Review: http://www.engadget.com/2013/04/26/nokia-lumia-520-review/

We own this and the Nokia Lumia 521 (T-Mobile version) and love them both. Our Nokia 521 was recently activated on an Ultra.me prepaid plan and works great. The Nokia 520 hasn't been activated, it's used a portable media player, remote control, security webcam and offline GPS navigation.

FAQ:

Is this awesome? Yes.
Should you buy this? Yes.
Should you ask your wife first? No, I will assume the blame.

This is a great deal, even at the $59.99 I paid for mine. Offline GPS alone would make it well worth it, I've seen it said recently that its maps are actually better than Google Maps on Android.

I love it in the gym as an MP3 player. I have a 64GB microSIM in mine, got for under $30 off Amazon. It's $24.99 right now: Samsung 64GB EVO Class 10 Micro SDXC up to 48MB/s with Adapter (MB-MP64DA/AM)

I have a $10/month data/voice plan with Airvoice that's more than I'm using, the minutes have been rolling over.

The only problem with this device so far is, that the volume control is horrible.
Even at level 1, the lowest, it is far too loud.

Is that through earbuds?

What is the sound quality like for music with earbuds?

My iPod 120GB isn't going to last forever

 

[Elixer]

Nope, this is without headphones.
Never tried with earbuds (or any headphone).
I just use this as a media player / navigator (most of the time), which it is very good at.

 

[Doomer]

Shit. Another purchase I don't need but can't resist.

Thanks, time to replace my 2010 Samsung Win7 phone.

 

[RossMAN]

I'm surprised this is still available.

I bought a few as gifts for technically challenged *cough older* friends and family.

 

[TwiceOver]

In stock again. Tempting.

Wow, the deal that just won't die. Still tempted.

Still have Cricket referrals if anyone needs one.

I'd pick one up just to try a windows phone, but these all seem to be just for the att version.

If you click on the Amazon link in the OP, Amazon is selling it for $29.99 and it is in stock. So you have the option of paying $1 for "rush delivery" if you need it quickly, or you're just a baller with cash to burn.

Thanks for posting this Rossman. I bought one from the MS store on the 30th and got a shipping confirmation on the 6th so it should be here with plenty of time to spare.
Should make a nice starter phone for my son.

 

[TwiceOver]

I went ahead and got one. I'm going to see if I can rock it long enough to sell my two android phones and get one really nice android phone. And experience the pain of Windows phone for as long as I can.

I'm sure going to miss mightytext, tasker, wifi analyzer, Pocketcasts, and probably a few more.

Congrats, it will be painful especially when it comes to apps. After you sell your two phones and wait for "the one", the sacrifice will be worth it.

I've been using the 521 version and my power button broke (if you keep the camera button pressed for couple of seconds you turn on your phone anyway) ... I wonder if i should buy another phone as the cases (with buttons) go for $10

This would probably be my last windows phone, they suck the fun out of your phone .... eh maybe I am the only one.

 

[Doomer]

Ended up buying 3 of them. 2 as replacements and one as a spare. What I save over Verizon will pay for all 3 in less than a month. Now that's a good deal.

[bunnyfubbles]

so tempted to pick one up just to play with a windows phone, seems worth it just for the offline maps from everything I've heard/read. But I have an HTC One S as a spare that is still better than the 520 in just about every way other than supporting microSD expansion (up to 64GB), going to hold out for another sale on the 530/635
