UPDATED:After 1.5 YEARS Usage!.. And a fall from moving Car(50kmph) window!
What I wanna say is that, I observed most of the reviews are not actually "reviews". Don't know why people write everything that comes to their mind. Art of reviewing or being a critic needs some skills to look into things profoundly. I here by wanna list some lines that fellow reviewers wrote in their reviews which were actually funny in a way.

As of April 2013 you cannot get a better phone in this Price range.
Due to the totally fragmented market of cell phones (as far as India is concerned) customers like us are somehow getting benefited.
I personally use a HTC One X and had ordered Lumia 520 for one of my family member. Have to admit, if this product would have been sold by HTC or Samsung, it would've cost atleast 2 to 3K more. Hope Lumia 520 sets the trend of providing value...

Best buy @ this Price
1. The screen is good in color reproduction and viewing angle is also decent. However, I find it very reflective. The sunlight readability is so so... You can turn on the "touch sensitivity" to "high" if you wanna operate with it with gloves. The touch response is also good in "normal" mode.
2. The hom...

Pros:

Smooth but rarely sometimes it lags(it does not become much of a problem though).
Good Multitasking
Loudspeakers are Loud enough but sound quality gets a little downgraded at high volumes...If you prefer quality over loudness then u better listen at 20(in the scale of 30).
