Last month, mobile phone maker Nokia made official two new Windows Phone 8 devices, namely the Nokia Lumia 520 and the Lumia 720, both of which are currently listed as available for pre-order in Germany at much lower price tags than originally expected.

WPArea.de reports that the cheaper Lumia 520 can be reserved in the country at the moment for €169.9 ($220) via online retailer computeruniverse, while the Lumia 720 is listed on pre-order at the retailer for only €331 ($428).

As WMPoweruser notes, the two smartphones were announced with price tags of €199 and €379, respectively, and the pre-order cost at said retailer makes them highly appealing.

Both handsets have a lot to offer to users looking for affordable smartphones, and come to the market with pretty decent hardware specifications for their category.
