How in the world are Windows 8.1 smartphones so cheap?...I just ordered the newer Lumia 635 from Amazon for $54 for the heck of it.
Believe it or not, the damned thing probably cost less than that to make. But if not, it's still probably worth it for AT&T to subsidize the difference even though it's off contract.

I can't believe I'd see the day where you could buy an unlocked smartphone for less than $50-60.

Yeah, you are right. I am with ATT and I don't ever plan to switch carriers, so it works for my situation. I heard the 635 were on sale for $39 during Black Friday. $39! Crazy.
