for more info on the Lumia 1520’s launch in other countries.
