Nokia 3210 to lumia 520 or similar

barker71 · 31-05-2014, 17:37

Hi

I have a friend who currently has a 3210 and i am trying to persuade them to get a new phone.

Do you think that they would get on with a move from a 3210 to a windows phone?

Definitely

Of the smartphones, WP8 is probably the simplest and the the easiest to pick up and use.

The Nokia 520 is excellent hardware as well.

No way, the 3210 was a timeless classic.

Windows Phone is nothing like it. It would be like converting from a gramophone to an mp3 player. The Nokia 515 would probably ease the transition.

Hmm thats what i thought however the 515 is pretty expensive !!

Windows Phone is great and very simple. Try the 525, almost the same price, if not the same, except double the ram so more games and apps are useable.

I would consider the 630 also as a spiritual successor to the 520.
