For those consumers who were rubbing their hands to buy HTC 8S - the mid-range Windows Phone 8 based offering, the right time has come. Yes! The Taiwanese tech giant HTC seems to have slashed the price of the smartphone.

 

Back in December 2012, HTC released 8S in India at a price of Rs 19,359 approximately. Being the sole mid-range Windows Phone 8 player in the country at that point of time, 8S created waves of excitement among the consumers. But not for long, as Lumia 620 was announced in India the next month itself and it is now available at a lesser price of Rs 14,999.

 

It has been a couple of weeks since the release of Lumia 620 in India and the price of HTC 8S has been slashed from Rs 19,359 to Rs 17,799. Online retailer Saholic.com has listed HTC 8S at the reduced price of Rs 17,799 for purchase.
