The Nokia Lumia 520 is an entry-level Windows Phone 8 smartphone[5] announced by Nokia at the 2013 Mobile World Congress.[when?]

In September 2013, the Lumia 520 became the best-selling Windows device in the world, selling more units than any other model of Windows phone, PC or tablet.[6][7] By July 2014, the Lumia 520 has had 12 million activations, and has played a key part for Nokia and Microsoft.[8]

A minor successor, the Nokia Lumia 525, was later released.
