I am new to this forum so I might be post at wrong place. I want to buy Nokia Lumia 620 or 520. But I am stuck between almost 2 similar products which are 520 and 620. The only thing which is worthy in comparison is led flash in 620 (excluding minor advantage over 520 like crisper display and I know 520 has 4.0' screen). But does its led flash is really of worth of +5k ?
I am not a kind of person who loves to take pictures and share it on FB but sometimes I takes pictures on occasion like shadi biyah etc.
My second question is that can I get used lumia 620 in range of 15k Rs ?
I think you should wait for Lumia 625...it had a larger screen for one and its thinner while in about the same price range

Well my range is 15k maximum and I think it takes much time for 625 to be avaiable at 15k in used condition. One thing I forgot to ask is that whether offline maps and navigation are available in 620 and 520?

Nokia music, drive, maps. None of this is available in Pakistan.

Arghhh. Well this is not good as I want these features sometime :|
I read that on this forum that if you change your mobile location to US then you will be able to get apps. How far this is true and effective?

Yes all those apps are available but tapatalk is paid. Also windows do have a dedicated marketplace for apps just like android does.

Guys, and specifically 520 users, have you ever encountered issues with your phone where it becomes unresponsive?

Hmmm, happens to me sometimes when I connect to wifi or 3g. A quick search shows that I'm not the only one whos had this problem.

Did you get the exchangeable back shells for your lumia 520. I out to get a couple but couldn't find them in the normal shops.
Good news bro, i found a shop that has the exchange able covers .. there's a nokia care shop in main zamzama, right next to the Home Shopping Network outlet. They have a ton of Lumia related shit there that I haven't seen anywhere in karachi, branded pouches, official covers and back covers for all the lumia models that allow the back cover to be changed.

I bought one red and one cyan, replaced the default with cyan, it looks soooooooooo slick !!

the only downside is that each cover is 850/-rs a pop, a bit steep imo but whatever.

took this just now.

    BTW, i started Ghost of Tsushima, and it got me hooked within the first couple of minutes. I already know It's gonna be a memorable experience. This is how you make a proper Samurai game. Not that SJW game Ubisoft is making.

    That's still higher than it's total play length. A 5 hour campaign for a $50 game is downright scammy.

    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.
    The cross gen era really made people think 60fps would be a new standard lol

    Welp, done with Hellblade 2. Thoroughly disappointed. Such a nothing burger after the unique experience of the first game.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
