    I needed a prepaid phone, when I noticed this nice Lumia 521. It was quite a change from the iPhone, but I have to say that I like my Lumia. Good quality, nice price

    Not too many apps available. First Nokia 521 I got stopped working after 6 months. I got a new one because I had a protection plan. The new one started turning off for no reason. Troubles started after 2 months of use. I never dropped, never got water damage. It is really a low quality phone.

    Got it for the $69 promotion. At that price I have absolutely no complaints. Good build, removable battery and microsd. Promise of WP8 Black update. Incredible value. useful as a backup.

    Beveled edges made for awkward grip. Power button also awkward, too recessed to push easily. The phone got poor reception in my high rise. I replaced it after two weeks.

    The Windows experience is all together different than an Android. There are many apps that are not compatible with Windows.
