They should perfect their lumia 920 first. I have not seen anyone who can download app from the app store. It is messy.
Re: Nokia Announces The Lumia 520 by Nobody: 4:38pm On Feb 25, 2013
This is long overdue- Nokia has long been expected to go downmarket with an entry level phone like this. If only the windows 8 platform had numerous apps to choose from...

You are a fan of Android, good for you but not everyone would like to use that OS so Windows Phone 8 is an excellent alternative for such folks. Nokia has certainly upped its game, their decision to go the Windows Phone route has seen the company turn some profit, go look up their recent financial standings.

The Lumia 920 weighs 185g maybe that's too heavy for you but consider that this L520 weighs 124g which is lighter than your Techno N7 which is 152g

Re: Nokia Announces The Lumia 520 by Bawss1(m): 6:13pm On Feb 25, 2013
@ Mr drizzy

Have you considered for a moment that if Nokia were to get on the Android team that they would risk being lost in the sea of other Android OEMs. It is obvious that they want to maintain their distinctiveness hence the WP8 choice and so far it is paying off well for them.

This decision by Nokia to use WP8 has been argued to death on this forum. Nokia's choice adds the proverbial spice to the broth, don't be close minded.

Nokia got abt $1 billion from microsoft to ensure that they use the windows platform for their devices. So Nokia won't switch to android anytime soon ...

Really, guess you have not heard that the Windows phone 8 OS is converting android users in the UK . . .So i wonder what your yapping about . . .

With Windows now holding respectable market shares across most major European countries, a key question is who is losing out? In Great Britain, 17% of new Windows customers switched from Android, 26% from Symbian, 6% from RIM and just 2% from iOS. 47% were first time smartphone buyers.

Re: Nokia Announces The Lumia 520 by oshioke2012: 10:58pm On Feb 25, 2013
all i can say about all dis is d fact dat most pple in our country are shallow minded!
windows nd android, two great os, whether its nokia base or samsung base, it doesnt matter, wat matters is d fact d pple who needs a windows os wil always stick to windows os same is 2 android. every one has its utility.
i love android fones bt i respect nokia 4 sticking 2 its own (style) brand of windows, shows class nd taughtfulnes. if every one should run 2 android, wat would d market look like then? nokia givs options
