56 is from paypal which will be refunded after you put in the 4 digit code
check if its debit and credit = + 56 - 56 = 0

you should receive the case in about 10 to 15 days

6 months emi with out processing fee and interest makes the online deals sweeter for people like me

They are sweeeeeter for me too bro, but as I said earlier, due to a personal reason, buying from online is only possible, also, the phone is for my mom. If the phone was for me, it would directly be an Android and from online store even if only 500rs is less.

Nokia Lumia 520 doubles its global market share to nearly 9% of Windows Phone market

According to mobile ad network Adduplex, last month the low-end Nokia Lumia 520 held 4.4% of the global Windows Phone market. We've seen the Nokia Lumia 521 variant of this model sell out in the states through HSN, Walmart and through T-Mobile's monthly pre-paid service. Obviously Nokia has struck a chord with the public, offering a well-received combination of specs and features for the price.

Earlier on Saturday, Adduplex's Alan Mendelevich sent out a tweet to say that the Nokia Lumia 520 has doubled its global market share in the last month. At 8.8%, the phone would have an impressive grip on the Windows Phone market. Mendelevich also passed along some other information. He says that Adduplex has seen new Windows Phone 8 models made by HTC, Nokia, Huawei and Samsung. In addition, for the first time the number of Windows Phone 8 models in use surpass the number of Windows Phone 7 models still active. And not surprisingly, Lumia models monopolize the list of top selling Windows Phone models.

Mendelevich also hints that Verizon has taken over the top spot in Windows Phone 8 sales in the U.S., no doubt thanks to the Nokia Lumia 928.

Decision changed. If its 500 and above less on online stores,will be buying from online. Also, can I trust those online retailers?

Battery life? to be frank, It never dried up completely till date....
My usage: around 15 to 20 calls (maximum 30minutes talk time), 2 hour 3G usage for net browsing, Bluetooth? not often, Games? Not in day time,
Charging: over night. Will make sure it is fully charged by around 8/8:30 AM in the morning though. (One thing, It will take three hours for charging completely from 10% to 100%. bit disappointing).
When I am back in home in the evening by 7PM, about 25 - 30% battery will be available.

And for my surprise, Once I tried it without switching on bluetooth, wifi, data connection etc.. and used only for calls and in the evening it showed 96% charge left over. But when you sue 3G data connection, battery will drain off immediately and it may last maximum 3 hours if you use continuously. Though I did not used it continuosly 3 hours for data connection, I feel so.

My 3G is on 24 hours , email set as it arrives , Facebook notifications on , what's app on all the time , location services also on and 10-20 calls and it still has 45-50 % left till the end of the day .
But you are right if I don't use 3G then it might go for even 2 days .

Re: Nokia Lumia Series Smartphones Discussions and Experiences

Try if you have a option to change to 2G when you are not browsing. For getting facebook updates, emails, whatsapp does not require 3G. You can see a drastic increase in battery life.

I do not know whether you have an option to change to 2g/3g. In android, if you do not see that option, change the network settings to GSM Only to get 2G. Auto will enable 3G/2G. WCDMA enables only 3G. Most of the android ones have 'use 2G network only' check box. I do not have that. I put on GSM only when i want to get twitter/email updates. (No facebook,watsapp :( )

There is a option and you can change between 2g and 3G . But what sense it makes that we pay for 3G and use 2g . For years I have this habit of charging the phone in night .
But yes your option is great for someone who only needs email , what's app and all , my 3G is more used for browsing and downloading songs from nokia music .
