The number of Nokia Lumia 920’s that you see on the street could be set to increase rapidly as EE’s exclusivity deal comes to an end.
Three have today announced that coming soon are the flagship Lumia 920 and the entry level Lumia 620.
Although Three have already mentioned via twitter that the 920 will be coming back in December this is the first time that there has been an official announcement.
Both handsets run Windows Phone 8 and will be available instore and online although pricing details are yet to be revealed.

I expect to see the number of 920s to Sky rocket now it’s no longer EE exclusive. In the US demand has been amazing, despite being only available on 1 network. The crucial difference is the UK really haven’t bought in EEs 4g – probably due to its overpricing – so once available elsewhere, it will be very popular!
EE is Oranage and Tmobile not just EE’s 4G network
