Deal: Get an Alcatel IDOL 4S with Windows 10 for $288 from T-Mobile

You can get the phone for $288, down from its original $432 price-tag. However, this will be the SIM locked version of the device from T-Mobile as opposed to the unlocked one which goes for $470 at the Microsoft Store. Users have the option to either pay in full or split it in a monthly charge of $12. You will also receive a SIM starter kit from the telecom operator for an additional $20 if you"re not an existing customer.

For the uninitiated, here are the specs of the device:
