Who shouldn’t buy the Nokia Lumia 520:
Those looking for a secondary camera in their phone should definitely skip this phone . If you are an avid user of Google‘s services then also the Nokia Lumia 520 may disappoint you. There are no dedicated apps fro YouTube, Gmail etc. Even popular apps like Instagram and Flipboard are yet to arrive on Windows Phone 8. The camera though decent lacks flash, and don’t expect something out of the ordinary from it.
Those who don’t love the awesome Live-tiles interface of Windows Phone should also skip this phone. Well it’s hard to find anyone who would dislike such an awesome UI. But still there are people out there who would prefer the icons of their Android or iOS.

The verdict on Lumia 520:
So if you are a newbie out there looking to experience their first smartphone and are low on budget, then this phone is the way to go. It beats the competition hands down in all departments. If you love the freshness of Windows Phone 8 and have no problem with the lack of some apps, then Nokia Lumia 520 is for you. But if you consider yourself a power user and load up new roms on your Android everyday, then definitely this phone and this platform is not for you.
And if you have some more money to shell out, then we would definitely recommend the Micromax Canvas A116 HD. After all, it’s the budget android killer.
But as we at Inspire2rise.com have noticed, Microsoft is like a giant dog sleeping. You mess with the dog, and it will bite you in all the right places! And now with Nokia with it, the future doesn’t seem to be hazy for them.
