Mobile phone users in the UK interested in the purchase of a new Nokia Lumia smartphone can now head over to the websites of online retailers Unlocked Mobiles and Clove to grab the Lumia 620 handset for themselves.

Officially unveiled in late 2012, the new mobile phone is the cheapest Nokia Lumia device to run under the Windows Phone 8 operating system.

As UnwiredView notes, the handset is offered in the UK SIM-free and unlocked, but will send users back £214.98 ($339 / €250) at Unlocked Mobiles, while being priced at £226.80 ($357 / €264) at Clove.

The smartphone arrives on shelves with a 3.8-inch screen, a 1 GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon processor inside, 512 MB of RAM and 8GB of internal memory.

On the back, the handset features a 5-megapixel photo snapper, complemented by a VGA camera on the front. NFC, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, and HSPA are also packed inside it.
