I ordered this phone at 6999/- and i was surprised to see that the market price was 7700/-. Anyway, amazon is rocking in India and providing best deals for us. As per Nokia & Microsoft are concerned...they are excellent individually and after they got married (nokia weds windows 8) they even got better. If you are a business professional or use email on the go then I would recommend going with Windows phone. Syns is quite easy with my windows 8 pc at home..

My current mobile is android and i was happy except voice guided navigation. My mobile used to take so much time to lock my position using GPS and i found this problem in so many android phones. But lumia 520 worked like a charm. Excellent offline maps and lifetime free maps download, super sensitive touch screen are a plus.camera also works well in low light.
Minus points.... Battery drains with in a day. I didn't find individual volume settings.you cannot set one volume level for audio player and diff setting for ring tones.

The product exceeds all expectations for a phone priced at 7K(on deal). It has all the features of a superior smart phone. The tiles take some time to get used to and it was a new experience but within a couple of days you begin to get used to it. The battery life is amazing and fits the popular nokia battery life specifications. I didn't need to charge it for almost 2 days(with limited wi-fi) use.

Lumia 520 is currently the best smartphone 10K can buy you. It punches above it's weight in all the aspects.

Although not an open-sourced Android but WP8 is catching up very fast to it. It does all the stuff a smartphone should do efficiently. Everything runs so smoothly in WP8, you hardly experience a lag in it. I've been using it for 2 weeks and installed tens of apps and it didn't lag once.

Music sharing is possible via Bluetooth(turn BT on, first).

For YouTube there's an app YouTube HD which lets you even download videos in SD, HQ or HD quality.

Microsoft Office services are some of the best. Flipboard is gonna release soon(alternative Zinio).

One of the best thing is integration of contacts with social networks. It's all in the People hub.

Camera is much better for a 5MP in day light photography. Clicks great quality pics, Nokia has so many good camera lenses apps.

Google maps are available plus HERE maps, both have their own benefits.

Battery lasts comfortably for a day with normal usage like calls, whatsapp, browsing etc.

And WP8 has quality apps whereas android is full of data sucking ad delivering crap apps.

Multitasking is done by long pressing the back button. You get weather updates and music controls on lock screen.

Screen quality is brilliant. Viewing angles are fine. You can pin almost anything to the home screen. UI is silky smooth and fluidic.

Give it a shot you'll love it. And remember you pay about 8000 for this. And it does punch above it's weight, android falls under it's own weight in this price range.

Experience it.

This is my second Lumia 520 which I got for my wife. First one was got from Flipkart 4 months back. I have used it throughly for 4 months and its the best value for money at the given price. Debate on 512 RAM vs 1 GD is irrelevant for me as i dont use it for gaming. For all office work its perfect with skydrive, office and tight integration with windows. The size is perfect to carry in pocket as I hate huge phone you lug in your hand.
Nokia is a tough machine, mine has endured upteen falls without a scratch. Touch is slick, no lag,There is a issue with the camera button but that just requires aligninig the cover properly. I suggest dont buy a case as the sheen of the nokia will be lost with that. Simple screen guard will do. This phone can take rough handling.
Regarding delivery. Made in promised time. Neatly gift packed. The tracking on Amazon is haywire they need to catch up with flipkart where you can track the parcel by the hour. My queries on web chat were promptly addressed.But Amazon has competition in face.I brrought this below 8000 as it was cheapest among all online sellers.

An excellent product I would say. I would recommend (Saholic) to anyone for their excellent pricing and fast shipping. Got the product in 2 days time with excellent packing.
About the phone, this is the best value for money phone available in the market. If you can put up with the lack of secondary camera and a flash, then think no further, this is the ideal buy. With a dual core 1Ghz processor, Adreno 305 GPU (the same you get in Lumia 720), this phone is studded with capabilities and again it is Nokia who knows Indian market better than anyone.
And about the lack of apps, well who needs lakhs of apps in his phone. All you need is just 20-40 apps that serve your purposes and you can definitely find them in the windows marketplace.

5 for shipping
5 for amazon
5 for lumia 520

I got Nokia Lumia 520 (black) as my birthday gift. It is an amazing phone. with all mandatory features, also it has a nice screen resolution with a worthy camera of 5mp. The only feature it lacks in is that it doesn't have flash which makes it a bit difficult in low light. Overall the phone is recommended for everyone, a good looking, awesome windows8 software, its definitely worth buying. Its worth higher than its price. :)
I had purchased this phone for Rs.7900/-
Hope this helps you :)

Very nice phone from Nokia with all the advantages of a smart phone , it's features is just amazing.
This is the fastest selling phone through E-commerce web sites,good camera ,windows is not user friendly like Android other wise nice,Browsing speed is good,big screen provide a satisfaction of high end smart phone. but there is no option of sending video and apps are less. other wise superb
