Contract plans for the Nokia's recently announced Lumia 800 Windows Mobile 7.5 smartphone are now up on Vodafone UK's website, with the company now accepting pre-orders. The first 10,000 customers will receive £60 of vouchers for use on Amazon, the Zune music store, Starbucks and so on, with the vouchers being provided in £10 instalments each month for use with different services.

Plans are available for 12, 18 and 36 months, starting at £36, £31 and £26 per month respectively, all with a phone cost of £199. The Nokia Lumia 800 is free only on 18 and 24 month contracts from £41 per month for the former and £36 per month for the latter.

Fairly standard offerings from Vodafone but with the buzz of the new Windows Mobile 7.5 OS running on a new, stylish, Nokia smartphone and Vodafone's voucher promotion, there's certainly potential for strong sales.

Will you be buying a Nokia Lumia 800?

The cheapest deal that offers 1GB of data is £56 per month!!!!!

Stupid Vodaphone and their stupid expensive deals….
Going to wait for the next windows mobile generation before I take a serious look. IMO it is still lagging behind the Droid army for features at the minute, so I don't see it as a viable alternate.

Google/Droid integration with G+, photos, Contacts, Calendar, Mail, Books, Documents, Navigation, Apps, Games, Movies, Music, Talk is pretty awesome and is only going to get better.

My money is still on Google giving me what I want and more for the foreseeable future.
How Much!?

They've missed the mark here, its quite possibly a very nice little package, but far too expensive.

I'm also sick to death of phones costing £400….
Would have thought they would have made the handsets cheaper to get back in the market….
iPhone 4s works out cheaper than this >.>
