Very affordable and build quality is topnotch. Battery life is decent.
The editors didn't like
Lacks frontfacing camera. Applications available on Windows Phone Store is meager
There’s not a great deal to say about the Nokia Lumia 520 hardware, good or bad. It’s just a block. But it’s a smooth block with few pointless edges and seams, that houses a five megapixel camera and a superb four-inch 480x800 resolution screen that looks great and is easy to read on and watch videos, now that there’s finally a proper YouTube app for Windows Phone.That’s more than enough to stand
We’ll largely skip over the software issues we have with all Windows Phones. You probably know what they are by now: fewer apps. The only unusual software issue we ran into was that as with the Nokia Lumia 720, the Lumia 520 inexplicably lacks Nokia Drive+, so while you can use your phone as a free satnav in the UK, you can’t download maps for other countries when you’re travelling abroad, as you
The Nokia Lumia 520’s a corking phone for under £100. True, there are Android phones floating around at this point with many, many more apps on offer, but they lack the ease of use of Windows Phone and Nokia’s solid engineering. Our only advice? Shop a...
Killer price, Decent specs, Windows Phone 8 and Nokia apps
Display not the greatest, Mediocre camera, Build quality could have been better
What makes the Lumia 520 special is the fact that it is perhaps the only smartphone in the vicinity of Rs 10,000 to be running the latest version of a new OS. We don't think it really delivers as much value for money as the Lumia 620, but is a very decent...

Das Nokia Lumia 520 ist hübsch gestaltet, robust und für die Einstiegsklasse gut ausgestattet. Gerade die 8 GB Speicherplatz braucht es bei Windows Phone 8, da nur Musik, Fotos und Filme auf die microSD Karte ausgelagert werden können. Die Performance re...

For $150 U.S. there is little to fault about the Lumia 520, which ends up being a carefully crafted balance of cost and features. You're not going to get the premium parts that Nokia reserves for flagships like the Lumia 920, but at the same time enou...
Almost everything – neat design, good battery life, reasonable camera, amazing price
There's no front camera, no rear camera flash and the processor could be faster
If you're moving up from a basic Android handset or feature phone, the Nokia Lumia 520 offers exceptional value and lots of likeable features. If you didn't know the price, you might guess this was a mid-range phone at least. Extra features like being ab...
A mais barata entre as opções da linha Lumia, o Nokia 520 é sem dúvida um dos modelos mais atrativos disponibilizados pela Nokia no mercado brasileiro. Sua faixa de preço o coloca ainda como um smartphone de entrada na categoria, mas suas configurações po...

Hochsensitiver Touchscreen, Speicherkartenschacht (MicroSD bis 128 GB), Nach Update auf Windows Phone 8.1 lassen sich Apps auf MicroSD installieren, Farbige Wechselcover
Keine Frontkamera, Keine Blitz-LED, Stark spiegelnder wenig kontrastreicher Bildschirm
Das Lumia 520 nutzt Windows Phone 8 als Betriebssystem und richtet sich mit einem Vier-Zoll-Bildschirm sowie einer Auflösung von 800x480 Pixel eher an Smartphone-Einsteiger. Das Besondere: Ähnlich wie beim Lumia 920 ist das Display hochsensitiv und auch m...
