I have one, but was used for about 2 mths though. It's in mint condition. Can be used with a digicel sim, not too sure about a bmobile sim. Has a screen protector on it and has a leather pouch.

i myself im trying, the battery drains so quickly sigh, anything to save battery charge.

also when you try charging the phone when it is off, it automatically turns on

Yeah...battery drain on this model is a scene but I always try and limit stuff that runs in the background when I can. I only have my e-mail and Whatsapp running constantly btw.
My screen brightness is set to low and the automatic adjuster is off as well as sunlight readability,tap+send and location is off (really sucks battery life). Even the battery saver is off. The glance is off and with regards to touch, I leave mines at normal and take off the Double tap.
That helps my battery life situation but I have grown accustomed to the touch screen vibration by now.

PS The fact that you can't set a personalised ringtone for Whatsapp notifications is failure.

but having such a great camera has me winning alot

once i get tru the day with the battery im happy, just worried that in maybe one year the battery wont last an hr when the phone gets older

Don't you have the option to disable touch screen vibration here? Works for me.

Also, any day now there will be an update for whatsapp that will introduce custom notification tones.

[d.d.s.]

Also, any day now there will be an update for whatsapp that will introduce custom notification tones.

Finally! I think this is long overdue. Wish we could've gotten it for normal sms and email too...

Agreed. All that is coming in the 8.1 update in a couple months.

*slaps own face
Well,well,well.....I didn't run the update for touch because that option was not there
Problem solved.

[speedmelter]

[AppleForLife]

I'm looking for a lumia for school

[original_lollybob]

do they allow cameras at secondary level? i'd say 520 (preferably 620)

if youre in Uni, then definitely an 820/920 or if u can afford it the 1020

I used a Lumia 925 on the Digicel network.

Pros:
great call quality and volume
very slim and svelte phone design
screen brightness quite good
battery life was good too. unplugged from 7.30am to 7.00pm and had about 15% battery life still.
Used lots of streaming, twitter, TuneIn, facebook, glance screen on, 4G, medium brightness.
Very stable OS Windows Phone 8 Lumia Black... never crashed ..not once.
tile interface is much more friendly...
8mp camera but takes great shots...
MS office built in---great if you use office apps on the go

Cons:
Can get a bit warm while charging.
Waiting on Windows Phone update 8.1 to bring new features such as the notification centre

My main issue with windows phone is the QUALITY of the apps..I did not say variety or number...just the quality. not enough of the windows phone apps are up to scratch. You usually get a 'not as good' version of the app.
For example facebook and twitter (twitter's design mainly) apps are stuck in a previous generation..constantly asking for data, late notifications, photo upload errors and facebook messenger is still quite buggy. I use football apps / media apps such as TUNEIN, THESCORE and GOAL.COM LIVE SCORE and they are just not up to the standard i was used to on android and IOS.
the keyboard is good but the Swiftkey keyboard on android is better for me.
I also have the 1520 which is a great PHONE but suffers on the app quality front.

If you simply need a reliable phone and use basic services such as whatsapp and browsing websites...it will be good.
I would like Windows Phone to be my daily driver but alas..my Samsung S4 is in that position.
