Very, very, very goooood phone!!! Very fast and stable!!! Fantastic multitasking. U cant find anything better for this money. Nothing is perfect, so WP have some confusing things (two taps to answer; a lot of taps to save number; if u transfer google contacts to phone, u cant send message if its saved as "phone", u must change "phone" to "mobile" and u get option "SMS contact") but all this little shits will be removed by W8.1.

                        I was using Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100 almost nearly 2 years. I got bored with the Android UI. So wanted a change so I went for a Lumia. But my friend who owns a Lumia 520 said there are less apps compared to android but essential apps are available. So after a big research I bought Lumia 525 ( White Color ). Since I bought it from the Nokia Authorize dealer in Sri Lanka it cost me Rs.25000.

                        Its far more better than Android. Never lags. Colors are better than Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100. Very smooth OS. My Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100 took 3 hrs to fully charge ( I don't know whether it was only a problem in my phone ). But my new Lumia 525 only takes 1hr to fully charge. And there is a battery app. It shows the time remaining to full charge. It has USB charge as well. So its very easy. And the battery backup is very good. And the Lumia phones doesn't heat too much like Samsung.

                        It plays MP4 ( YouTube videos ) but not FLV. You can download MoliPlayer Pro / VLC Player from the Windows Phone Apps+Games Store ( but you have to pay for those apps ).

                        Overall I think its really a great phone. In every phone there are pros and cons. In this phone the cons are

                        1. There is no equalizer.
                        2. The original hands free which comes with phone sucks. You can here the background noises. Specially when you going in a bus. It really sucks. Because it doesn't really fit your ears.
                        3. When you adjust the music/video player volume, it adjust the phone ringing tone volume as well. There is no separate volume control for music/video player and phone ringing tone volume.
                        4. No flash. Photos taken at low light/night doesn't come very good compared to Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100.

                        Apart from those above cons, overall the phone is really good. I recommend this phone for android users. Since I was once an Android user. You wont get bored with UI. Trust me.

                        And the majority who comments on Lumia phones are not real owners/users of Lumia phones. They are either Apple or Samsung fans.

                          1 Gb Ram give High Performance in multitask, switching apps etc. 8 Gb internal memory is much sufficient, 6 Gb is for use. 2 Gb for OS.
                          windows 8 has best features than 7.8 OS.

                          Only lack of Apps. & Equalizer in Music.

                            manreal, 09 Apr 2014hello sir, i was planning to buy a lumia 525.so i started checking out many reviews.many times... morelumia 525 heats only at top of the phone at backside, but all samsung mobile gets heat.
                            to get a better battery backup set the screen brightness to lower lever, close all the app running at background
                            turn off vibrate, change the network settings to 2g turnoff wifi and bluetooth

                                  Excellent phone!!Have bought the phone working PERFECTLY. This is the best phone in this range. Spend a few bucks more and buy 525 not 520. No battery problem at all! Download the app 'nokia camera' It makes the camera work at its limit.
                                  Verdict:Best phone at this price range
