Nokia’s Lumia 620, the cheapest Windows Phone 8 device currently available for purchase from the Finnish handset vendor, will soon have to offer more to its users, as a waterproof cover for it is en route to the market.

The info comes from Sander Teunissen, B2B sales manager for Nokia Netherlands, who also said that the cover would offer dust protection for the device.

“Great news - IP54 protective cover (water- & dustproof!) on its way for Nokia Lumia 620,” Teunissen said in a recent tweet.

As WMPoweruser notes, the cover will provide users with protection from water splashes, while also keeping the dust away from the Windows Phone 8 device.

No specific info on when the cover will become available for purchase has been provided for the time being, but it should not be too long before that happens, it seems.
