This week, the entire gadget and tech world was stunned with the latest devices and announcements from top manufacturers around the world. Some of the notable ones include the Galaxy Note 3 from Samsung and the Xperia Z1 from Sony. 

Now it seems Nokia and its future owner Microsoft are already taking the upcoming battle very seriously. In fact, it slashed a whopping $100 from the pricetag of the world's best Windows Phone, the Lumia 1020. 

Packed with the industry-leading 41-megapixel camera, this Nokia smartphone is undeniably one of the more good-looking phones from the Finnish manufacturer it launched this year. 

Released last July, the Lumia 1020 packs a 4.5" screen with 1280x768 pixels. It also comes with 2GB of RAM, 32GB of internal storage, and a dual core processor. And now, this flagship level phone can be yours in as low as $199 in Microsoft and AT&T stores in the United States. 

But wait there's more!

If you buy right away, you would also get a free Nokia camera grip accessory to help you with those professional-level snapshots and videos. 

Indeed, this is a tempting deal from Nokia and Microsoft, and some consumers who are not too conscious about operating systems may just go for it.
