14 DAY TRIAL // For the second time in the last couple of weeks, Microsoft kicked off Lumia 950 and 950 XL pre-orders in the UK. However, the prices, as well as the shipping date, have remained the same.
Both Lumia smartphones running Windows 10 Mobile were listed briefly on Microsoft Store UK, but the Redmond-based company quickly pulled them from the webstore.
All in all, customers in the UK will be able to pre-order the Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL via Microsoft Store once again.
As for the price, the Lumia 950 costs £450 while the Lumia 950 XL is more expensive, at £530 outright. Both black and white versions of the smartphones are available for pre-order.
According to Microsoft, these devices ship by December 3, which could mean that the company might be able to send them to customers slightly earlier.
However, we doubt customers who pre-order the Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL in the UK will receive their smartphones until late November.
The flagships are already on pre-order in many other European countries
As many of you probably know by now, Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL come preloaded with Windows 10 Mobile operating system right out of the box.
A third smartphone running the same version of the mobile platform, Lumia 550, will be launched on the market sometime in December.
Unlike the Lumia 950/950 XL, Microsoft Lumia 550 is a budget-friendly smartphone, which costs around €150 outright.
Microsoft's new flagship smartphones are already available for pre-order in many other European countries, but no retailer seems to be able to ship them by mid-November.
On the other hand, in the United States, Lumia 950 is expected to arrive at AT&T on November 20. Also, the phone might ship around the same date, so customers in the US might get their phones faster than those in the UK.
