It’s only been several hours since Nokia officially unveiled the Lumia 1520 and the phablet is already available for pre-order in Russia.

WPCentral reports that Windows Phone fans in Russia can now pre-purchase the smartphone for no less than 29,990 Rubles outright, which is about $940 or €685.

While delivery is free of charge, the retailer mentions all pre-orders will be shipped beginning November 21. However, those who wish to pre-purchase the Lumia 1520 should take into consideration the fact that the release date is subject to change.

Nokia announced earlier today that the Lumia 1520 will be launched on the market in Q4 2013 for a suggested retail price of $750 (€550), which makes the Russian version pretty overpriced.

It will be interesting to see how much the smartphone will cost in other European countries, so stay tuned for more updates on the matter.
