Nokia Lumia 520 RM-915 8 GB Yellow, New, GSM unlocked
Brand new Nokia Lumia 520 RM-915 in yellow (listed as Yellow QX), 8 GB, the North American variant, GSM unlocked. Yellow is the signature Lumia color and the one collectors and gift resellers ask for first, and new boxed RM-915 units also serve exporters whose customers run 850/1900 MHz UMTS networks.
The Nokia Lumia 520 is the 2013 entry-level Windows Phone 8 handset that became the best-selling Lumia of all: a 4-inch WVGA IPS touchscreen with super-sensitive touch that works through gloves, a dual-core 1 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 with 512 MB of RAM, 8 GB of storage with a microSD slot, a 5-megapixel autofocus camera with Nokia's lens apps, swappable color back shells, and a 1,430 mAh battery. It carries 3G HSPA and Wi-Fi but no LTE and no front camera.
TG Wireless sells the Lumia 520 to exporters serving regions where GSM and UMTS service continues, to collectors and Windows Phone enthusiasts, and to parts dealers who need shells and donor units.

Condition: New
Brand new units in the original box with the original in-box accessories as listed. Nothing has been activated or reconditioned. If your channel needs sealed retail packaging rather than open-box new, say so when you request a quote so the account manager can confirm how the lot is packed.
Network and compatibility
The Nokia Lumia 520 is a 2G/3G (GSM/HSPA) phone with no LTE radio and no VoLTE. US 3G was retired in 2022 and T-Mobile 2G GSM on August 3, 2026, so the Lumia 520 will not get voice or data service on any US carrier today, regardless of lock state. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. It remains usable over Wi-Fi and in export markets with live UMTS networks; confirm the variant's 3G bands against the destination network.

- Exporters supplying low-cost Windows Phone handsets to regions where 3G service continues.
