Yesterday's rumored BOGO is a GoGo: Buy the Microsoft Lumia 950 XL, get the Microsoft Lumia 950 free

Just yesterday, we told you about a rumor that Microsoft was about to offer a BOGO deal. More precisely, the speculation called for a consumer to purchase the Microsoft Lumia 950 XL and receive the Microsoft Lumia 950 for free. Sure enough, the deal is now official and is available from the online Microsoft Store in the U.S. and Canada. The software giant was hoping to cut its increasing inventories of unsold Lumia handsets by offering this deal.

The BOGO covers unlocked models only. The free Lumia 950 comes only in black, and the deal is good while supplies last. If you are a student, your 10% discount is still valid and is subtracted from the price of the 950 XL.

For those Windows 10 Mobile fans (and we know you do exist) who have been waiting for a spectacular deal to pick up the Lumia 950 XL, this is it. The 950 XL features a 5.7-inch AMOLED display with a 1440 x 2560 resolution. Under the hood you'll find the Snapdragon 810 SoC equipped with an octa-core 2GHz CPU, and the Adreno 430 GPU. 3GB of RAM is inside along with 32GB of expandable storage.

The rear-facing camera is a 20MP snapper with an aperture of f/1.9, and OIS. Those who like to shoot selfies have a 5MP front-facing camera that can be employed. A 3340mAh battery keeps the lights on.

The Lumia 950 has a smaller 5.2-inch display (still 1440 x 2560 resolution). The Snapdragon 808 is under the hood with a hexa-core 1.8GHz CPU and the Adreno 418 GPU. A 3000mAh battery powers the device. Most of the other specs including the cameras, RAM, native storage, and microSD capabilities (200GB) are the same as those found on the Lumia 950 XL.

The Lumia 950 XL is $649 and the value of the free Lumia 950 is $549. There is no word on when this deal might end. If you are interested, click on the sourcelink
