Microsoft Devices, TD Unveil Nokia 2520

Microsoft Devices in partnership with TD Mobile, today announced the availability of Nokia Lumia 2520, the company’s first Windows tablet.

The Lumia 2520 features 4G LTE connectivity as it has the Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 chipset, a 10.1” full HD display with the brightest screen for clear reading both indoors and outdoors, a 6.7 megapixel camera with ZEISS optics, 32 GB of onboard memory, multiple colour choices, 11 hours of battery life and fast-charging capability; providing up to 80% charge in one hour.

Commenting on the development, Gozy Ijogun, business manager TD Mobile, said Microsoft Devices has responded to the yearnings of professionals, business executives and the stylish mobile citizenry for a tablet PC that catches in its convenient size more functions than a laptop can offer.

Speaking further, Ijogun said that the Nokia Lumia 2520 has fully triggered the tablet revolution in West Africa and urged TD resellers to take advantage of this exclusive product to enrich and differentiate their offerings in the market. In her words “a star product like the Lumia 2520 would make your bouquet irresistible to the end users and make significant input to the bottom line.”

She advised end users to shun the temptation of buying from the grey market and buy only from approved channel, as the one year comprehensive warranty will only apply to the purchases made through approved channel.

Ijogun added that genuine and original products are the surest ways to achieve productivity objectives.

Further explaining that Microsoft Devices’ decision to give TD-Mobile the right to distribute this device across the nation’s IT landscape comes as no surprise to observers of the sector.

Microsoft Devices, with its rich and long (over a century) history of producing reliable, strong, sophisticated devices could not have found a better partner than Technology Distributions, No1 ICT distributor in West Africa, with a product portfolio of globally renowned OEMS, and a distribution network spanning three continents.

TD has a highly motivated and professional workforce with whom the company has won numerous international and local awards for innovative marketing and good corporate governance.
