Verizon’s new Windows Phone 8 ‘the HTC 8X’ coming in with wireless charging

Verizon is now ready to unleash its latest Windows Phone 8 device by HTC called the 8X, and this is expected to happen sometime this month. More good news awaits you HTC and Verizon fans as this specific handset will come in with an exclusive treat from both companies. Yes, the HTC 8X will arrive with wireless charging (sounds familiar?). If you have been paying attention to the latest Windows Phone 8 devices offered by Nokia, then I am sure that you know that their handsets the Lumia 920 and Lumia 820 are first announced to come in with this kind of charging method.  TechRadar confirmed this good news courtesy of a certain (unnamed) Verizon Wireless representative and said: “Yes, wireless charging for the 8X on Verizon Wireless is indeed built in”

This special offer will also come as exclusive to Verizon Wireless. Now, that sweetens up the deal doesn’t it? This time, the confirmation was from an HTC spokesperson. It is rare for Verizon to keep its patrons on their toes when it comes to their latest offerings. This time, Verizon is so happy that they did not even bother to hold out the info that long (unlike last week when it was all about the Samsung Galaxy Note 2). The said HTC 8X will go for $199 under a two-year contract and is expected to arrive this Thanksgiving day. You can also get their version of the new Nokia Lumia 820 (well it is the Nokia Lumia 822) for only $99.

If you are from the US then you can expect another Windows Phone 8 device before the year ends (according to Microsoft). Recently Microsoft sparked new intrigue that involves Verizon Wireless when it revealed that the carrier will be offering a device called the Samsung ATIV Odyssey this December. And for some strange reason, this certain phone has not been announced YET!
