        Lumia 520 and 521 should be together, it is the same phone except for the provider.

          Well the 520 and 521 are the same phone, so the 520 is still more than 30% of the market.

                  The 930 is a flagship hence the price

                  Microsoft purchased NOKIA phones and soon future Futre Nokia Lumia will be known as Microsoft Lumia

                  The problen atm is there are mid range phones
                  You buy the lumia 510 in 2012 and the lumia 530 barely upgardes those 2012 specs

                  If there are no suitable phones to upgrade to (especially those with a second camera) the affordable Android phones which do have a secondary camera will be the beneficiary.

                  Churning out entry level phones only works once. a basic phone is expected to have a secondary camera

Lumia 520 costs around $140 in most of the Countries except India it has 4" bad Display with only 5MP back camera dual core with 512mb Ram and nothing good while with the same price in other OEM with ANdroid you can have 5" 720p display, Quad COre with 1GB Ram 8mp back camera and almost everything so why would someone chooses Lumia 520????

                      Make Xiaomi, Huawei, Samsung, Lenovo, Micromax and the rest of the OEMs to make good standard WP Smartphones with cheap prices and then See how it takes the market

                            When is they 730/735 coming to North America. The 835 is here, but I don't feel like spendig $300+ for a Snapdragon 400, 1gb ram phone. If the 730/735 is priced cheap enough to compete with the moto G, then I will be very interested. I need a nee phone to replace my falling apart HTC one S, until they release snap 810 enabled phones.
